Abundance Ratios in Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2016
AbstractThe aim of this study is to determine abundance ratios and star formation histories (SFH) of dwarf ellipticals in the nearby Virgo cluster. We perform a stellar population analysis of 39 dEs and study them using index-index and scaling relations. We find an unusual behaviour where [Na/Fe] is under-abundant w.r.t.

Patterns of wild meat and other protein consumption in the periphery of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In Central Africa, human activities are severely impacting terrestrial and aquatic wildlife, threatening the food security of millions of people. Accordingly, sustainable use of wildlife is crucial for the nutrition and livelihoods of many rural communities in the region.

Dynamics of Elliptical Galaxies with Planetary Nebulae in Modified Newtonian Dynamics

, 2016
The dynamics of an elliptical galaxy within a couple of effective radii can be probed effectively by stars. However, at larger distances planetary nebulae (PNe) replace stars as the tracer of the dynamics.

Angular Momentum across the Hubble sequence from the CALIFA survey [PDF]

, 2014
We investigate the stellar angular momentum of galaxies across the Hubble sequence from the CALIFA survey. The distribution of CALIFA elliptical and lenticular galaxies in the $\lambda_{\rm Re}-\epsilon_{\rm e}$ diagram is consistent with that shown by ...

Abundance ratios in dwarf elliptical galaxies [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017
We determine abundance ratios of 37 dwarf ellipticals (dEs) in the nearby Virgo cluster. This sample is representative of the early-type population of galaxies in the absolute magnitude range -19.0 < Mr < -16.0. We analyze their absorption line-strength indices by means of index-index diagrams and scaling relations and use the stellar population ...

Investigating the Impact of Supernova Feedback on Satellites in Elliptical Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the influence of supernova (SN) feedback on the satellites of elliptical host galaxies using hydrodynamic simulations. Utilizing a modified version of the GADGET-3 code, we perform cosmological zoom-in simulations of 11 elliptical galaxies

Advanced Life Peaked Billions of Years Ago According to Black Holes

Galaxies, 2023
The link between black holes and star formation allows for us to draw a connection between black holes and the places and times when extraterrestrial intelligences (ETIs) had a greater chance of emerging.

The luminosity function of field galaxies

, 2011
Schmidt's method for construction of luminosity function of galaxies is generalized by taking into account the dependence of density of galaxies from the distance in the near Universe.
