An investigation of the star-forming main sequence considering the nebular continuum emission at low-z

Henrique Miranda, Ciro Pappalardo, Polychronis Papaderos +7

The code FADO is the first publicly available population spectral synthesis tool that treats the contribution from ionised gas to the observed emission self-consistently. We study…

The imprint of rapid star formation quenching on the spectral energy distributions of galaxies

L. Ciesla, A. Boselli, D. Elbaz +12

[Abridged] In high density environment, the gas content of galaxies is stripped, leading to a rapid quenching of their star formation activity. This dramatic environmental effect i…

NGC4370: a case study for testing our ability to infer dust distribution and mass in nearby galaxies

S. Viaene, G. De Geyter, M. Baes +14

A fraction of the early-type galaxy population hosts a prominent dust lane. Methods to quantify the dust content of these systems based on optical imaging data usually yield dust m…

The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey XIV: transition-type dwarf galaxies in the Virgo cluster

Ilse De Looze, Maarten Baes, Alessandro Boselli +19

We use dust scaling relations to investigate the hypothesis that Virgo cluster transition-type dwarfs are infalling star-forming field galaxies, which is argued based on their opti…
