A Virgo Environmental Survey Tracing Ionised Gas Emission (VESTIGE).IX. The effects of ram pressure stripping down to the scale of individual HII regions in the dwarf galaxy IC 3476
A. Boselli, A. Lupi, B. Epinat +25
We study the IB(s)m galaxy IC 3476 observed in the context of VESTIGE, a blind narrow-band Halpha+[NII] imaging survey of the Virgo cluster. The deep narrow-band (NB) image reveals…
Non-isotropic feedback from accreting spinning black holes
Luca Sala, Elia Cenci, Pedro R. Capelo +2
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are massive black holes (BHs) caught in the act of accreting gas at the centre of their host galaxies. Part of the accreting mass is converted to energ…
Black hole spin evolution in warped accretion discs
Elia Cenci, Luca Sala, Alessandro Lupi +2
Massive black holes (BHs) inhabiting galactic nuclei can be described by two parameters only, i.e. mass and spin, that change through cosmic time in response to accretion and merge…
Constraints on the [CII] luminosity of a proto-globular cluster at z~6 obtained with ALMA
F. Calura, E. Vanzella, S. Carniani +11
We report on ALMA observations of D1, a system at z~6.15 with stellar mass M_* ~ 10^7 M_sun containing globular cluster (GC) precursors, strongly magnified by the galaxy cluster MA…
Dynamical evolution of massive perturbers in realistic multi-component galaxy models I: implementation and validation
Matteo Bonetti, Elisa Bortolas, Alessandro Lupi +1
Galaxies are self-gravitating structures composed by several components encompassing spherical, axial and triaxial symmetry. Although real systems feature heterogeneous components…
Shaping the structure of a GMC with radiation and winds
D. Decataldo, A. Lupi, A. Ferrara +2
We study the effect of stellar feedback (photodissociation/ionization, radiation pressure and winds) on the evolution of a Giant Molecular Cloud (GMC), by means of a 3D radiative t…
Missing [CII] emission from early galaxies
S. Carniani, A. Ferrara, R. Maiolino +9
ALMA observations have revealed that [CII] 158m line emission in high-z galaxies is ~2-3 more extended than the UV continuum emission. Here we explore whether surface br…
Predicting FIR lines from simulated galaxies
Alessandro Lupi, Andrea Pallottini, Andrea Ferrara +3
Far-infrared (FIR) emission lines are a powerful tool to investigate the properties of the interstellar medium, especially in high-redshift galaxies, where ALMA observations have p…
Dynamical friction-driven orbital circularisation in rotating discs: a semi-analytical description
Matteo Bonetti, Elisa Bortolas, Alessandro Lupi +2
We present and validate a novel semi-analytical approach to study the effect of dynamical friction on the orbits of massive perturbers in rotating stellar discs. We find that dynam…
The AGORA high-resolution galaxy simulations comparison project: Public data release
Santi Roca-Fàbrega, Ji-hoon Kim, Joel R. Primack +11
As part of the AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project (Kim et al. 2014, 2016) we have generated a suite of isolated Milky Way-mass galaxy simulations using 9 s…
Difficulties in Mid-Infrared selection of AGN in dwarf galaxies
Alessandro Lupi, Tullia Sbarrato, Stefano Carniani
While massive black holes (MBHs) are known to inhabit all massive galaxies, their ubiquitous presence in dwarf galaxies has not been confirmed yet, with only a limited number of so…
