INSPIRE: INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics -- VII. The local environment of ultra-compact massive galaxies
Diana Scognamiglio, Chiara Spiniello, Mario Radovich +15
Relic galaxies, the oldest ultra-compact massive galaxies (UCMGs), contain almost exclusively "pristine" stars formed during an intense star formation (SF) burst at high redshift.…
INSPIRE: INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics II. First Data Release (DR1)
C. Spiniello, C. Tortora, G. D'Ago +12
The INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics is an on-going project targeting 52 ultra-compact massive galaxies at 0.1<z<0.5 with the X-Shooter@VLT spectrograph (XSH). These obje…
INSPIRE: INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics -- I. Survey presentation and pilot program
C. Spiniello, C. Tortora, G. D'Ago +12
Massive ETGs are thought to form through a two-phase process. At early times, an intense and fast starburst forms blue and disk-dominated galaxies. After quenching, the remaining s…
The MAGPI Survey -- science goals, design, observing strategy, early results and theoretical framework
C. Foster, J. T. Mendel, C. D. P. Lagos +40
We present an overview of the Middle Ages Galaxy Properties with Integral Field Spectroscopy (MAGPI) survey, a Large Program on ESO/VLT. MAGPI is designed to study the physical dri…
A few StePS forward in unveiling the complexity of galaxy evolution: light-weighted stellar ages of intermediate redshift galaxies with WEAVE
L. Costantin, A. Iovino, S. Zibetti +29
The upcoming new generation of optical spectrographs on four-meter-class telescopes will provide invaluable information for reconstructing the history of star formation in individu…
The SLUGGS Survey: A comparison of total-mass profiles of early-type galaxies from observations and cosmological simulations, to 4 effective radii
Sabine Bellstedt, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +11
We apply the Jeans Anisotropic MGE (JAM) dynamical modelling method to SAGES Legacy Unifying Globulars and GalaxieS (SLUGGS) survey data of early-type galaxies in the stellar mass…
