Black hole feedback and the evolution of massive early-type galaxies
Ignacio Martin-Navarro, Joseph N. Burchett, Mar Mezcua
Observationally, constraining the baryonic cycle within massive galaxies has proven to be quite difficult. In particular, the role of black hole feedback in regulating star formati…
Quantifying the effect of black hole feedback from the central galaxy on the satellite populations of groups and clusters
Ignacio Martin-Navarro, Joseph N. Burchett, Mar Mezcua
Super-massive black holes are fundamental ingredients in our theoretical understanding of galaxy formation. They are likely the only sources energetic enough to regulate star forma…
IMF radial gradients in most massive early-type galaxies
F. La Barbera, A. Vazdekis, I. Ferreras +8
Using new long-slit spectroscopy obtained with X-Shooter at ESO-VLT, we study, for the first time, radial gradients of optical and Near-Infrared IMF-sensitive features in a represe…
Constraining nuclear star cluster formation using MUSE-AO observations of the early-type galaxy FCC47
Katja Fahrion, Mariya Lyubenova, Glenn van de Ven +12
Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are found in at least 70% of all galaxies, but their formation path is still unclear. In the most common scenarios, NSCs form in-situ from the galaxy's…
The Fornax3D project: Tracing the assembly history of the cluster from the kinematic and line-strength maps
E. Iodice, M. Sarzi, A. Bittner +15
The 31 brightest galaxies (m_B < 15 mag) inside the virial radius of the Fornax cluster were observed from the centres to the outskirts with the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer o…
Star formation quenching imprinted on the internal structure of naked red nuggets
Ignacio Martín-Navarro, Glenn van de Ven, Akın Yıldırım
The formation and assembly process of massive galaxies is a combination of two phases: an initial in-situ-dominated one followed by an ex-situ-dominated evolution. Separating these…
The Fornax 3D project: a two-dimensional view of the stellar initial mass function in the massive lenticular galaxy FCC 167
I. Martin-Navarro, M. Lyubenova, G. van de Ven +12
The stellar initial mass function (IMF) regulates the baryonic cycle within galaxies, and is a key ingredient to translate observations into physical quantities. Although for decad…
Extreme chemical abundance ratio suggesting an exotic origin for an ultra-diffuse galaxy
Ignacio Martin-Navarro, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Jean P. Brodie +7
Ultra diffuse galaxies are a population of extended galaxies but with relatively low luminosities. The origin of these objects remains unclear, largely due to the observational cha…
