Mass loss from galaxies: feeding the IGM, recycling in the IGM

Pierre-Alain Duc, Jonathan Braine, Ute Lisenfeld +2

As a result of internal processes or environmental effects like ram-pressure stripping or collisions, galaxies lose a significant part of their stellar and gaseous content. Whereas…

ISOCAM Mid-InfraRed Detection of HR 10: A Distant Clone of Arp 220 at z=1.44

David Elbaz, Hector Flores, Pierre Chanial +5

We report the detection of the extremely red object (ERO), HR 10 (I-K= 6.5, z=1.44), at 4.9 and 6.1 microns (rest-frame) with ISOCAM, the mid-infrared (MIR) camera onboard the Infr…

The dark side of star formation in galaxy clusters: spectroscopic follow-up of clusters observed with ISOCAM

Dario Fadda, Pierre-Alain Duc

The evolution of galaxies in cluster environments can be studied using mid-IR observations which trace star forming regions hidden by dust. The optical follow-up of A1689 (z=0.2),…

Dwarf Galaxies and Star Clusters in Tidal Tails

Peter M. Weilbacher, Uta Fritze-von Alvensleben, Pierre-Alain Duc

We summarize the properties of tidal dwarf candidates in a sample of interacting galaxies and classify objects in tidal tails depending on their morphological appearance. New high-…

Spectrophotometric Investigation of a Sample of Tidal Dwarf Galaxies

Peter M. Weilbacher, Pierre-Alain Duc

We define a Tidal Dwarf Galaxy (TDG) as a self-gravitating entity of dwarf-galaxy mass built from tidal material expelled during interactions. We then summarize our findings on bro…
