Descripción
Dos cuestiones fundamentales en la Astrofísica son la conversión de gas molecuar en estrellas y cómo este proceso físico depende del entorno en todas las escalas, desde sistemas planetarios, cúmulos estelares, galaxias hasta cúmulos de galaxias. El objectivo principal de este proyecto es el de estudiar la formación y evolución de galaxias a partir de la materia interstellar. Por ello, estudiaremos el gas molecuar frío, el combustible de la formación estelar y el polvo, producto residual del proceso de formación, en galaxias a través del tiempo cósmico. Los estudios están basados, sobre todo, en observaciones en el infrarrojo lejano y en el radio. Nos centraremos en observaciones con interferómetros de radio como son NOEMA, ALMA, ATCA, SMA y VLA. Se preveen estrechas colaboraciones con otros proyectos del IAC, sobre todo para observaciones de galaxias con telescopios de radio. El grupo de trabajo caracterizará las propiedades de la formación estelar de galaxias masivas en el universo lejano a través del tiempo cósmico. Esto nos dará la oportunidad de estudiar la secuencia de formación de galaxias con brote estelar. Además, este grupo de trabajo investigará fuentes selecionadas desde cúmulos de galaxias y del campo para explorar la evolución de galaxias en funcion del entorno. Además, realizaremos estudios complementarios de galaxias locales (seleccionadas desde CALIFA y WEAVE-APERTIF) que servirán de referencia para investigaciones futuras de galaxias a alto redshift.

Consistency of cosmic shear analyses in harmonic and real spaceRecent cosmic shear studies have reported discrepancies of up to 1σ on the parameter ${S_{8}=\sigma _{8}\sqrt{{\Omega _{\rm m}}/0.3}}$ between the analysis of shear power spectra and two-point correlation functions, derived from the same shear catalogues. It is not a priori clear whether the measured discrepancies are consistent with statisticalDoux, C. et al.

No Evidence for Orbital Clustering in the Extreme Trans-Neptunian ObjectsThe apparent clustering in longitude of perihelion ϖ and ascending node Ω of extreme trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs) has been attributed to the gravitational effects of an unseen 5-10 Earth-mass planet in the outer solar system. To investigate how selection bias may contribute to this clustering, we consider 14 ETNOs discovered by the Dark EnergyNapier, K. J. et al.

A titanic interstellar medium ejection from a massive starburst galaxy at redshift 1.4Feedback-driven winds from star formation or active galactic nuclei might be a relevant channel for the abrupt quenching of star formation in massive galaxies. However, both observations and simulations support the idea that these processes are non-conflictingly co-evolving and self-regulating. Furthermore, evidence of disruptive events that arePuglisi, Annagrazia et al.

The infrared-radio correlation of star-forming galaxies is strongly M<SUB>⋆</SUB>-dependent but nearly redshift-invariant since z ∼ 4Over the past decade, several works have used the ratio between total (rest 8‒1000 μm) infrared and radio (rest 1.4 GHz) luminosity in star-forming galaxies (q IR), often referred to as the infrared-radio correlation (IRRC), to calibrate the radio emission as a star formation rate (SFR) indicator. Previous studies constrained the evolution of q IRDelvecchio, I. et al.

Turbulent Gas in Lensed Planck-selected Starbursts at z ∼ 1-3.5Dusty star-forming galaxies at high redshift (1 < z < 3) represent the most intense star-forming regions in the universe. Key aspects to these processes are the gas heating and cooling mechanisms, and although it is well known that these galaxies are gas-rich, little is known about the gas excitation conditions.

DES Y1 results: Splitting growth and geometry to test Λ CDMWe analyze Dark Energy Survey (DES) data to constrain a cosmological model where a subset of parameters—focusing on Ω m—are split into versions associated with structure growth (e.g., Ω m grow) and expansion history (e.g., Ω m geo).
