Variability-selected Active Galactic Nuclei in the VST-SUDARE/VOICE Survey of the COSMOS Field
D. De Cicco, M. Paolillo, G. Covone +16
Optical variability has proven to be an effective way of detecting AGNs in imaging surveys, lasting from weeks to years. In the present work we test its use as a tool to identify A…
VEGAS-SSS. A VST survey of elliptical galaxies in the southern hemisphere: analysis of small stellar systems. Testing the methodology on the globular cluster system in NGC3115
Michele Cantiello, Massimo Capaccioli, Nicola Napolitano +11
We present a study of globular clusters (GCs) and other small stellar systems (SSSs) in the field of NGC3115, observed as part of the VEGAS imaging survey, carried out with the VST…
A Forming Wide Polar Ring Galaxy at z~0.05 in the VST Deep Field of the Fornax Cluster
E. Iodice, M. Capaccioli, M. Spavone +5
We present the first deep photometry of a good candidate for a forming polar ring galaxy at redshift z~0.05. This object, named FCSS J033710.0-354727, is a background galaxy in the…
Shapley Supercluster Survey (ShaSS): Galaxy Evolution from Filaments to Cluster Cores
P. Merluzzi, G. Busarello, C. P. Haines +11
We present an overview of a multi-wavelength survey of the Shapley supercluster (SSC; z~0.05) covering a contiguous area of 260 h^-2_70 Mpc^2 including the supercluster core. The p…
STREGA: STRucture and Evolution of the GAlaxy. I. Survey Overview and First Results
M. Marconi, I. Musella, M. Di Criscienzo +28
STREGA (STRucture and Evolution of the GAlaxy) is a Guaranteed Time survey being performed at the VST (the ESO VLT Survey Telescope) to map about 150 square degrees in the Galactic…
STEP: The VST survey of the SMC and the Magellanic Bridge. I. Overview and first results
V. Ripepi, M. Cignoni, M. Tosi +23
STEP (the SMC in Time: Evolution of a Prototype interacting late-type dwarf galaxy) is a Guaranteed Time Observation survey being performed at the VST (the ESO VLT Survey Telescope…
