This paper is aimed at giving an overview of the global properties of the rich cluster of galaxies ABCG 209. This is achieved by complementing the already available data with new m…
The Different Physical Mechanisms that Drive the Star-Formation Histories of Giant and Dwarf Galaxies
C. P. Haines, A. Gargiulo, F. La Barbera +3
We present an analysis of star-formation and nuclear activity in galaxies as a function of both luminosity and environment in the SDSS DR4 dataset. Using a sample of 27753 galaxies…
Weak Lensing Mass Reconstruction of the Galaxy Cluster Abell 209
S. Paulin-Henriksson, V. Antonuccio-Delogu, C. P. Haines +3
Weak lensing applied to deep optical images of clusters of galaxies provides a powerful tool to reconstruct the distribution of the gravitating mass associated to these structures.…
The Environmental Dependencies of Star-formation and the Origin of the Bimodality in Galaxy Properties
C. P. Haines, A. Gargiulo, A. Mercurio +4
We examine the origins of the bimodality observed in the global properties of galaxies by comparing the environmental dependencies of star-formation for giant and dwarf galaxy popu…
The Different Environmental Dependencies of Star-formation for Giant and Dwarf Galaxies
C. P. Haines, F. La Barbera, A. Mercurio +2
We examine the origins of the bimodality observed in the global properties of galaxies around a stellar mass of 3x10^10 M_sun by comparing the environmental dependencies of star-fo…
Shapley Optical Survey II: The effect of environment on the colour-magnitude relation and galaxy colours
C. P. Haines, P. Merluzzi, A. Mercurio +5
We present an analysis of the effects of environment on the photometric properties of galaxies in the core of the Shapley Supercluster at z=0.05, one of the most massive structures…
Shapley Optical Survey. I: Luminosity Functions in the Supercluster Environment
A. Mercurio, P. Merluzzi, C. P. Haines +6
We present the Shapley Optical Survey, a photometric study covering a 2 deg^2 region of the Shapley Supercluster core at z ~ 0.05 in two bands (B and R). The galaxy sample is compl…
New insights into the structure of early-type galaxies: the Photometric Plane at z~0.3
F. La Barbera, G. Covone, G. Busarello +4
We study the Photometric Plane (PHP), namely the relation between the effective radius re, the mean surface brightness within that radius <mi>e, and the Sersic index n, in optical…
Dynamical Evolution and Galaxy Populations in the Cluster ABCG 209 at z=0.2
A. Mercurio
The thesis work is focused on the analysis of the galaxy clusters ABCG 209, at z~0.2, which is characterized by a strong dynamical evolution. The data sample used is based mainly o…
The Capodimonte Deep Field I - Presentation of the survey and first follow-up studies
J. M. Alcalá, M. Pannella, E. Puddu +16
We present the Capodimonte Deep Field (OACDF), a deep field covering an area of 0.5 square degrees in the B, V, R optical bands plus six medium-band filters in the wavelength range…
Transformations of galaxies in the environments of the cluster ABCG 209 at z~0.2
A. Mercurio, G. Busarello, P. Merluzzi +3
We analyse the properties of galaxy populations in the rich Abell cluster ABCG 209 at redshift z~0.21, on the basis of spectral classification of 102 member galaxies. We take advan…
