Two-dimensional multi-component photometric decomposition of CALIFA galaxies

J. Mendez-Abreu, T. Ruiz-Lara, L. Sanchez-Menguiano +20

We present a two-dimensional multi-component photometric decomposition of 404 galaxies from the CALIFA Data Release 3. They represent all possible galaxies with no clear signs of i…

Stellar kinematics across the Hubble sequence in the CALIFA survey: General properties and aperture corrections

J. Falcón-Barroso, M. Lyubenova, G. van de Ven +32

We present the stellar kinematic maps of a large sample of galaxies from the integral-field spectroscopic survey CALIFA. The sample comprises 300 galaxies displaying a wide range o…

MUSE Deep-Fields: The Lya Luminosity Function in the Hubble Deep Field South at 2.91 < z < 6.64

Alyssa B. Drake, Bruno Guiderdoni, Jeremy Blaizot +14

We present the first estimate of the Lyα luminosity function using blind spectroscopy from the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer, MUSE, in the Hubble Deep Field South. Using automa…

The dependence of oxygen and nitrogen abundances on stellar mass from the CALIFA survey

E. Pérez-Montero, R. García-Benito, J. M. Vílchez +20

We analysed the optical spectra of HII regions extracted from a sample of 350 galaxies of the CALIFA survey. We calculated total O/H abundances and, for the first time, N/O ratios…

The Califa and Hipass velocity function for all morphological galaxy types

S. Bekeraitė, C. J. Walcher, L. Wisotzki +17

The velocity function is a fundamental observable statistic of the galaxy population, similarly impor- tant as the luminosity function, but much more difficult to measure. In this…

IMF shape constraints from stellar populations and dynamics from CALIFA

M. Lyubenova, I. Martín-Navarro, G. van de Ven +22

In this letter we describe how we use stellar dynamics information to constrain the shape of the stellar IMF in a sample of 27 early-type galaxies from the CALIFA survey. We obtain…

Photoionization models of the CALIFA HII regions. I. Hybrid models

C. Morisset, G. Delgado-Inglada, S. F. Sánchez +7

Photoionization models of HII regions require as input a description of the ionizing SED and of the gas distribution, in terms of ionization parameter U and chemical abundances (e.…

Aperture effects on the oxygen abundance determinations from CALIFA data

J. Iglesias-Páramo, J. M. Vílchez, F. F. Rosales-Ortega +23

This paper aims at providing aperture corrections for emission lines in a sample of spiral galaxies from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area Survey (CALIFA) database. In part…

MusE GAs FLOw and Wind (MEGAFLOW) I: First MUSE results on background quasars

Ilane Schroetter, Nicolas Bouché, Martin Wendt +13

The physical properties of galactic winds are one of the keys to understand galaxy formation and evolution. These properties can be constrained thanks to background quasar lines of…

Ubiquitous giant Ly nebulae around the brightest quasars at revealed with MUSE

Elena Borisova, Sebastiano Cantalupo, Simon J. Lilly +17

Direct Ly imaging of intergalactic gas at has recently revealed giant cosmological structures around quasars, e.g. the Slug Nebula (Cantalupo et al. 2014). Despite the…

Nearby supernova host galaxies from the CALIFA Survey: II. SN environmental metallicity

L. Galbany, V. Stanishev, A. M. Mourão +16

The metallicity of a supernova (SN) progenitor, together with its mass, is one of the main parameters that rules their outcome. We present a metallicity study of 115 nearby SN host…

CALIFA, the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey: IV. Third Public data release

S. F. Sánchez, R. García-Benito, S. Zibetti +60

This paper describes the Third Public Data Release (DR3) of the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) survey. Science-grade quality data for 667 galaxies are made public,…

Spatially-Resolved Star Formation Main Sequence of Galaxies in the CALIFA Survey

M. Cano-Díaz, S. F. Sánchez, S. Zibetti +17

The "main sequence of galaxies" defined in terms of the total star formation rate vs. the total stellar mass is a well-studied tight relation that has been observ…

Shape of the oxygen abundance profiles in CALIFA face-on spiral galaxies

L. Sánchez-Menguiano, S. F. Sánchez, I. Pérez +25

We measured the gas abundance profiles in a sample of 122 face-on spiral galaxies observed by the CALIFA survey and included all spaxels whose line emission was consistent with sta…
