We perform a comprehensive estimate of the frequency of galaxy mergers and their impact on star formation over z similar to 0.24-0.80 (lookback time T-b similar to 3-7 Gyr) using similar to 3600 (M >= 1 x 10(9) M-circle dot) galaxies with GEMS Hubble Space ...
We present a study of large-scale bars in field and cluster environments out to redshifts of similar to 0.8 using a final sample of 945 moderately inclined disk galaxies drawn from the EDisCS project. We characterize bars and their host galaxies and look f ...
We present a comprehensive analysis of the stellar population properties and morphologies of red-sequence galaxies in 24 clusters and groups from z similar to 0.75 to z similar to 0.45. The dataset, consisting of 215 spectra drawn from the ESO Distant Clus ...
Post-starburst (E+A or k+a) spectra, characterized by their exceptionally strong Balmer lines in absorption and the lack of emission lines, belong to galaxies in which the star formation (SF) activity ended abruptly sometime during the past Gyr. We perform ...
We present a study of the population of bright early-type dwarf galaxies in the multiple-cluster system Abell 901/902. We use data from the STAGES survey and COMBO-17 to investigate the relation between the color and structural properties of the dwarfs and ...
We revisit the composition of neutral hydrogen, i.e. atomic (HI) and molecular (H2), in the local Universe, with focus on the H2-to-HI mass ratio R in various galaxies and the H2-mass function (MF). First, we derive the H2-MF from the CO-luminosity functio ...
Motion processing is usually deemed to rely on retinotopic coordinates. Using a Ternus-Pikler display, we present an instance in which coherent motion of a dot can only be perceived when its position is integrated non-retinotopically. The stimulus consists ...
We present the results of the Gravitational LEnsing Accuracy Testing 2008 (GREAT08) Challenge, a blind analysis challenge to infer weak gravitational lensing shear distortions from images. The primary goal was to stimulate new ideas by presenting the probl ...
