Journal Article
Ruiz-Lara, T., Few, C. G., Florido, E., Gibson, B. K., Pérez, I., & Sánchez-Blázquez, P. (2017). The role of stellar radial motions in shaping galaxy surface brightness profiles. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 608, A126. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201731485

Aims. The physics driving features such as breaks observed in galaxy surface brightness (SB) profiles remains contentious. Here, we assess the importance of stellar radial motions in shaping their characteristics. Methods. We use the simulated Milky...

The effects of the initial mass function on the chemical evolution of elliptical galaxies (2017)
Journal Article
De Masi, C., Matteucci, F., & Vincenzo, F. (2018). The effects of the initial mass function on the chemical evolution of elliptical galaxies. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 474(4), 5259-5271. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stx3044

We describe the use of our chemical evolution model to reproduce the abundance patterns observed in a catalogue of elliptical galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4. The model assumes ellipticals form by fast gas accretion, and suf... Read More about The effects of the initial mass function on the chemical evolution of elliptical galaxies.

We report experimental evidence for a crossover between a liquid-like state and a gas-like state in fluid methane (CH₄). This crossover is observed in all of our experiments, up to 397 K temperature; 2.1 times the critical temperature of methane. The...
