  • Morphology rather than environment drives the SFR-mass relation in the local universe
    Exploiting a sample of 680 star-forming galaxies from the Padova Millennium Galaxy Group Catalog (PM2GC; Calvi, Poggianti & Vulcani 2011) in the range 0.038 ≤ z ≤ 0.104, we present a detailed analysis of the star formation rate (SFR)-stellar mass (M*) and specific SFR (SSFR)-M* relations as a function of environment. We adopt three different

  • Mirach's Goblin: Discovery of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy behind the Andromeda galaxy
    Context. It is of broad interest for galaxy formation theory to carry out a full inventory of the numbers and properties of dwarf galaxies, both satellite and isolated, in the Local Volume. Aims: Ultra-deep imaging in wide areas of the sky with small amateur telescopes can help to complete the census of these hitherto unknown low-surface-brightness

  • Microlensing Results Challenge the Core Accretion Runaway Growth Scenario for Gas Giants
    We compare the planet-to-star mass-ratio distribution measured by gravitational microlensing to core accretion theory predictions from population synthesis models. The core accretion theory’s runaway gas accretion process predicts a dearth of intermediate-mass giant planets that is not seen in the microlensing results. In particular, the models

  • MAHALO Deep Cluster Survey II. Characterizing massive forming galaxies in the Spiderweb protocluster at z = 2.2
    This paper is the second in a series presenting the results of our deep H α-line survey towards protoclusters at z > 2, based on narrow-band imaging with the Subaru Telescope. This work investigates massive galaxies in a protocluster region associated with a radio galaxy (PKS 1138 - 262), the Spiderweb galaxy, at z = 2.2. Our 0.5 mag deeper narrow

  • Growing a `cosmic beast': observations and simulations of MACS J0717.5+3745
    We present a gravitational lensing and X-ray analysis of a massive galaxy cluster and its surroundings. The core of MACS J0717.5+3745 (M(R

  • GroundBIRD: Observation of CMB Polarization with a Rapid Scanning and MKIDs
    Cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation is an afterglow from the Big Bang. CMB contains rich information about the early stage of the universe. In particular, odd-parity patterns ( B-mode) in the CMB polarization on a large angular scale would provide an evidence of the cosmic inflation. The aim of the GroundBIRD experiment is to observe the B
