ELMER is a multi-purpose instrument for the GTC designed for both, imaging and spectroscopy in the visible range. The detection subsystem consists of a single...
The Emission and Distribution of Dust of the Torus of NGC 1068
We present observations of NGC 1068 covering the 19.7–53.0 μm wavelength range using FORCAST and HAWC+ on board SOFIA. Using these observations, high-angular...
The emission-line knot in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5347
We report on narrow-band Hα imaging and long-slit spectroscopy at intermediate resolution from [NeV] lambda3425A to [SIII] lambda9532A at PA=25.˚5 through the...
We use a suite of cosmological, hydrodynamical simulations to investigate the chemical enrichment history of the Universe. Specifically, we trace the origin of...
The entropy of galaxy spectra: how much information is encoded?
The inverse problem of extracting the stellar population content of galaxy spectra is analysed here from a basic standpoint based on information theory. By...
The environments of luminous radio galaxies and type-2 quasars
We present the results of a comparison between the environments of (1) a complete sample of 46 southern 2-Jy radio galaxies at intermediate redshifts (0.05 z ...
The episodic star formation history of the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy
We present deep photometry of the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy in the B and V filters from CTIO/MOSAIC out to and beyond the tidal radius of rell ≈ 0.48...
The EROs at z < 1.5 in the Groth-Westphal field of the GOYA survey
The study of the Extremly Red Objects (EROs), is the importance for setting constraints on the first epoch of massive galaxy formation, for exploring the...
The European Large Area ISO Survey - I. Goals, definition and observations
We describe the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). ELAIS was the largest single Open Time project conducted by ISO, mapping an area of 12deg2 at 15μm with...
