ALMA Imaging of HCN, CS and dust in Arp 220 and NGC 6240

Nick Scoville, Kartik Sheth, Fabian Walter +19

We report ALMA Band 7 (350 GHz) imaging at 0.4 - 0.6arcsec resolution and Band 9 (696 GHz) at ~0.25arcsec resolution of the luminous IR galaxies Arp 220 and NGC 6240. The long wave…

High-lying OH absorption, [C II] deficits, and extreme ratios in galaxies

E. González-Alfonso, J. Fischer, E. Sturm +22

Herschel/PACS observations of 29 local (Ultra-)Luminous Infrared Galaxies, including both starburst and AGN-dominated sources as diagnosed in the mid-infrared/optical, show that th…

The host galaxies of X-ray selected Active Galactic Nuclei to z=2.5: Structure, star-formation and their relationships from CANDELS and Herschel/PACS

D. J. Rosario, D. H. McIntosh, A. van der Wel +60

We study the relationship between the structure and star-formation rate (SFR) of X-ray selected low and moderate luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the two Chandra Deep Fi…

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…

The Galactic Center cloud G2 and its gas streamer

Oliver Pfuhl, Stefan Gillessen, Frank Eisenhauer +10

We present new, deep near-infrared SINFONI @ VLT integral field spectroscopy of the gas cloud G2 in the Galactic Center, from late summer 2013 and spring 2014. G2 is visible in rec…

A Consistent Study of Metallicity Evolution at 0.8 < z < 2.6

Eva Wuyts, Jaron Kurk, Natascha M. Förster Schreiber +33

We present the correlations between stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR) and [NII]/Ha flux ratio as indicator of gas-phase metallicity for a sample of 222 galaxies at 0.8 < z <…

The Nuclear Cluster of the Milky Way: Total Mass and Luminosity (long version)

Tobias K. Fritz, Sotiris Chatzopoulos, Ortwin Gerhard +6

Like many other late-type galaxies, the Milky Way contains a nuclear star cluster. In this work we obtain the basic properties of its dominant old stellar population. Firstly, we d…

The old nuclear star cluster in the Milky Way: dynamics, mass, statistical parallax, and black hole mass

Sotiris Chatzopoulos, Tobias Fritz, Ortwin Gerhard +4

We derive new constraints on the mass, rotation, orbit structure and statistical parallax of the Galactic old nuclear star cluster (NSC) and the mass of the supermassive black hole…

Bulge Growth and Quenching since z = 2.5 in CANDELS/3D-HST

Philipp Lang, Stijn Wuyts, Rachel S. Somerville +20

Exploiting the deep high-resolution imaging of all 5 CANDELS fields, and accurate redshift information provided by 3D-HST, we investigate the relation between structure and stellar…

On the Origin of Young Stars at the Galactic Center

Ann-Marie Madigan, Oliver Pfuhl, Yuri Levin +3

The center of our galaxy is home to a massive black hole, SgrA*, and a nuclear star cluster containing stellar populations of various ages. While the late type stars may be too old…
