ESO-VLT BlueMUSE instrument - Conceptual Design for Phase A
Florence Laurent, Johan Richard, Rémi Giroud +23
BlueMUSE is a blue-optimised, medium spectral resolution, panoramic integral field spectrograph under development for the ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). The project is now enter…
MUSE-DARK-II: 3D morpho-kinematic modelling of lensed galaxies. Tully-Fisher relation of star-forming galaxies
Alexandre Jeanneau, Johan Richard, Nicolas F. Bouché +5
In a series of papers on lensed kinematics, we seek to combine the sensitivity of 3D forward modelling to low signal-to-noise ratio outskirts with the enhanced spatial resolution o…
Multi-spin stellar velocity maps of the most massive galaxies
Davor Krajnovic, Eric Emsellem, Roland Bacon +3
(Abridged) We present stellar kinematics of the MUSE Most Massive Galaxies (M3G) Survey, comprising 25 galaxies brighter than -25.7 mag in the Ks-band and stellar mass above ~6x10^…
Rediscovering the Milky Way with orbit superposition approach and APOGEE data III. Panoramic view of the bulge
Sergey Khoperskov, Paola Di Matteo, Matthias Steinmetz +9
The innermost parts of the Milky Way (MW) are very difficult to observe due to the high extinction along the line of sight, especially close to the disc mid-plane. However, this re…
Rediscovering the Milky Way with orbit superposition approach and APOGEE data II. Chrono-chemo-kinematics of the disc
Sergey Khoperskov, Matthias Steinmetz, Misha Haywood +9
The stellar disc is the dominant luminous component of the Milky Way (MW). Although our understanding of its structure is rapidly expanding due to advances in large-scale stellar s…
Rediscovering the Milky Way with orbit superposition approach and APOGEE data I. Method validation
Sergey Khoperskov, Glenn van de Ven, Matthias Steinmetz +9
We introduce a novel orbit superposition method designed to reconstruct the stellar density structure, kinematics, and chemical abundance distribution of the entire Milky Way by le…
