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…

Counter-rotating disks in galaxies: dissecting kinematics and stellar populations with 3D spectroscopy

Lodovico Coccato, Lorenzo Morelli, Alessandro Pizzella +3

We present a spectral decomposition technique that separates the contribution of different kinematic components in galaxies from the observed spectrum. This allows to study the kin…

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…

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…

The HETDEX Pilot Survey V: The Physical Origin of Lyman-alpha Emitters Probed by Near-infrared Spectroscopy

Mimi Song, Steven L. Finkelstein, Karl Gebhardt +19

We present the results from a VLT/SINFONI and Keck/NIRSPEC near-infrared spectroscopic survey of 16 Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) at = 2.1 - 2.5 in the COSMOS and GOODS-N fields…

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…

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…
