- Description:
- We present results from a study of AGNs and their host galaxies found in low-redshift galaxy clusters. We fit model spectral energy distributions (SEDs) to the combined visible and mid-infrared (MIR) photometry of cluster members and use these model SEDs to determine stellar masses and star formation rates (SFRs). We identify two populations of AGNs, the first based on their X-ray luminosities (X-ray AGNs) and the second based on the presence of a significant AGN component in their model SEDs (IR AGNs). We find that the two AGN populations are nearly disjoint; only 8 out of 44 AGNs are identified with both techniques.

- Description:
- Within the framework of the Herschel M33 extended survey HerM33es and in combination with multi-wavelength data we study the spectral energy distribution (SED) of a set of HII regions in the Local Group galaxy M33 as a function of the morphology. We analyse the emission distribution in regions with different morphologies and present models to infer the H{alpha} emission measure observed for HII regions with well defined morphology. We present a catalogue of 119 HII regions morphologically classified: 9 filled, 47 mixed, 36 shell, and 27 clear shell HII regions. For each object we extracted the photometry at twelve available wavelength bands, covering a wide wavelength range from FUV-1516{AA} (GALEX) to IR-250um (Herschel), and we obtained the SED for each object. We also obtained emission line profiles in vertical and horizontal directions across the regions to study the location of the stellar, ionised gas, and dust components. We constructed a simple geometrical model for the clear shell regions, whose properties allowed us to infer the electron density of these regions.

- SEDs of the radio continuum from KINGFISHER

- Description:
- We study the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the radio continuum (RC) emission from the Key Insight in Nearby Galaxies Emitting in Radio (KINGFISHER) sample of nearby galaxies to understand the energetics and origin of this emission. Effelsberg multi-wavelength observations at 1.4, 4.8, 8.4, and 10.5GHz combined with archive data allow us, for the first time, to determine the mid-RC (1-10GHz, MRC) bolometric luminosities and further present calibration relations versus the monochromatic radio luminosities. The 1-10GHz radio SED is fitted using a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique leading to measurements for the nonthermal spectral index (S_{nu}_~{nu}^-{alpha}_nt_^) and the thermal fraction (f_th_) with mean values of {alpha}_nt_=0.97+/-0.16 (0.79+/-0.15 for the total spectral index) and f_th_=(10+/-9)% at 1.4GHz. The MRC luminosity changes over ~3 orders of magnitude in the sample, 4.3x10^2^L_{sun}_<MRC<3.9x10^5^L_{sun}_. The thermal emission is responsible for ~23% of the MRC on average. We also compare the extinction-corrected diagnostics of the star-formation rate (SFR) with the thermal and nonthermal radio tracers and derive the first star-formation calibration relations using the MRC radio luminosity. The nonthermal spectral index flattens with increasing SFR surface density, indicating the effect of the star-formation feedback on the cosmic-ray electron population in galaxies. Comparing the radio and IR SEDs, we find that the FIR-to-MRC ratio could decrease with SFR, due to the amplification of the magnetic fields in star-forming regions. This particularly implies a decrease in the ratio at high redshifts, where mostly luminous/star-forming galaxies are detected.

- Description:
- We investigate the kinematic and photometric properties of the Segue 3 Milky Way companion using Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopy and Magellan/IMACS g- and r-band imaging. Using maximum likelihood methods to analyze the photometry, we study the structure and stellar population of Segue 3. We find that the half-light radius of Segue 3 is 26"+/-5" (2.1+/-0.4pc, for a distance of 17kpc) and the absolute magnitude is a mere M_V_=0.0+/-0.8mag, making Segue 3 the least luminous old stellar system known.

- Selected ALESS submm galaxies radio properties
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/442/577
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a study of the radio properties of 870 {mu}m-selected submillimetre galaxies (SMGs), observed at high resolution with Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South. From our initial sample of 76 ALMA SMGs, we detect 52 SMGs at >3{sigma} significance in Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array 1400MHz imaging, of which 35 are also detected at >3{sigma} in new 610MHz Giant Metre-Wave Radio Telescope imaging. Within this sample of radio-detected SMGs, we measure a median radio spectral index {alpha}_{610}_^{1400}^=-0.79+/-0.06, (with inter-quartile range {alpha}=[-1.16,-0.56]) and investigate the far-infrared/radio correlation via the parameter q_IR_, the logarithmic ratio of the rest-frame 8-1000{mu}m flux and monochromatic radio flux. Our median q_IR_=2.56+/-0.05 (inter-quartile range q_IR_=[2.42,2.78]) is higher than that typically seen in single-dish 870{mu}m-selected sources (q_IR_~2.4), which may reflect the fact that our ALMA-based study is not biased to radio-bright counterparts, as previous samples were. Finally, we search for evidence that q_IR_ and {alpha} evolve with age in a codependent manner, as predicted by starburst models: the data populate the predicted region of parameter space, with the stellar mass tending to increase along tracks of q_IR_ versus {alpha} in the direction expected, providing the first observational evidence in support of these models.

- Selecting IRAC counterparts to SMGs

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present a new submm/mm galaxy counterpart identification technique which builds on the use of Spitzer Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) colours as discriminators between likely counterparts and the general IRAC galaxy population. Using 102 radio- and Submillimeter Array-confirmed counterparts to AzTEC sources across three fields [Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey-North, -South and Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS)], we develop a non-parametric IRAC colour-colour characteristic density distribution, which, when combined with positional uncertainty information via likelihood ratios, allows us to rank all potential IRAC counterparts around submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) and calculate the significance of each ranking via the reliability factor. We report all robust and tentative radio counterparts to SMGs, the first such list available for AzTEC/COSMOS, as well as the highest ranked IRAC counterparts for all AzTEC SMGs in these fields as determined by our technique. We demonstrate that the technique is free of radio bias and thus applicable regardless of radio detections. For observations made with a moderate beam size (~18"), this technique identifies ~85% of SMG counterparts. For much larger beam sizes (>~30"), we report identification rates of 33-49%. Using simulations, we demonstrate that this technique is an improvement over using positional information alone for observations with facilities such as AzTEC on the Large Millimeter Telescope and Submillimeter Common User Bolometer Array 2 on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope.

- Sersic + exponential disc morphologies in Coma
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Galaxies are not limited to simple spheroid or bulge + disc morphologies. We explore the diversity of internal galaxy structures in the Coma Cluster across a wide range of luminosities (-17>Mg>-22) and cluster-centric radii (0<r_cluster_<1.3r_200_) through analysis of deep Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope i-band imaging. We present 2D multicomponent decomposition via galfit, encompassing a wide range of candidate model morphologies with up to three photometric components. Particular focus is placed on early-type galaxies with outer discs (i.e. S0s), and deviations from simple ('unbroken') exponential discs. Rigorous filtering ensures that each model component provides a statistically significant improvement to the goodness-of-fit. The majority of Coma Cluster members in our sample (478 of 631) are reliably fitted by symmetric structural models. Of these, 134 (28 percent) are single Sersic objects, 143 (30 percent) are well-described by 2-component structures, while 201 (42 percent) require more complex models. Multicomponent Sersic galaxies resemble compact pseudo-bulges (n~2, R_e_~4kpc) surrounded by extended Gaussian-like outer structures (R_e_>10kpc). 11 percent of galaxies (N=52) feature a break in their outer profiles, indicating 'truncated' or 'antitruncated' discs. Beyond the break radius, truncated galaxies are structurally consistent with exponential discs, disfavouring physical truncation as their formation mechanism. Bulge luminosity in antitruncated galaxies correlates strongly with galaxy luminosity, indicating a bulge-enhancing origin for these systems. Both types of broken disc are found overwhelmingly (>70 percent) in 'barred' galaxies, despite a low measured bar fraction for Coma (20+/-2 percent). Thus, galaxy bars play an important role in formation of broken disc structures. No strong variation in galaxy structure is detected with projected cluster-centric radius.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present updated estimates of Galactic foreground emission using seven years of WMAP data. Using the power spectrum of differences between multi-frequency template-cleaned maps, we find no evidence for foreground contamination outside of the updated (KQ85y7) foreground mask. We place a 15uK upper bound on rms foreground contamination in the cleaned maps used for cosmological analysis. Further, the cleaning process requires only three power-law foregrounds outside of the mask. We find no evidence for polarized foregrounds beyond those from soft (steep-spectrum) synchrotron and thermal dust emission; in particular we find no indication in the polarization data of an extra "haze" of hard synchrotron emission from energetic electrons near the Galactic center. We provide an updated map of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using the internal linear combination method, updated foreground masks, and updates to point source catalogs using two different techniques. With additional years of data, we now detect 471 point sources using a five-band technique and 417 sources using a three-band CMB-free technique. In total there are 62 newly detected point sources, a 12% increase over the five-year release.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- An analysis of archival mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectra of Seyfert galaxies from the Spitzer Space Telescope observations is presented. We characterize the nature of the mid-IR active nuclear continuum by subtracting a template starburst spectrum from the Seyfert spectra. The long wavelength part of the spectrum contains a strong contribution from the starburst-heated cool dust; this is used to effectively separate starburst-dominated Seyferts from those dominated by the active nuclear continuum. Within the latter category, the strength of the active nuclear continuum drops rapidly beyond ~20um. On average, type 2 Seyferts have weaker short-wavelength active nuclear continua as compared to type 1 Seyferts. Type 2 Seyferts can be divided into two types, those with strong polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) bands and those without.
