Discovery of true, likely and possible symbiotic stars in the dwarf spheroidal NGC 205

Denise R. Gonçalves, Laura Magrini, Ignacio G. de la Rosa +1

In this paper we discuss the photometric and spectroscopic observations of newly discovered (symbiotic) systems in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy NGC 205. The Gemini Multi-Object Spec…

A tale of a rich cluster at z0.8 as seen by the Star Formation Histories of its ETGs

Anna Ferré-Mateu, Patricia Sánchez-Blázquez, Alexandre Vazdekis +1

We present a detailed stellar population analysis for a sample of 24 early-type galaxies belonging to the rich cluster RXJ0152.7-1357 at z=0.83. We have derived the age, metallicit…

SPIDER X - Environmental effects in central and satellite early-type galaxies through the stellar fossil record

F. La Barbera, A. Pasquali, I. Ferreras +3

A detailed analysis of how environment affects the star formation history of early-type galaxies (ETGs) is undertaken via high signal to noise ratio stacked spectra obtained from a…

SPIDER VIII - Constraints on the Stellar Initial Mass Function of Early-type Galaxies from a Variety of Spectral Features

F. La Barbera, I. Ferreras, A. Vazdekis +5

We perform a spectroscopic study to constrain the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) by using a large sample of 24,781 early-type galaxies from the SDSS-based SPIDER survey. Clear…

The impact of a non-universal Initial Mass Function on the Star Formation Histories of Early-Type Galaxies

Anna Ferré-Mateu, Alexandre Vazdekis, Ignacio G. de la Rosa

Recent results on the non-universality of the Initial Mass Function (IMF) have shown strong evidence of IMF variations with galaxy velocity dispersion, with a corresponding impact…

Systematic variation of the stellar Initial Mass Function with velocity dispersion in early-type galaxies

I. Ferreras, F. La Barbera, R. R. de Carvalho +4

An essential component of galaxy formation theory is the stellar initial mass function (IMF), that describes the parent distribution of stellar mass in star forming regions. We pre…
