Tidal Interactions and Mergers in Intermediate-redshift EDisCS Clusters

We study the fraction of tidal interactions and mergers (TIMs) with well-identified observability timescales (f(TIM)) in group, cluster, and accompanying field galaxies and its dependence on redshift (z), cluster velocity dispersion (sigma), and environmen ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Galactic evolution of sulphur and zinc

Carmela Lardo

Context. Due to their volatile nature, when sulphur and zinc are observed in external galaxies, their determined abundances represent the gas-phase abundances in the interstellar medium. This implies that they can be used as tracers of the chemical enrichm ...

Morphological Segregation in the Surroundings of Cosmic Voids

Amélie Tamone, Elena Ricciardelli

We explore the morphology of galaxies living in the proximity of cosmic voids, using a sample of voids identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7. At all stellar masses, void galaxies exhibit morphologies of a later type than galaxies in a c ...

The effect of the environment on the structure, morphology and star formation history of intermediate-redshift galaxies

Pascale Jablonka

With the aim of understanding the effect of the environment on the star formation history and morphological transformation of galaxies, we present a detailed analysis of the colour, morphology and internal structure of cluster and field galaxies at 0.4

Population gradient in the Sextans dSph: comprehensive mapping of a dwarf galaxy by Suprime-Cam

Pascale Jablonka

We present the deep and wide V and I-c photometry of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) taken by the Suprime-Cam imager on the Subaru Telescope, which extends out to the tidal radius. The colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) reaches two magnitudes below ...

Quantitative analysis of the crystalline bond lattice of bio-improved soils using micro-computed tomography

Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis

The study presents a comprehensive characterization of the fabric of bio-improved soils by introducing an image based quantitative analysis of the crystalline bond lattice, as a means of better understanding and interpreting the observed mechanical respons ...

Signal coverage approach to the detection probability of hypothetical extraterrestrial emitters in the Milky Way

Claudio Grimaldi

The lack of evidence for the existence of extraterrestrial life, even the simplest forms of animal life, makes it is difficult to decide whether the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) is more a high-risk, high-payoff endeavor than a futile att ...

4MOST: the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope project at preliminary design review

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Johan Richard

We present an overview of the 4MOST project at the Preliminary Design Review. 4MOST is a major new wide-field, high-multiplex spectroscopic survey facility under development for the VISTA telescope of ESO. 4MOST has a broad range of science goals ranging f ...

[C II] emission in z similar to 6 strongly lensed, star-forming galaxies

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Mathilde Jauzac, Johan Richard

The far-infrared fine-structure line [C II] at 1900.5 GHz is known to be one of the brightest cooling lines in local galaxies, and therefore it has been suggested to be an efficient tracer for star formation in very high redshift galaxies. However, recent ...

The PCA Lens-Finder: application to CFHTLS

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Frédéric Courbin, Rémy Elie Joseph, Danuta Janina Paraficz

We present the results of a new search for galaxy-scale strong lensing systems in CFHTLS Wide. Our lens-finding technique involves a preselection of potential lens galaxies, applying simple cuts in size and magnitude. We then perform a Principal Component ...
