The nature of LINER galaxies: Ubiquitous hot old stars and rare accreting black holes

R. Singh, G. van de Ven, K. Jahnke +19

Galaxies, which often contain ionised gas, sometimes also exhibit a so-called low-ionisation nuclear emission line region (LINER). For 30 years this was attributed to a central mas…

Discovery of a Quadruple Lens in CANDELS with a Record Lens Redshift z=1.53

A. van der Wel, G. van de Ven, M. Maseda +10

Using spectroscopy from the Large Binocular Telescope and imaging from the Hubble Space Telescope we discovered the first strong galaxy lens at z(lens)>1. The lens has a secure pho…

Discrete dynamical modelling of omega Centauri

Laura L. Watkins, Glenn van de Ven, Mark den Brok +1

We present a new framework for modelling discrete kinematic data. Current techniques typically involve binning. Our approach works directly with the discrete data and uses maximum-…
