The GOGREEN survey: dependence of galaxy properties on halo mass a z > 1 and implications for environmental quenching

We use photometric redshifts and statistical background subtraction to measure stellar mass functions in galaxy group-mass (4.5-8 x 10(13) M-circle dot) haloes at 1 < z < 1.5. Groups are selected from COSMOS and SXDF, based on X-ray imaging and sparse spec ...

The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. III. Cosmological Zoom-in Simulation of a Milky Way-mass Halo

Yves Revaz, Loïc Hausammann, Alessandro Lupi

We present a suite of high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations to z = 4 of a 10(12) M (circle dot) halo at z = 0, obtained using seven contemporary astrophysical simulation codes (Art-I, Enzo, Ramses, Changa, Gadget-3, Gear, and Gizmo) widely used ...

Does concentration drive the scatter in the stellar-to-halo mass relation of galaxy clusters?

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan, Jun Zhang, Wei Cui

Concentration is one of the key dark matter halo properties that could drive the scatter in the stellar-to-halo mass relation of massive clusters. We derive robust photometric stellar masses for a sample of brightest central galaxies (BCGs) in SDSS REDMAPP ...

The GOGREEN survey: transition galaxies and the evolution of environmental quenching

Pascale Jablonka, Hung-Hsu Chan

We measure the rate of environmentally driven star formation quenching in galaxies at z similar to 1, using eleven massive () galaxy clusters spanning a redshift range 1.0 < z < 1.4 from the GOGREEN sample. We identify three different types of transition g ...

Cold gas in the cosmic web around galaxy clusters

Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

Galaxies live in very different types of environment. Those different environments are relics from the evolution of the Universe since the Big Bang. This network of structures observed via large scale surveys is called Cosmic Web. Within this web, galaxies ...

Quantifying the information impact of future searches for exoplanetary biosignatures

Claudio Grimaldi

One of the major goals for astronomy in the next decades is the remote search for biosignatures (i.e., the spectroscopic evidence of biological activity) in exoplanets. Here we adopt a Bayesian statistical framework to discuss the implications of such futu ...

The Hidden Past of M92: Detection and Characterization of a Newly Formed 17 degrees Long Stellar Stream Using the Canada-France Imaging Survey

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We present an analysis of the structure, kinematics, and orbit of a newly found stellar stream emanating from the globular cluster M92 (NGC 6341). This stream was discovered in an improved matched-filter map of the outer Galaxy, based on a "color-color-mag ...

Searching for multiple populations in the integrated light of the young and extremely massive clusters in the merger remnant NGC 7252

Carmela Lardo

Recent work has shown that the properties of multiple populations (MPs) within massive stellar clusters (i.e. in the extent of their abundance variations as well as the fraction of stars that show the anomalous chemistry) depend on the mass as well as the ...

The distribution of dark matter and gas spanning 6 Mpc around the post-merger galaxy cluster MS0451-03

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac, Baptiste Philippe Klein, Richard Massey

Using the largestmosaic of Hubble Space Telescope images around a galaxy cluster, we map the distribution of darkmatter throughout an similar to 6 x 6 Mpc(2) area centred on the clusterMS 0451-03 (z = 0.54, M-200 = 1.65 x 10(15) M-circle dot). Our joint st ...

Lithium in red giant stars: Constraining non-standard mixing with large surveys in the Gaia era

Pierre North

Context. Li is extensively known to be a good tracer of non-standard mixing processes occurring in stellar interiors. Aims. We present the results of a new large Li survey in red giant stars and combine it with surveys from the literature to probe the impa ...
