The dynamical and chemical evolution of dwarf spheroidal galaxies

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz

We present a large sample of fully self-consistent hydrodynamical Nbody/Tree-SPH simulations of isolated dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs). It has enabled us to identify the key physical parameters and mechanisms at the origin of the observed variety in th ...

The NIR Ca II triplet at low metallicity Searching for extremely low-metallicity stars in classical dwarf galaxies

Pascale Jablonka, Martin Tafelmeyer

The NIR Ca II triplet absorption lines have proven to be an important tool for quantitative spectroscopy of individual red giant branch stars in the Local Group, providing a better understanding of metallicities of stars in the Milky Way and dwarf galaxies ...

The Pristine survey - XIV. Chemical analysis of two ultra-metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

Elemental abundances of the most metal-poor stars reflect the conditions in the early Galaxy and the properties of the first stars. We present a spectroscopic follow-up of two ultra-metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] < -4.0) identified by the survey Pristine: Pristi ...

Molecular gas and star formation activity in luminous infrared galaxies in clusters at intermediate redshifts

Pascale Jablonka, Gianluca Castignani, Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

We investigate the role of dense megaparsec-scale environments in processing molecular gas of cluster galaxies as they fall into the cluster cores. We selected a sample of similar to 20 luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) belonging to intermediate-redshift ...

The Pristine survey - XVI. The metallicity of 26 stellar streams around the Milky Way detected with the STREAMFINDER in Gaia EDR3

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

We use the photometric metallicities provided by the panoramic Pristine survey to study the veracity and derive the metallicities of the numerous stellar streams found by the application of the STREAMFINDER algorithm to the Gaia Early Data Release 3 data. ...

Euclid: Early Release Observations – Programme overview and pipeline for compact- and diffuse-emission photometry

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Pascale Jablonka

The Euclid Early Release Observations (ERO) showcase Euclid’s capabilities in advance of its main mission by targeting 17 astronomical objects, including galaxy clusters, nearby galaxies, globular clusters, and star-forming regions. A total of 24 hours of ...

The extremely low-metallicity tail of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

We present abundances for seven stars in the (extremely) low-metallicity tail of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, from spectra taken with X-shooter on the ESO VLT. Targets were selected from the Ca II triplet (CaT) survey of the dwarf abundances and r ...

What is the Milky Way outer halo made of? High resolution spectroscopy of distant red giants

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North

In a framework where galaxies form hierarchically, extended stellar haloes are predicted to be an ubiquitous feature around Milky Way-like galaxies and to consist mainly of the shredded stellar component of smaller galactic systems. The type of accreted st ...

Euclid: Early Release Observations – Dwarf galaxies in the Perseus galaxy cluster

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Pascale Jablonka

We make use of the unprecedented depth, spatial resolution, and field of view of the Euclid Early Release Observations (EROs) of the Perseus galaxy cluster to detect and characterise the dwarf galaxy population in this massive system. Using a dedicated ann ...

Population gradient in the Sextans dSph: comprehensive mapping of a dwarf galaxy by Suprime-Cam

Pascale Jablonka

We present the deep and wide V and I-c photometry of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) taken by the Suprime-Cam imager on the Subaru Telescope, which extends out to the tidal radius. The colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) reaches two magnitudes below ...

Deep learning-based galaxy image deconvolution

Frédéric Courbin, Pascale Jablonka, Utsav Akhaury

With the onset of large-scale astronomical surveys capturing millions of images, there is an increasing need to develop fast and accurate deconvolution algorithms that generalize well to different images. A powerful and accessible deconvolution method woul ...

Disc colours in field and cluster spiral galaxies at 0.5 less than or similar to z less than or similar to 0.8

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Jacques Joseph Marie Cantale

We present a detailed study of the colours of late-type galaxy discs for ten of the EDisCS galaxy clusters with 0.5 less than or similar to z less than or similar to 0.8. Our cluster sample contains 172 spiral galaxies, and our control sample is composed o ...

The Pristine survey IV: approaching the Galactic metallicity floor with the discovery of an ultra-metal-poor star

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard, Marc Gentile, Silvia Martin de Nicolas Agut

The early Universe presented a star formation environment that was almost devoid of heavy elements. The lowest metallicity stars thus provide a unique window into the earliest Galactic stages, but are exceedingly rare and difficult to find. Here, we presen ...

The Tucana dwarf spheroidal galaxy: not such a massive failure after all

Pascale Jablonka

Context. Isolated local group (LG) dwarf galaxies have evolved most or all of their life unaffected by interactions with the large LG spirals and therefore offer the opportunity to learn about the intrinsic characteristics of this class of objects. Aims. O ...

The post-infall evolution of a satellite galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Matthew Luke Nichols

We describe a new method that only focuses on the local region surrounding an infalling dwarf in an effort to understand how the hot baryonic halo alters the chemodynamical evolution of dwarf galaxies. Using this method, we examine how a dwarf, similar to ...

The Pristine dwarf galaxy survey - IV. Probing the outskirts of the dwarf galaxy Bootes I

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard, Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

We present a new spectroscopic study of the dwarf galaxy Bootes I (Boo I) with data from the Anglo-Australian Telescope and its AAOmega spectrograph together with the Two Degree Field multi-object system. We observed 36 high-probability Boo I stars selecte ...

Molecular gas in cool-core brightest cluster galaxies at z ≃ 0.4

Pascale Jablonka

The brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) of today are passive and very massive galaxies at the center of their clusters. They still accrete mass by swallowing companions and flows of cold gas, processes which are regulated by radio-mode active galactic nucleu ...

H alpha-based star formation rates in and around z similar to 0.5 EDisCS clusters

Pascale Jablonka, Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

We investigate the role of environment on star formation rates (SFRs) of galaxies at various cosmic densities in well-studied clusters. We present the star-forming main sequence for 163 galaxies in four EDisCS clusters in the range 0.4 < z < 0.7. We use Hu ...

Tracing the formation of the Milky Way through ultra metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We use Gaia DR2 astrometric and photometric data, published radial velocities and MESA models to infer distances, orbits, surface gravities, and effective temperatures for all ultra metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] < -4.0 dex) available in the literature. Assuming ...
