Subhalo abundance matching through the lens of a hydrodynamical simulation

We use the IllustrisTNG100 hydrodynamical simulation to study the dependence of the galaxy two-point correlation function on a broad range of secondary subhalo and galactic properties. We construct galaxy mock catalogues adopting a standard subhalo abundan ...

The Pristine survey - XV. A CHIT ESPaDOnS view on the Milky Way halo and disc populations

Pascale Jablonka, Willem Suter, Carmela Lardo, Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

We present a one-dimensional, local thermodynamic equilibrium homogeneous analysis of 132 stars observed at high resolution with ESPaDOnS. This represents the largest sample observed at high resolution (R similar to 40 000) from the Pristine survey. This s ...

The last stages of star formation in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans

Romaine Theler

This thesis is anchored in the research of better understanding of the chemical evolution of galaxies. Many dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) are orbiting the Milky Way displaying various star formation histories. The formation of these dwarf galaxies and t ...

An extended Herschel drop-out source in the center of AS1063: a normal dusty galaxy at z=6.1 or SZ substructures?

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Johan Richard

In the course of our 870 mu m APEX/LABOCA follow-up of the Herschel Lensing Survey we have detected a source in AS1063 (RXC J2248.7-4431) that has no counterparts in any of the Herschel PACS/SPIRE bands, it is a Herschel "drop-out" with S-870/S-500 >= 0.5. ...

Membership, binarity, and rotation of red dwarfs in the nearby open cluster Coma Berenices (Melotte 111)

Jean-Claude Mermilliod

Context. Although several attempts have been made to identify solar-type members on the main sequence of the nearby open cluster Coma Berenices (Mel 111), the population of the lower main sequence is still poorly known. ...

Flares from a candidate Galactic magnetar suggest a missing link to dim isolated neutron stars

Andrea Kraus

Magnetars(1) are young neutron stars with very strong magnetic fields of the order of 10(14)-10(15) G. They are detected in our Galaxy either as soft gamma-ray repeaters or anomalous X-ray pulsars. Soft gamma-ray repeaters are a rare type of gamma-ray tran ...
