No direct coupling between bending of galaxy disc stellar age and light profiles

T. Ruiz-Lara, I. Pérez, E. Florido +19

We study the stellar properties of 44 face-on spiral galaxies from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey via full spectrum fitting techniques. We compare the age profile…

Outer-disk reddening and gas-phase metallicities: The CALIFA connection

R. A. Marino, A. Gil de Paz, S. F. Sánchez +27

We study, for the first time in a statistically significant and well-defined sample, the relation between the outer-disk ionized-gas metallicity gradients and the presence of break…

Star Formation in the Local Universe from the CALIFA sample. I. Calibrating the SFR using IFS data

C. Catalán-Torrecilla, A. Gil de Paz, A. Castillo-Morales +24

The Star Formation Rate (SFR) is one of the main parameters used to analyze the evolution of galaxies through time. The need for recovering the light reprocessed by dust commonly r…

The CALIFA survey across the Hubble sequence: Spatially resolved stellar population properties in galaxies

R. M. González Delgado, R. García-Benito, E. Pérez +32

This paper characterizes the radial structure of stellar population properties of galaxies in the nearby universe, based on 300 galaxies from the CALIFA survey. The sample covers a…

Evolutionary stellar population synthesis with MILES - II. Scaled-solar and α-enhanced models

A. Vazdekis, P. Coelho, S. Cassisi +6

We present models that predict spectra of old- and intermediate-aged stellar populations at 2.51Å (FWHM) with varying [α/Fe] abundance. The models are based on the MILES library an…

Bar pattern speeds in CALIFA galaxies: I. Fast bars across the Hubble sequence

J. A. L. Aguerri, J. Méndez-Abreu, J. Falcón-Barroso +25

The bar pattern speed () is defined as the rotational frequency of the bar, and it determines the bar dynamics. Several methods have been proposed for measuring $Ω_{\rm…
