Looking into dark matter with asteroseismology

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Dark matter remains as an elusive component of modern Cosmology. According to previous research, stellar physics observables can be affected by the presence of hypothetical dark matter particles, which can be produced or accreted into the stars.

Stellar Populations in Bulges

open access: yes, 2005
We present line strengths in the bulges and inner disks of 38 galaxies in the local universe, including several galaxies whose bulges were previously identified as being disk-like in their colors or kinematics, to see if their spectral properties reveal ...

Being WISE, I : validating stellar population models and M*/L ratios at 3.4 and 4.6 µm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Using data from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer mission, we have measured near infra-red (NIR) photometry of a diverse sample of dust-free stellar systems (globular clusters, dwarf and giant early-type galaxies) which have metallicities that span

DSPS: Differentiable stellar population synthesis

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT Models of stellar population synthesis (SPS) are the fundamental tool that relates the physical properties of a galaxy to its spectral energy distribution (SED). In this paper, we present DSPS: a python package for SPS. All of the functionality in DSPS is implemented natively in the JAX library for automatic differentiation, and

Astroserver – Research Services in the Stellar Webshop

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
A quick look at research and development in astronomy shows that we live in exciting times. Exoplanetary systems, supernovae, and merging binary black holes were far out of reach for observers two decades ago and now such phenomena are recorded routinely.

SDSS-IV MaNGA: The Effect of Stellar Mass and Halo Mass on the Assembly Histories of Satellite Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We combine an unprecedented MaNGA sample of over 3000 passive galaxies in the stellar mass range 10 ^9 –10 ^12 M _⊙ with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey group catalog by Tinker to quantify how central and satellite formation, quantified by radial profiles ...

New Generation Stellar Spectral Libraries in the Optical and Near-infrared. I. The Recalibrated UVES-POP Library for Stellar Population Synthesis

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We present reprocessed flux-calibrated spectra of 406 stars from the UVES-POP stellar library in the wavelength range 320–1025 nm, which can be used for stellar population synthesis.

Spatially Resolved Spectroscopic Star Formation Histories of Nearby Disks: Hints of Stellar Migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We use the Mitchell Spectrograph (formerly VIRUS-P) to observe 12 nearby disk galaxies. We successfully measure ages in the outer disk in six systems. In three cases (NGC 2684, NGC 6155, and NGC 7437), we find that a downward break in the disk surface ...

Stellar Populations Across cD Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
Abstract We present preliminary long-slit spectroscopy of a sample of nearby cD galaxies recently observed with the William Herschel and GEMINI North and South Telescopes. So far, we have accumulated data for 27 cDs. More is being observed with the GEMINI telescopes, to create a statistically significant sample.
