The effect of environment on the ultraviolet color-magnitude relation of early-type galaxies
(2007-12-01)
We use GALEX near-UV (NUV ) photometry of a sample of early-type galaxies selected in the SDSS (Sloan Digital Sky Survey) to study the UV color-magnitude relation (CMR). NUV - r color is an excellent tracer of even small ...
The look-back time evolution of far-ultraviolet flux from the brightest cluster elliptical galaxies at z <0.2
(2007-12-01)
We present the GALEXUV photometry of the elliptical galaxies in Abell clusters at moderate redshifts (z <0.2) for the study of the look-back time evolution of the UV upturn phenomenon. The brightest elliptical galaxies (M ...
UV-optical colors as probes of early-type galaxy evolution
(2007-12-01)
We have studied ∼2100 early-type galaxies in the SDSS DR3 which have been detected by the GALEX Medium Imaging Survey (MIS), in the redshift range O <z <0.1.1. Combining GALEXUV photometry with corollary optical data from ...
