Detection of companion galaxies around hot dust-obscured hyper-luminous galaxy W0410-0913
M. Ginolfi, E. Piconcelli, L. Zappacosta +18
The phase transition between galaxies and quasars is often identified with the rare population of hyper-luminous, hot dust-obscured galaxies. Galaxy formation models predict these…
Faint progenitors of luminous quasars: why don't we see them?
Edwige Pezzulli, Rosa Valiante, Maria C. Orofino +3
Observational searches for faint active nuclei at have been extremely elusive, with a few candidates whose high- nature is still to be confirmed. Interpreting this lack…
Limits on Pop III star formation with the most iron-poor stars
M. de Bennassuti, S. Salvadori, R. Schneider +2
We study the impact of star-forming mini-haloes, and the Initial Mass Function (IMF) of Population III (Pop III) stars, on the Galactic halo Metallicity Distribution Function (MDF)…
Interpreting the evolution of galaxy colours from to
Mattia Mancini, Raffaella Schneider, Luca Graziani +4
We attempt to interpret existing data on the evolution of the UV luminosity function and UV colours, , of galaxies at , to improve our understanding of their du…
Decoding the stellar fossils of the dusty Milky Way progenitors
Matteo de Bennassuti, Raffaella Schneider, Rosa Valiante +1
We investigate the metallicity distribution function (MDF) in the Galactic halo and the relative fraction of Carbon-normal and Carbon-rich stars. To this aim, we use an improved ve…
High-redshift quasars host galaxies: is there a stellar mass crisis?
Rosa Valiante, Raffaella Schneider, Stefania Salvadori +1
We investigate the evolutionary properties of a sample of quasars at 5<z<6.4 using the semi-analytical hierarchical model GAMETE/QSOdust. We find that the observed properties of th…
