SDSS IV MaNGA: Deep observations of extra-planar, diffuse ionized gas around late-type galaxies from stacked IFU spectra

A. Jones, G. Kauffmann, R. D'Souza +16

We have conducted a study of extra-planar diffuse ionized gas using the first year data from the MaNGA IFU survey. We have stacked spectra from 49 edge-on, late-type galaxies as a…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Spatially resolved star formation histories in galaxies as a function of galaxy mass and type

Daniel Goddard, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +25

We study the internal gradients of stellar population properties within for a representative sample of 721 galaxies with stellar masses ranging between $10^{9}\;M_…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: stellar population gradients as a function of galaxy environment

Daniel Goddard, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +23

We study the internal radial gradients of stellar population properties within and analyse the impact of galaxy environment. We use a representative sample of 721…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: environmental dependence of stellar age and metallicity gradients in nearby galaxies

Zheng Zheng, Huiyuan Wang, Junqiang Ge +20

We present a study on the stellar age and metallicity distributions for 1105 galaxies using the STARLIGHT software on MaNGA integral field spectra. We derive age and metallicity gr…

Hubble Space Telescope Proper Motions of Individual Stars in Stellar Streams: Orphan, Sagittarius, Lethe, and the New "Parallel" Stream

Sangmo Tony Sohn, Roeland P. van der Marel, Nitya Kallivayalil +6

We present a multi-epoch Hubble Space Telescope (HST) study of stellar proper motions (PMs) for four fields along the Orphan Stream. We determine absolute PMs of several individual…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Bulge-Disc Decomposition of IFU Datacubes (BUDDI)

Evelyn J. Johnston, Boris Haeussler, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca +12

With the availability of large integral-field unit (IFU) spectral surveys of nearby galaxies, there is now the potential to extract spectral information from across the bulges and…

Zooming into local active galactic nuclei: The power of combining SDSS-IV MaNGA with higher resolution integral field unit observations

Dominika Wylezalek, Allan Schnorr Müller, Nadia L. Zakamska +9

Ionised gas outflows driven by active galactic nuclei (AGN) are ubiquitous in high luminosity AGN with outflow speeds apparently correlated with the total bolometric luminosity of…

Do galaxy global relationships emerge from local ones? The SDSS IV MaNGA surface mass density-metallicity relation

Jorge K. Barrera-Ballesteros, Timothy M. Heckman, Guangtun B. Zhu +12

We present the stellar surface mass density {\it vs.} gas metallicity () relation for more than 500,000 spatially-resolved star-forming resolution elements (spaxels) from a…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Faint quenched galaxies I- Sample selection and evidence for environmental quenching

Samantha J. Penny, Karen L. Masters, Anne-Marie Weijmans +21

Using kinematic maps from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) survey, we reveal that the majority of low-mass quenched g…

SDSS IV MaNGA - The spatially resolved transition from star formation to quiescence

Francesco Belfiore, Roberto Maiolino, Claudia Maraston +19

Using spatially resolved spectroscopy from SDSS-IV MaNGA we have demonstrated that low ionisation emission line regions (LIERs) in local galaxies result from photoionisation by hot…

SDSS-IV MaNGA IFS Galaxy Survey --- Survey Design, Execution, and Initial Data Quality

Renbin Yan, Kevin Bundy, David R. Law +47

The MaNGA Survey (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory) is one of three core programs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV. It is obtaining integral field spectroscopy…

Suppressing star formation in quiescent galaxies with supermassive black hole winds

Edmond Cheung, Kevin Bundy, Michele Cappellari +22

Quiescent galaxies with little or no ongoing star formation dominate the galaxy population above , where their numbers have increased by a fac…

SDSS IV MaNGA - Spatially resolved diagnostic diagrams: A proof that many galaxies are LIERs

Francesco Belfiore, Roberto Maiolino, Claudia Maraston +17

We study the spatially resolved excitation properties of the ionised gas in a sample of 646 galaxies using integral field spectroscopy data from SDSS-IV MaNGA. Making use of Baldwi…
