NGC 1316 BVI images (Cantiello+, 2013)

Scritto il 24 Apr 2013 alle 01:40 in Pubblicazioni

This work is based on data of NGC1316 from the Very Large Telescope
(VLT). We used B, V and I-band observations obtained with the FORS1
Imager at ESO’s VLT in Paranal (Program 64.H-0624(A), P.I. M. Della
Valle).

The data reduction was carried out with the VST-Tube imaging pipeline.
VST-Tube is a very versatile software for astronomical data analysis,
tested against imaging data taken with different telescopes/detectors,
adaptable to existing or future multi-CCD cameras

(2 data files).

FIR-detected Lyman break galaxies at z ~ 3: Dust attenuation and dust correction factors at high redshift

Scritto il 13 Apr 2013 alle 01:39 in Pubblicazioni

Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) represent one of the kinds of star-forming
galaxies that are found in the high-redshift universe. The detection of
LBGs in the FIR domain can provide very important clues on their dust
attenuation and total SFR, allowing a more detailed study than those
performed so far. In this work we explore the FIR emission of a sample
of 16 LBGs at z ~ 3 in the GOODS-North and GOODS-South fields that are
individually detected in PACS-100um or PACS-160um. These detections
demonstrate the possibility of measuring the dust emission of LBGs at
high redshift. We find that…
