  • On the accretion of a new group of galaxies onto Virgo - III. The stellar population radial gradients of dEs

    Using MUSE data, we investigate the radial gradients of stellar population properties (namely age, [M/H], and the abundance ratio of α elements [α/Fe]) for a sample of nine dwarf early-type (dE) galaxies with log(M⋆/M⊙) ~ 9.0 and an infall time onto the Virgo cluster of 2-3 Gyr ago. We followed a similar approach as in Bidaran et al. to derive

  • The Dark Energy Survey Year 3 high-redshift sample: selection, characterization, and analysis of galaxy clustering

    The fiducial cosmological analyses of imaging surveys like DES typically probe the Universe at redshifts z < 1. We present the selection and characterization of high-redshift galaxy samples using DES Year 3 data, and the analysis of their galaxy clustering measurements. In particular, we use galaxies that are fainter than those used in the previous

  • The elemental abundance of quiescent galaxies in the LEGA-C survey: the (non-)evolution of [α/Fe] from z = 0.75 to z = 0

    We measure the [α/Fe] abundances for 183 quiescent galaxies at z = 0.60-0.75 with stellar masses ranging 10.4 ≤ log10(M*/M⊙) ≤ 11.6 selected from the Large Early Galaxy Astrophysics Census survey. We estimate [α/Fe] from the ratio of the spectral indices Mgb (λ ~ 5177 Å) and Fe4383, compared to predictions of simple stellar population models. We

  • A brief review of contrastive learning applied to astrophysics

    Reliable tools to extract patterns from high-dimensionality spaces are becoming more necessary as astronomical data sets increase both in volume and complexity. Contrastive Learning is a self-supervised machine learning algorithm that extracts informative measurements from multidimensional data sets, which has become increasingly popular in the

  • Bayesian evidence for two slow-wave damping models in hot coronal loops

    We computed the evidence in favour of two models, one based on field-aligned thermal conduction alone and another that includes thermal misbalance as well, to explain the damping of slow magneto-acoustic waves in hot coronal loops. Our analysis is based on the computation of the marginal likelihood and the Bayes factor for the two damping models

  • A Tale of Two Disks: Mapping the Milky Way with the Final Data Release of APOGEE

    We present new maps of the Milky Way disk showing the distribution of metallicity ([Fe/H]), α-element abundances ([Mg/Fe]), and stellar age, using a sample of 66,496 red giant stars from the final data release (DR17) of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment survey. We measure radial and vertical gradients, quantify the
