Context. Most of the contribution to dust emission in clusters of galaxies comes from late-type galaxies. However, several ejection processes of material from...
On the dust properties of the UV galaxies in the redshift range z 0.6-1.2
Far-infrared observations from the Herschel Space Observatory are used to estimate the infrared (IR) properties of ultraviolet-selected galaxies. We stack the...
On the early evolution of Local Group dwarf galaxy types: star formation and supernova feedback
According to star formation histories (SFHs), Local Group dwarf galaxies can be broadly classified in two types: those forming most of their stars before z = 2...
On the effect of discrete numbers of stars in chemical evolution models
We examine the impact of discrete numbers of stars in stellar populations on the results of Chemical Evolution Models. We explore the resulting dispersion in...
On the electron temperatures in high-metallicity HII regions
The electron temperatures of high-metallicity [12 + log(O/H) > 8.2] HII regions have been studied. The empirical flux-flux relations which express the nebular...
On the Environmental Dependence of the Cluster Galaxy Assembly Timescale
We present estimates of CN and Mg overabundances with respect to Fe for early-type galaxies in eight clusters over a range of richness and morphology. Spectra...
On the estimation of galaxy structural parameters: the Sérsic model
This paper addresses some questions which have arisen from the use of the Sérsic r1/n law in modelling the luminosity profiles of early-type galaxies. The first...
On the Eulerian Approach to the Evolution of Large-Scale Structures
Within the classical Eulerian theory of gravitational instability, and in an Omega = 1 universe, we introduce a method for obtaining iterative solutions for the...
On the Extended Structure of the Phoenix Dwarf Galaxy
We present the star formation history (SFH) and its variations with galactocentric distance for the Local Group dwarf galaxy of Phoenix. They have been derived...
