Integral field spectroscopy of nearby QSOs: I. ENLR size-luminosity relation, ongoing star formation & resolved gas-phase metallicities

B. Husemann, K. Jahnke, S. F. Sánchez +4

[abridged] We present optical integral field spectroscopy for a flux-limited sample of 19 QSOs at z<0.2 and spatially resolve their ionized gas properties at a physical resolution…

The star formation history of CALIFA galaxies: Radial structures

R. M. González Delgado, E. Pérez, R. Cid Fernandes +24

We study the radial structure of the stellar mass surface density () and stellar population age as a function of the total stellar mass and morphology for a sample of 107 galaxi…

An Integral View of Balmer-dominated Shocks in Supernova Remnants

Sladjana Nikolić, Glenn van de Ven, Kevin Heng +5

We present integral-field spectroscopic observations with the VIMOS-IFU at the VLT of fast (2000-3000 km/s) Balmer-dominated shocks surrounding the northwestern rim of the remnant…

The Mass-Metallicity relation explored with CALIFA: I. Is there a dependence on the star formation rate?

S. F. Sanchez, F. F. Rosales-Ortega, B. Jungwiert +40

We present the results on the study of the global and local M-Z relation based on the first data available from the CALIFA survey (150 galaxies). This survey provides integral fiel…

An Integral View of Fast Shocks around Supernova 1006

Sladjana Nikolić, Glenn van de Ven, Kevin Heng +5

Supernova remnants are among the most spectacular examples of astrophysical pistons in our cosmic neighborhood. The gas expelled by the supernova explosion is launched with velocit…

CALIFA, the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. II. First public data release

CALIFA collaboration, B. Husemann, K. Jahnke +74

We present the first public data release of the CALIFA survey. It consists of science-grade optical datacubes for the first 100 of eventually 600 nearby (0.005<z<0.03) galaxies, ob…
