Serendipitous discovery of an optical emission line jet in NGC\,232

C. Lopez-Coba, S. F. Sanchez, I. Cruz-Gonzalez +9

We report the detection of a highly collimated linear emission-line structure in the spiral galaxy NGC\,232 through the use of integral field spectroscopy data from the All-weather…

Orbital decomposition of CALIFA spiral galaxies

Ling Zhu, Remco van den Bosch, Glenn van de Ven +9

Schwarzschild orbit-based dynamical models are widely used to uncover the internal dynamics of early-type galaxies and globular clusters. Here we present for the first time the Sch…

Star formation in the local Universe from the CALIFA sample. II. Activation and quenching mechanisms in bulges, bars, and disks

C. Catalán-Torrecilla, A. Gil de Paz, A. Castillo-Morales +22

We estimate the current extinction-corrected H star formation rate (SFR) of the different morphological components that shape galaxies (bulges, bars, and disks). We use a multi-…

The spatially-resolved star formation histories of CALIFA galaxies: Implications for galaxy formation

R. M. González Delgado, E. Pérez, R. Cid Fernandes +9

This paper presents the spatially resolved star formation history (SFH) of nearby galaxies with the aim of furthering our understanding of the different processes involved in the f…

Arm and interarm abundance gradients in CALIFA spiral galaxies

L. Sánchez-Menguiano, S. F. Sánchez, I. Pérez +23

Spiral arms are the most singular features in disc galaxies. These structures can exhibit different patterns, namely grand design and flocculent arms, with easily distinguishable c…

Observational hints for radial migration in disc galaxies from CALIFA

T. Ruiz-Lara, I. Pérez, E. Florido +22

Context: According to numerical simulations, stars are not always kept at their birth galactocentric distances but migrate. The importance of this radial migration in shaping galac…
