Composite Bulges: The Coexistence of Classical Bulges and Disky Pseudobulges in S0 and Spiral Galaxies

Peter Erwin, Roberto P. Saglia, Maximilian Fabricius +6

We study nine S0-Sb galaxies with (photometric) bulges consisting of two distinct components. The outer component is a flattened, kinematically cool, disklike structure: a "disky p…

The first planet detected in the WTS: an inflated hot-Jupiter in a 3.35 day orbit around a late F-star [ERRATUM]

M. Cappetta, R. P. Saglia, J. L. Birkby +35

We report the discovery of WTS-1b, the first extrasolar planet found by the WFCAM Transit Survey, which began observations at the 3.8-m United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (UKIRT) in…

Using 3D Spectroscopy to Probe the Orbital Structure of Composite Bulges

Peter Erwin, Roberto Saglia, Jens Thomas +6

Detailed imaging and spectroscopic analysis of the centers of nearby S0 and spiral galaxies shows the existence of "composite bulges", where both classical bulges and disky pseudob…

Evolution of central dark matter of early-type galaxies up to z ~ 0.8

C. Tortora, N. R. Napolitano, R. P. Saglia +3

We investigate the evolution of dark and luminous matter in the central regions of early-type galaxies (ETGs) up to z ~ 0.8. We use a spectroscopically selected sample of 154 clust…

The KMOS^3D Survey: design, first results, and the evolution of galaxy kinematics from 0.7<z<2.7

E. Wisnioski, N. M. Förster Schreiber, S. Wuyts +24

We present the KMOS^3D survey, a new integral field survey of over 600 galaxies at 0.7<z<2.7 using KMOS at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). The KMOS^3D survey utilizes synergies wit…

Combining Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data with Near Infrared Data from the ESO VISTA Hemisphere Survey

Manda Banerji, S. Jouvel, H. Lin +74

We present the combination of optical data from the Science Verification phase of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) with near infrared data from the ESO VISTA Hemisphere Survey (VHS). T…
