Cortesi, A., Chies-Santos, A. L., Pota, V., Foster, C., Coccato, L., Mendes de Oliveira, C., …Almeida, A. (2016). The SLUGGS survey: chromodynamical modelling of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1023. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 456(3), 2611-2621. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv2753

Globular clusters (GCs) can be considered discrete, long-lived, dynamical tracers that retain crucial information about the assembly history of their parent galaxy. In this paper, we present a new catalogue of GC velocities and colours for the lentic... Read More about The SLUGGS survey: chromodynamical modelling of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1023.

Journal Article
Driver, S. P., Wright, A. H., Andrews, S. K., Davies, L. J., Kafle, P. R., Lange, R., …Williams, R. (2016). Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Panchromatic Data Release (far-UV–far-IR) and the low-zenergy budget. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 455(4), https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv2505

We present the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) Panchromatic Data Release (PDR) constituting over 230 deg2 of imaging with photometry in 21 bands extending from the far-UV to the far-IR. These data complement our spectroscopic campaign of over 300k ga... Read More about Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Panchromatic Data Release (far-UV–far-IR) and the low-zenergy budget.

Wavelength self-calibration and sky subtraction for Fabry–Pérot interferometers: applications to OSIRIS (2015)
Journal Article
Weinzirl, T., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Bamford, S., Rodríguez del Pino, B., Gray, M., & Chies-Santos, A. (2015). Wavelength self-calibration and sky subtraction for Fabry–Pérot interferometers: applications to OSIRIS. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 454(2), https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv2230

We describe techniques concerning wavelength calibration and sky subtraction to maximize the scientific utility of data from tunable filter instruments. While we specifically address data from the Optical System for Imaging and low Resolution Integra...

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): the wavelength dependence of galaxy structure versus redshift and luminosity (2015)
Journal Article
Kennedy, R., Bamford, S. P., Baldry, I., Häußler, B., Holwerda, B. W., Hopkins, A. M., …Vulcani, B. (2015). Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): the wavelength dependence of galaxy structure versus redshift and luminosity. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 454(1), https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv2032

We study how the sizes and radial profiles of galaxies vary with wavelength, by fitting Sersic functions simultaneously to imaging in nine optical and near-infrared bands. To quantify the wavelength dependence of effective radius we use the ratio, R,...

© 2015 The Authors. We use data from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey in the redshift range 0.01 < z < 0.1 (8399 galaxies in g to Ks bands) to derive the stellar mass-half-light radius relations for various divisions of 'early'- and 'late'-...
