Globular clusters systems and their host dark matter halos
In the Λ-CDM galaxy formation paradigm, the star formation history of a galaxy is coupled to the total mass of its dark matter halo through processes like...
GOYA Survey: U and B Number Counts in the Groth-Westphal Strip
We present U and B galaxy number counts from a field that comprises a 0.29 square degrees area of sky, and which covers the Groth-Westphal Strip (Groth et al...
Gradients of excitation in the nuclei of starburst galaxies
The use of long-slit spectroscopy at high spectral and spatial resolution has made it possible to measure gradients of gaseous excitation and also velocity...
Gravity Binding and Pressure Bounding of Hii regions and Molecular Clouds in Interacting Galaxies
We have observed 3 pairs of interacting galaxies (the Antennae, Arp 236, and NGC 1614) using the Fabry-Perot interferometer GHαFaS (Galaxy Hα Fabry-Perot system...
High-resolution maps of the spiral galaxies NGC 3992 and NGC 4321, obtained with the Taurus camera at the 4.2-m William Herschel Telescope are analyzed. The...
H II Regions Within a Compact High Velocity Cloud. A Nearly Starless Dwarf Galaxy?
Within the SECCO survey we identified a candidate stellar counterpart to the Ultra Compact High Velocity Cloud (UCHVC) HVC274.68+74.70-123 that was suggested by...
H II regions, morphology and star formation in disc galaxies.
The distribution and morphology of H II regions in the discs of spirals has been examined in great detail for a set of objects imaged in Hα. In those with...
HerMES HFLS3: A dust-obscured massive maximum-starburst galaxy at a redshift of 6.34
How do the first galaxies form and evolve? Optical and near-infrared deep surveys are now finding galaxies at very high redshifts. However, they are typically...
HerMES: Far infrared properties of known AGN in the HerMES fields
Nuclear and starburst activity are known to often occur concomitantly. Herschel-SPIRE provides sampling of the far-infrared (FIR) spectral energy distributions...
