The impact of a young radio galaxy : Clues from the cosmic ray electron population
(2014-04-01)
In the framework of hierarchical structure formation, active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback shapes the galaxy luminosity function. Low luminosity, galaxy-scale double radio sources are ideal targets to investigate the ...
On the shape of the mass-function of dense clumps in the Hi-GAL fields II : Using Bayesian inference to study the clump mass function
(2014-04)
Context. Stars form in dense, dusty clumps of molecular clouds, but little is known about their origin, their evolution, and their detailed physical properties. In particular, the relationship between the mass distribution ...
Mergers as triggers for nuclear activity : A near-IR study of the close environment of AGN in the VISTA-VIDEO survey
(2014-03-21)
There is an ongoing debate concerning the driver of nuclear activity in galaxies, with active galactic nuclei (AGN) either being triggered by major or minor galactic mergers or, alternatively, through secular processes ...
The Anglo-Australian planet search. XXIII. Two new jupiter analogs
(2014-03-10)
We report the discovery of two long-period giant planets from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search. HD 154857c is in a multiple-planet system, while HD 114613b appears to be solitary. HD 114613b has an orbital period P = ...
Stellar variability in the VVV survey : Overview and first results
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-03-03)
The Vista Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) ESO Public Survey is an ongoing time-series, near-infrared (IR) survey of the Galactic bulge and an adjacent portion of the inner disk, covering 562 square degrees of the sky, ...
Low-mass X-ray binaries and globular clusters streamers and ARCS in NGC 4278
(2014-03-01)
We report significant inhomogeneities in the projected two-dimensional spatial distributions of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) and globular clusters (GCs) of the intermediate mass elliptical galaxy NGC 4278. In the inner ...
The particle content of low-power radio galaxies in groups and clusters
(2014-03-01)
The synchrotron-radiating particles and magnetic fields in low-power radio galaxies (including most nearby cluster-centre sources), if at equipartition, can provide only a small fraction of the total internal energy density ...
The wide-field infrared survey explorer properties of complete samples of radio-loud active galactic nucleus
(2014-03-01)
We present an analysis of four complete samples of radio-loud active galactic nucleus (AGN; 3CRR, 2Jy, 6CE and 7CE) using near- and mid-IR data taken by theWide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). The combined sample ...
An ALMA survey of sub-millimetre galaxies in the extended chandra deep field south : The far-infrared properties of SMGs
(2014-02-21)
We exploit Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) 870 μm observations of sub-millimetre sources in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South to investigate the far-infrared properties of high-redshift sub-millimetre galaxies ...
The SCUBA-2 cosmology legacy survey : Ultraluminous star-forming galaxies in A z = 1.6 cluster
(2014-02-10)
We analyze new SCUBA-2 submillimeter and archival SPIRE far-infrared imaging of a z = 1.62 cluster, Cl 0218.3-0510, which lies in the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey/Ultra-Deep Survey field of the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy ...
