MUSE observations of the lensing cluster SMACSJ2031.8-4036: new constraints on the mass distribution in the cluster core
J. Richard, V. Patricio, J. Martinez +10
We present new observations of the lensing cluster SMACSJ2031.8-4036 obtained with the MUSE integral field spectrograph as part of its commissioning on the Very Large Telescope. By…
The Emission-Line Spectra of Major Mergers: Evidence for Shocked Outflows
Kurt T. Soto, C. L. Martin, M. K. M. Prescott +1
Using a spectral decomposition technique (Soto & Martin 2012, hereafter Paper I), we investigate the physical origin of the high-velocity emission line gas in a sample of 39 gas-ri…
Gas Excitation in ULIRGS: Maps of Diagnostic Emission-Line Ratios in Space and Velocity
Kurt T. Soto, Crystal L. Martin
Emission-line spectra extracted at multiple locations across 39 ultraluminous infrared galaxies have been compiled into a spectrophotometric atlas. Line profiles of H alpha, [N II]…
Stellar Population Gradients in ULIRGs: Implications for Gas Inflow Timescales
Kurt T. Soto, Crystal L. Martin
Using longslit, optical spectra of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs), we measure the evolution in the star-formation intensity during galactic mergers. In individual galaxie…
