The WEAVE-TwiLight-Survey: Expanding WEAVE's Reach to Bright and Low-Surface-Density Targets with a Novel Observing Mode
Thomas Hajnik, Nicholas A. Walton, Giuseppe D'Ago +28
Current-day multi-object spectroscopic surveys are often limited in their ability to observe bright stars due to their low surface densities, resulting in increased observational o…
Star formation histories of Coma Cluster galaxies matched to simulated orbits hint at quenching around first pericenter
A. K. Upadhyay, K. A. Oman, S. C. Trager
By tracing the orbital and star formation histories of galaxies within the Coma cluster, we seek to understand the role of the high-density cluster environment in quenching these g…
Are the total mass density and the low-mass end slope of the IMF anti-correlated?
C. Spiniello, M. Barnabè, L. V. E. Koopmans +1
We conduct a detailed lensing, dynamics and stellar population analysis of nine massive lens early-type galaxies (ETGs) from the X-Shooter Lens Survey (XLENS). Combining gravitatio…
CALIFA, the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. III. Second public data release
R. García-Benito, S. Zibetti, S. F. Sánchez +68
This paper describes the Second Public Data Release (DR2) of the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) survey. The data for 200 objects are made public, including the 100…
Science Case and Requirements for the MOSAIC Concept for a Multi-Object Spectrograph for the European Extremely Large Telescope
C. J. Evans, M. Puech, B. Barbuy +55
Over the past 18 months we have revisited the science requirements for a multi-object spectrograph (MOS) for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT). These efforts span the…
Rest-frame ultra-violet spectra of massive galaxies at z=3: evidence of high-velocity outflows
W. Karman, K. I. Caputi, S. C. Trager +2
Galaxy formation models invoke the presence of strong feedback mechanisms that regulate the growth of massive galaxies at high redshifts. In this paper we aim to: (1) confirm spect…
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…
An indirect measurement of gas evolution in galaxies at
G. Popping, K. I. Caputi, R. S. Somerville +1
One key piece of information missing from high redshift galaxy surveys is the galaxies' cold gas contents. We present a new method to indirectly determine cold gas surface densitie…
The X-Shooter Lens Survey - I. Dark-Matter Domination and a Salpeter-type IMF in a Massive Early-type Galaxy
C. Spiniello, L. V. E. Koopmans, S. C. Trager +2
We present the first results from the X-shooter Lens Survey (XLENS): an analysis of the massive early-type galaxy SDSS J1148+1930 at redshift z=0.444. We combine its extended kinem…
Evidence for intermediate-age stellar populations in early-type galaxies from K-band spectroscopy
E. Mármol-Queraltó, N. Cardiel, P. Sánchez-Blázquez +7
The study of stellar populations in early-type galaxies in different environments is a powerful tool for constraining their star formation histories. This study has been traditiona…
RR Lyrae Variables in Two Fields in the Spheroid of M31
Ata Sarajedini, Conor L. Mancone, Tod R. Lauer +5
We present Hubble Space Telescope observations taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys Wide Field Channel of two fields near M32 - between four and six kpc from the center of M3…
Stellar Population Models and Individual Element Abundances II: Stellar Spectra and Integrated Light Models
H. -c. Lee, G. Worthey, A. Dotter +7
The first paper in this series explored the effects of altering the chemical mixture of the stellar population on an element by element basis on stellar evolutionary tracks and iso…
