Mapping the core of the Tarantula Nebula with VLT-MUSE: I. Spectral and nebular content around R136
N. Castro, P. A. Crowther, C. J. Evans +5
We introduce VLT-MUSE observations of the central 2 (3030 pc) of the Tarantula Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The observations provide an unprecedented sp…
Stellar content of extremely red quiescent galaxies at z>2
M. Lopez-Corredoira, A. Vazdekis, C. M. Gutierrez +1
CONTEXT. A set of 20 extremely red galaxies at 2.5<z<3.8 with photometric features of old passive-evolving galaxies without dust, with stellar masses of ~10^{11} M_sun, have colors…
Fossil Group Origins VII. Galaxy substructures in fossil systems
S. Zarattini, M. Girardi, J. A. L. Aguerri +9
Fossil groups are expected to be the final product of galaxy merging within galaxy groups. In simulations, they are predicted to assemble their mass at high redshift. This early fo…
Fossil group origins V. The dependence of the luminosity function on the magnitude gap
S. Zarattini, J. A. L Aguerri, R. Sanchez-Janssen +11
In nature we observe galaxy aggregations that span a wide range of magnitude gaps between the two first-ranked galaxies of a system (). There are systems with gaps close t…
The central region of spiral galaxies as seen by Herschel. M81, M99 and M100
M. Sauvage, N. Sacchi, G. J. Bendo +57
With appropriate spatial resolution, images of spiral galaxies in thermal infrared (~10 micron and beyond) often reveal a bright central component, distinct from the stellar bulge,…
