Revisiting Stephan's Quintet with deep optical images

Pierre-Alain Duc, Jean-Charles Cuillandre, Florent Renaud

Stephan's Quintet, a compact group of galaxies, is often used as a laboratory to study a number of phenomena, including physical processes in the interstellar medium, star formatio…

Connecting traces of galaxy evolution: the missing core mass -- morphological fine structure relation

P. Bonfini, T. Bitsakis, A. Zezas +5

Deep exposure imaging of early-type galaxies (ETGs) are revealing the second-order complexity of these objects, which have been long considered uniform, dispersion-supported sphero…

Morphology and enhanced star formation in a Cartwheel-like ring galaxy

F. Renaud, E. Athanassoula, P. Amram +8

We use hydrodynamical simulations of a Cartwheel-like ring galaxy, modelled as a nearly head-on collision of a small companion with a larger disc galaxy, to probe the evolution of…

A Molecular gas rich GRB host galaxy at the peak of cosmic star formation

M. Arabsalmani, E. Le Floc'h, H. Dannerbauer +10

We report the detection of the CO(3-2) emission line from the host galaxy of Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) 080207 at = 2.086. This is the first detection of molecular gas in emission f…

Chemical Mapping of the Milky Way With The Canada-France Imaging Survey: A Non-parametric Metallicity-Distance Decomposition of the Galaxy

Rodrigo Ibata, Alan McConnachie, Jean-Charles Cuillandre +41

We present the chemical distribution of the Milky Way, based on 2,900 of -band photometry taken as part of the Canada-France Imaging Survey. When complete, this…

The Canada-France Imaging Survey: First results from the u-band component

Rodrigo Ibata, Alan McConnachie, Jean-Charles Cuillandre +41

The Canada-France Imaging Survey (CFIS) will map the northern high Galactic latitude sky in the -band ("CFIS-u", 10,000) and in the -band ("CFIS-r", 5,000$\,…
