From galaxy-scale fueling to nuclear-scale feedback: the merger-state of radio galaxies 3C293, 3C305 & 4C12.50
Bjorn Emonts, Raffaella Morganti, Montserrat Villar-Martin +5
Powerful radio galaxies are often associated with gas-rich galaxy mergers. These mergers may provide the fuel to trigger starburst and active galactic nuclear (AGN) activity. In th…
The Mt John University Observatory Search For Earth-mass Planets In The Habitable Zone Of Alpha Centauri
M. Endl, C. Bergmann, J. Hearnshaw +6
The "holy grail" in planet hunting is the detection of an Earth-analog: a planet with similar mass as the Earth and an orbit inside the habitable zone. If we can find such an Earth…
The disc-dominated host galaxy of FR-I radio source B2 0722+30
B. H. C. Emonts, C. N. Tadhunter, R. Morganti +4
We present new observational results that conclude that the nearby radio galaxy B2 0722+30 is one of the very few known disc galaxies in the low-redshift Universe that host a class…
From major merger to radio galaxy: low surface-brightness stellar counterpart to the giant HI ring around B2 0648+27
B. H. C. Emonts, R. Morganti, J. H. van Gorkom +3
We present the detection of a low surface-brightness stellar counterpart to an enormous (190 kpc) ring of neutral hydrogen (HI) gas that surrounds the nearby radio galaxy B2 0648+2…
Automatic Observation Rendering (AMORE) I. On a synthetic stellar population's colour-magnitude diagram
Y. K. Ng, E. Brogt, C. Chiosi +1
A new method, AMORE - based on a genetic algorithm optimizer, is presented for the automated study of colour-magnitude diagrams. The method combines several stellar population synt…
The rise and fall of V4334 Sgr (Sakurai's Object)
H. W. Duerbeck, W. Liller, C. Sterken +10
CCD UBVRi photometry of the final helium flash object V4334 Sgr (Sakurai's Object), carried out during 1997 - 1999, is presented, and the light curve from its pre-discovery rise to…
