SDSS-IV MaNGA: Variations in the N/O -- O/H relation bias metallicity gradient measurements

Adam L. Schaefer, Christy Tremonti, Francesco Belfiore +4

In this paper we use strong line calibrations of N/O and O/H in MaNGA spaxel data to explore the systematics introduced by variations in N/O on various strong-line metallicity diag…

The KLEVER Survey: Spatially resolved metallicity maps and gradients in a sample of 1.2 < z < 2.5 lensed galaxies

Mirko Curti, Roberto Maiolino, Michele Cirasuolo +17

We present near-infrared observations of 42 gravitationally lensed galaxies obtained in the framework of the KMOS Lensed Emission Lines and VElocity Review (KLEVER) Survey, a progr…

The ALMaQUEST Survey: The molecular gas main sequence and the origin of the star forming main sequence

Lihwai Lin, Hsi-An Pan, Sara L. Ellison +9

The origin of the star forming main sequence ( i.e., the relation between star formation rate and stellar mass, globally or on kpc-scales; hereafter SFMS) remains a hotly debated t…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Evidence for enriched accretion onto satellite galaxies in dense environments

Adam L. Schaefer, Christy Tremonti, Zachary Pace +9

We investigate the environmental dependence of the local gas-phase metallicity in a sample of star-forming galaxies from the MaNGA survey. Satellite galaxies with stellar masses in…

Signatures of stellar accretion in MaNGA early-type galaxies

Grecco A. Oyarzun, Kevin Bundy, Kyle B. Westfall +10

The late assembly of massive galaxies is thought to be dominated by stellar accretion in their outskirts (beyond 2 effective radii Re) due to dry, minor galaxy mergers. We use obse…

From 'bathtub' galaxy evolution models to metallicity gradients

F. Belfiore, F. Vincenzo, R. Maiolino +1

We model gas phase metallicity radial profiles of galaxies in the local Universe by building on the `bathtub' chemical evolution formalism - where a galaxy's gas content is determi…

Metallicity calibrations for diffuse ionised gas and low ionisation emission regions

Nimisha Kumari, Roberto Maiolino, Francesco Belfiore +1

Using integral field spectroscopic data of 24 nearby spiral galaxies obtained with the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE), we derive empirical calibrations to determine the m…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Inside-out vs. outside-in quenching in different local environments

Lihwai Lin, Bau-Ching Hsieh, Hsi-An Pan +13

The large Integral Field Spectroscopy (IFS) surveys have allowed the classification of ionizing sources of emission lines on sub-kpc scales. In this work, we define two non-paramet…

The Data Analysis Pipeline for the SDSS-IV MaNGA IFU Galaxy Survey: Emission-Line Modeling

Francesco Belfiore, Kyle B. Westfall, Adam Schaefer +12

SDSS-IV MaNGA (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory) is the largest integral-field spectroscopy survey to date, aiming to observe a statistically representative samp…

The Data Analysis Pipeline for the SDSS-IV MaNGA IFU Galaxy Survey: Overview

Kyle B. Westfall, Michele Cappellari, Matthew A. Bershady +28

Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) is acquiring integral-field spectroscopy for the largest sample of galaxies to date. By 2020, the MaNGA Survey --- one o…
