IMAGES: a unique view of the galaxy mass assembly since z=1

M. Puech, F. Hammer, H. Flores +2

The Large Program IMAGES is near 2/3 of its completion. It provides us with kinematics (GIRAFFE deployable IFUs), gas chemistry (FORS2), detailed morphologies (HST/ACS) and IR phot…

The MW is an exceptionnally quiet galaxy: implications for spiral formation

M. Puech, F. Hammer, L. Chemin +2

We compare both the Milky Way and M31 to local external disk galaxies within the same mass range, using their relative locations in the planes formed by Vflat vs. MK (the Tully-Fis…

The origin of star formation since z=1

F. Hammer, M. Puech, Y. B. Yang +1

The use of multiple integral field units with FLAMES/GIRAFFE at VLT has revolutionized investigations of distant galaxy kinematics. This facility may recover the velocity fields of…

The FALCON concept: multi-object adaptive optics and atmospheric tomography for integral field spectroscopy. Principles and performances on an 8 meter telescope

Francois Assemat, Eric Gendron, Francois Hammer

Integral field spectrographs are major instruments to study the mechanisms involved in the formation and the evolution of early galaxies. When combined with multi-object spectrosco…

The Luminosity and Metallicity Relation of distant luminous infrared galaxies

Y. C. Liang, F. Hammer, H. Flores +4

Oxygen abundances [12+log(O/H)] in the interstellar medium of a large sample of distant (z>0.4) luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) were estimated from their extinction corrected em…

Galaxy and star formation up to z ~ 1

F. Hammer, H. Flores

Star formation history shows a gradual decline since the last 8-9 Gyr (z=1). The bulk of present-day stellar mass and metal content was formed at redshifts lower than 2-3, which is…
