Evolution of fundamental parameters in emission line galaxies up to z = 0.4

In this work we focus on the evolution of the SFR, metallicity of the gas, and morphology of galaxies at low redshift in search of signs of evolution. We analyzed the evolution of the SFR, metallicity, and morphology, through the mass-metallicity, luminosity-metallicity, SFR-stellar mass, and SFR-metallicity relationships of star-forming galaxies from SDSS-DR5 (Sloan Digital Sky Survey-Data Release 5), using redshift intervals in bins of 0.1 from ˜ 0 to 0.4We used data processed with the STARLIGHT spectral synthesis code, correcting the fluxes for dust extinction, and estimating...

OTELO project: first results

The OTELO project is the extragalactic survey currently under way using
the tunable filters of theinstrument OSIRIS at the GTC. OTELO is
providing the deepest emission line object survey of the universe up to
a redshift 7. In this contribution, the first images will be shown
together with some preliminary results.

Old Novae: When New Becomes Old*

Despite their brightness at maximum, classical novae are very faint at minimum light implying little or no follow up at all during quiescence. In fact, about 3/4 of the 204 novae that erupted before 1980 still lack spectroscopic observations or even an unambiguous identification of the post-nova. We embarked on a project aimed at deriving the physical properties of old novae decades after the explosion thus placing post-novae in the framework of CV-evolution and being able to compare the characteristics of the eruption with the characteristics of the remnant. We present an...
