Evidence for supernova feedback sustaining gas turbulence in nearby star-forming galaxies
Cecilia Bacchini, Filippo Fraternali, Giuliano Iorio +3
It is well known that gas in galaxy discs is highly turbulent, but there is much debate on which mechanism can energetically maintain this turbulence. Among the possible candidates…
Massive disc galaxies in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations are too dark matter-dominated
A. Marasco, L. Posti, K. Oman +3
We investigate the disc-halo connection in massive (Mstar/Msun>5e10) disc galaxies from the cosmological hydrodynamical simulations EAGLE and IllustrisTNG, and compare it with that…
Robust HI kinematics of gas-rich ultra-diffuse galaxies: hints of a weak-feedback formation scenario
Pavel E. Mancera Piña, Filippo Fraternali, Kyle A. Oman +15
We study the gas kinematics of a sample of six isolated gas-rich low surface brightness galaxies, of the class called ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). These galaxies have recently be…
Pushing Point spread function reconstruction to the next level. Application to SPHERE/ZIMPOL
Olivier Beltramo-Martin, Antonino Marasco, Thierry Fusco +4
Point spread function (PSF) reconstruction (PSF-R) is a well established technique to determine reliably and accurately the PSF from Adaptive Optics (AO) control loop data. We have…
Successful application of PSF-R techniques to the case of the globular cluster NGC6121 (M4)
D. Massari, A. Marasco, O. Beltramo-Martin +4
Precise photometric and astrometric measurements on astronomical images require an accurate knowledge of the Point Spread Function (PSF). When the PSF cannot be modelled directly f…
The volumetric star formation law in the Milky Way
C. Bacchini, F. Fraternali, G. Pezzulli +3
Several open questions on galaxy formation and evolution have their roots in the lack of a universal star formation law, that could univocally link the gas properties, e.g. its den…
