Spectral Synthesis of SDSS Galaxies
L. Sodre, R. Cid Fernandes, A. Mateus +2
We investigate the power of spectral synthesis as a mean to estimate physical properties of galaxies. Spectral synthesis is nothing more than the decomposition of an observed spect…
Can the Local Supercluster explain the low CMB multipoles?
L. Raul Abramo, L. Sodre
We show that the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect caused by hot electrons in the Local Supercluster (LSC) can explain the abnormal quadrupole and octopole of the cosmic microwave b…
The Environmental Dependence of Star Formation in the Nearby Universe
Laerte Sodre, Abilio Mateus
We have investigated how the incidence of star-forming galaxies varies with the environment using a volume-limited sample of nearby galaxy spectra extracted from the 2dF Galaxy Red…
The Emission Line Sequence of Normal Spiral Galaxies
Laerte Sodre, Grazyna Stasinska
We have analyzed the emission line properties in the integrated spectra of 15 normal spiral galaxies. We show that very clear trends appear when plotting relevant emission line rat…
