Composite Bulges: The Coexistence of Classical Bulges and Disky Pseudobulges in S0 and Spiral Galaxies

Peter Erwin, Roberto P. Saglia, Maximilian Fabricius +6

We study nine S0-Sb galaxies with (photometric) bulges consisting of two distinct components. The outer component is a flattened, kinematically cool, disklike structure: a "disky p…

The Cluster Velocity Dispersion of the Abell 2199 cD Halo of NGC 6166

Ralf Bender, John Kormendy, Mark E. Cornell +1

The Hobby-Eberly Telescope is used to measure the velocity dispersion profile of the nearest prototypical cD galaxy, NGC 6166 in cluster Abell 2199. We also present surface photome…

Using 3D Spectroscopy to Probe the Orbital Structure of Composite Bulges

Peter Erwin, Roberto Saglia, Jens Thomas +6

Detailed imaging and spectroscopic analysis of the centers of nearby S0 and spiral galaxies shows the existence of "composite bulges", where both classical bulges and disky pseudob…

CANDELS/GOODS-S, CDFS, ECDFS: Photometric Redshifts For Normal and for X-Ray-Detected Galaxies

Li-Ting Hsu, Mara Salvato, Kirpal Nandra +29

We present photometric redshifts and associated probability distributions for all detected sources in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS). The work makes use of the most…

The KMOS^3D Survey: design, first results, and the evolution of galaxy kinematics from 0.7<z<2.7

E. Wisnioski, N. M. Förster Schreiber, S. Wuyts +24

We present the KMOS^3D survey, a new integral field survey of over 600 galaxies at 0.7<z<2.7 using KMOS at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). The KMOS^3D survey utilizes synergies wit…

A Consistent Study of Metallicity Evolution at 0.8 < z < 2.6

Eva Wuyts, Jaron Kurk, Natascha M. Förster Schreiber +33

We present the correlations between stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR) and [NII]/Ha flux ratio as indicator of gas-phase metallicity for a sample of 222 galaxies at 0.8 < z <…

Evidence for Wide-Spread AGN Driven Outflows in the Most Massive z~1-2 Star Forming Galaxies

R. Genzel, N. M. Förster Schreiber, D. Rosario +35

In this paper we follow up on our previous detection of nuclear ionized outflows in the most massive (log(M*/Msun) >= 10.9) z~1-3 star-forming galaxies (Forster Schreiber et al.),…

Dwarf Galaxy Dark Matter Density Profiles Inferred from Stellar and Gas Kinematics

Joshua J. Adams, Joshua D. Simon, Maximilian H. Fabricius +9

We present new constraints on the density profiles of dark matter (DM) halos in seven nearby dwarf galaxies from measurements of their integrated stellar light and gas kinematics.…

Central rotations of Milky Way Globular Clusters

Maximilian H. Fabricius, Eva Noyola, Surangkhana Rukdee +6

Most Milky Way globular clusters (GCs) exhibit measurable flattening, even if on a very low level. Both cluster rotation and tidal fields are thought to cause this flattening. Neve…

Redshift evolution of the dynamical properties of massive galaxies from SDSS-III/BOSS

Alessandra Beifiori, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +26

We study the redshift evolution of the dynamical properties of ~180,000 massive galaxies from SDSS-III/BOSS combined with a local early-type galaxy sample from SDSS-II in the redsh…

The M31 Near-Infrared Period-Luminosity Relation and its non-linearity for Cep Variables with

Mihael Kodric, Arno Riffeser, Stella Seitz +7

We present the largest M31 near-infrared (F110W (close to J band), F160W (H band)) Cepheid sample so far. The sample consists of 371 Cepheids with photometry obtained from the HST…

Re-growth of stellar disks in mature galaxies: The two component nature of NGC 7217 revisited with VIRUS-W

Maximilian H. Fabricius, Lodovico Coccato, Ralf Bender +6

Previous studies have reported the existence of two counter-rotating stellar disks in the early-type spiral galaxy NGC7217. We have obtained high-resolution optical spectroscopic d…
