Field Camera Unit for WSO-UV: Phase A Study Report
I. Pagano, F. Bacciotti, L. Bedin +33
World Space Observatory UltraViolet (WSO-UV) is a multipurpose space observatory, made by a 170 cm aperture telescope, capable of UV high-resolution spectroscopy, long slit low-res…
On the radial distribution of white dwarfs in the Galactic globular cluster Omega Cen
A. Calamida, C. E. Corsi, G. Bono +14
We present deep and accurate photometry (F435W, F625W, F658N) of the Galactic Globular Cluster Omega Cen collected with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) on board the Hubble Sp…
Lyman Break Galaxies in the VLT/FORS2 spectroscopic campaign in the GOODS-S field
E. Vanzella, S. Cristiani, M. Dickinson +5
We present initial results from our ongoing campaign of spectroscopic identifications of Lyman--break galaxies (LBGs) at z ~ 4, 5 and 6 with FORS2 at the ESO VLT. The sample of LBG…
The luminosity function of high-redshift QSOs
Fabio Fontanot, Stefano Cristiani, Pierluigi Monaco +5
We measure the luminosity function of QSOs in the redshift range 3.5 < z < 5.2 for the absolute magnitude interval -21 < M_{145} < -28. Suitable criteria are defined to select fain…
The Carina dSph galaxy: where is the edge?
G. Bono, M. Monelli, A. R. Walker +13
Recent cosmological N-body simulations suggest that current empirical estimates of tidal radii in dSphs might be underestimated by at least one order of magnitude. To constrain the…
Tracing the evolution of massive galaxies up to z \sim 3
M. Longhetti, P. Saracco, S. Cristiani +4
A census of massive galaxies at redshift increasingly higher than 1 may provide strong constraints on the history of mass assembly and of star formation. Here we report on t…
