Systematic errors on optical-SED stellar mass estimates for galaxies across cosmic time and their impact on cosmology

A. Paulino-Afonso, S. González-Gaitán, L. Galbany +7

Studying galaxies at different cosmic epochs entails several observational effects that need to be taken into account to compare populations across a large time span in a consisten…

Time-average properties of major mergers: mergers significantly scatter high-z scaling relations

Mathieu Puech, Hector Flores, Myriam Rodrigues +2

Interpreting the scaling relations measured by recent large kinematic surveys of galaxies has remained hampered by large observational scatter. We show that the observed IS…

Most pseudo-bulges can be formed at later stages of major mergers

T Sauvaget, F Hammer, M Puech +3

Most giant spiral galaxies have pseudo or disk-like bulges that are considered to be the result of purely secular processes. This may challenge the hierarchical scenario predicting…

Studying distant galaxies: A Handbook of Methods and Analyses

F. Hammer, M. Puech, H. Flores +1

Distant galaxies encapsulate the various stages of galaxy evolution and formation from over 95% of the development of the universe. As early as twenty-five years ago, little was kn…

Morpho-kinematics of z~1 galaxies probe the hierarchical scenario

M. Rodrigues, F. Hammer, H. Flores +2

We have studied a representative sample of intermediate-mass galaxies at z~1, observed by the kinematic survey KMOS3D. We have re-estimated the kinematical parameters from the publ…

The E-ELT Multi-Object Spectrograph: latest news from MOSAIC

F. Hammer, S. Morris, L. Kaper +9

There are 8000 galaxies, including 1600 at z larger than 1.6, which could be simultaneously observed in an E-ELT field of view of 40 sq. arcmin. A considerable fraction of astrophy…

Science Requirements and Trade-offs for the MOSAIC Instrument for the European ELT

C. J. Evans, M. Puech, M. Rodrigues +9

Building on the comprehensive White Paper on the scientific case for multi-object spectroscopy on the European ELT, we present the top-level instrument requirements that are being…

The main sequence of star-forming galaxies at z~0.6: reinstating major mergers

M. Puech, F. Hammer, M. Rodrigues +3

The relation between the star formation rate and the stellar mass of star-forming galaxies has been used to argue that major mergers cannot be the main driver of star formation. He…

A decrease of the gas exchanges between galaxies and the IGM, from 12 to 6 billion years ago

M. Rodrigues, M. Puech, F. Hammer +2

Using a representative sample of 65 intermediate mass galaxies at z \sim 0.6, we have inves- tigated the interplay between the main ingredients of chemical evolution: metal abundan…

The Wolf-Rayet features and mass-metallicity relation of long-duration gamma-ray burst host galaxies

X. H. Han, F. Hammer, Y. C. Liang +4

Aims. We have gathered optical spectra of 8 long-duration GRB host galaxies selected from the archival data of VLT/FORS2. We investigated whether or not Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars can b…
