  • Spectroscopy of the archetype colliding-wind binary WR 140 during the 2009 January periastron passage

    We present the results from the spectroscopic monitoring of WR 140 (WC7pd + O5.5fc) during its latest periastron passage in 2009 January. The observational campaign consisted of a constructive collaboration between amateur and professional astronomers. It took place at six locations, including Teide Observatory, Observatoire de Haute Provence

  • SPICA and the Chemical Evolution of Galaxies: The Rise of Metals and Dust

    The physical processes driving the chemical evolution of galaxies in the last 11Gyr cannot be understood without directly probing the dust-obscured phase of star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei. This phase, hidden to optical tracers, represents the bulk of the star formation and black hole accretion activity in galaxies at 1 < z < 3

  • SPIDER - I. Sample and galaxy parameters in the grizYJHK wavebands

    This is the first paper of a series presenting the Spheroids Panchromatic Investigation in Different Environmental Regions (SPIDER). The sample of spheroids consists of 5080 bright (Mr < -20) early-type galaxies (ETGs), in the redshift range of 0.05 to 0.095, with optical (griz) photometry and spectroscopy from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data

  • SPIDER - II. The Fundamental Plane of early-type galaxies in grizYJHK

    We present a complete analysis of the Fundamental Plane (FP) of early-type galaxies (ETGs) in the nearby Universe (z < 0.1). The sample, as defined in Paper I, comprises 39993 ETGs located in environments covering the entire domain in local density (from field to cluster). We derive the FP in the grizYJHK wavebands with a detailed discussion on

  • SPIDER - III. Environmental dependence of the Fundamental Plane of early-type galaxies

    We analyse the Fundamental Plane (FP) relation of 39993 early-type galaxies (ETGs) in the optical (griz) and 5080 ETGs in the near-infrared (NIR; YJHK) wavebands, forming an optical+NIR sample of 4589 galaxies. We focus on the analysis of the FP as a function of the environment where galaxies reside. We characterize the environment using the

  • Spider. IV. Optical and Near-infrared Color Gradients in Early-type Galaxies: New Insight into Correlations with Galaxy Properties

    We present an analysis of stellar population gradients in 4546 early-type galaxies (ETGs) with photometry in grizYHJK along with optical spectroscopy. ETGs were selected as bulge-dominated systems, displaying passive spectra within the SDSS fibers. A new approach is described which utilizes color information to constrain age and metallicity
