Reconstructing the distribution of haloes and mock galaxies below the resolution limit in cosmological simulations

Sylvain de la Torre, John A. Peacock

We present a method for populating dark matter simulations with haloes of mass below the resolution limit. It is based on stochastically sampling a field derived from the density f…

The cosmic evolution of oxygen and nitrogen abundances in star-forming galaxies over the past 10 Gyrs

E. Perez-Montero, T. Contini, F. Lamareille +35

The chemical evolution of galaxies on a cosmological timescale is still a matter of debate despite the increasing number of available data provided by spectroscopic surveys of star…

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): spectral classification through Principal Component Analysis

A. Marchetti, B. R. Granett, L. Guzzo +51

We develop a Principal Component Analysis aimed at classifying a sub-set of 27,350 spectra of galaxies in the range 0.4 < z < 1.0 collected by the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshi…

Environmental effects in the interaction and merging of galaxies in zCOSMOS survey

P. Kampczyk, S. J. Lilly, the zCOSMOS Collaboration

The zCOSMOS-bright 10k spectroscopic sample reveals a strong environmental dependence of close kinematic galaxy pair fractions in the redshift range 0.2 < z < 1. The fraction of cl…

Probing deviations from General Relativity with the Euclid spectroscopic survey

Elisabetta Majerotto, Luigi Guzzo, Lado Samushia +10

We discuss the ability of the planned Euclid mission to detect deviations from General Relativity using its extensive redshift survey of more than 50 Million galaxies. Constraints…

Comparison of star formation rates from Halpha and infrared luminosities as seen by Herschel

H. Domínguez, M. Mignoli, F. Pozzi +55

We empirically test the relation between the SFR(LIR) derived from the infrared luminosity, LIR, and the SFR(Ha) derived from the Ha emission line luminosity using simple conversio…
