Galaxias espirales de núcleos activos: efecto de las barras en la actividad nuclear
En este trabajo se analizan galaxias espirales barreadas con núcleos activos (AGN), con el propósito de realizar estudios estadísticos acerca del efecto que pudiesen producir las barras sobre la actividad de los agujeros negros centrales. Para tal fin, construimos una muestra de galaxias AGN con barras, clasificadas por medio de inspección visual, a partir del séptimo relevamiento de Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-DR7). Además, se obtuvo una muestra de galaxias espirales AGN no-barreadas, con similares distribuciones de corrimiento al rojo, luminosidad y masa en estrellas que las galaxias AGN barreadas. Se presentan resultados preliminares del efecto de las barras sobre la actividad nuclear central, explorando diferentes propiedades de las galaxias espirales barreadas huéspedes de AGN, en comparación con su contraparte de galaxias no-barreadas.In this work we analyze barred active galactic nuclei galaxies (AGN), in order to study the effect produced by the bars on the central black hole activity. We construct a sample of AGN galaxies with bars, classified by visual inspection, from the seventh release of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-DR7). In addition, we construct a non-barred AGN galaxy sample with similar redshift distributions, luminosity and mass in stars than barred AGN galaxies. We present preliminary results of the effect of bars on the central nuclear activity, exploring different properties of barred spiral AGN galaxies, compared to its counterpart in non-barred galaxies.Fil: Alonso Giraldes, Maria Sol.

AGN spiral galaxies in groups: effects of bars
AIMS: We explore properties of barred active spiral galaxies in groups and clusters selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release 7 (SDSS-DR7), with the aim of assessing the effects of bars on active galactic nuclei (AGN) and the role of the high density environment.
METHODS: We identified barred active galaxies that reside in groups and clusters by cross-correlating the total barred AGN sample with the SDSS-DR7 group catalog. With the goal of providing a suitable quantification of the effects of bars, a reliable control sample of unbarred active galaxies in high density environments with similar redshift, magnitude, morphology, and bulge size distributions was also constructed.
RESULTS: We found that the fraction of barred AGN galaxies in groups and clusters (≈38%) is higher than those in the total barred AGN sample (≈28%), indicating that AGN spiral galaxies in groups are more likely to be barred than those in the field. We also found that barred AGN galaxies are more concentrated towards the group centers than the other unbarred AGN group members. In addition, barred AGN host galaxies show an excess of population dominated by red colors, with respect to the control sample, suggesting that bars produce an important effect on galaxy colors of AGN hosts. The groups of AGN galaxies with and without bars show similar virial masses; however, the host groups of the barred AGN exhibit a larger fraction of red colors than the host groups of the corresponding unbarred active galaxies in the control sample. Color-magnitude relations of both host groups of AGN differ significantly: the host group colors of barred active galaxies display distributions spreading toward red populations, at the same (Mr)Group, with respect to the host groups of the unbarred AGN objects. This trend is more significant in less massive groups than in groups with MVirial> 1013.5M⊙. Barred active galaxies show an excess of nuclear activity compared to galaxies without bars in the control sample. We found that barred active galaxies located farther from the group-center have stronger Lum[OIII], while the nuclear activity in AGN galaxies without bars remain approximately constant with the group-centric distance. In addition, for both AGN samples, nuclear activity increases in bluer host groups however, barred active objects systematically show higher Lum[OIII] values, irrespective of the global group colors. Our findings suggest that the efficiency of bars to transport material towards the more central regions of the AGN galaxies in high density environments reveals an important dependence on the localization of objects within the group/cluster and on the host group colors.Fil: Alonso Giraldes, Maria Sol.

Occurrence of LINER galaxies within the galaxy group environment
We study the properties of a sample of 3967 low-ionization nuclear emission-line region (LINER) galaxies selected from SDSS-DR7, with respect to their proximity to galaxy groups. The host galaxies of LINERs have been analysed and compared with a well-defined control sample of 3841 non-LINER galaxies matched in redshift, luminosity, colour, morphology, age and stellar mass content. We find no difference between LINER and control galaxies in terms of the colour and age of stellar population as a function of the virial mass and distance to the geometric centre of the group. However, we find that LINERs are more likely to populate low-density environments in spite of their morphology, which is typical of high-density regions such as rich galaxy clusters. For rich (poor) galaxy groups, the occurrence of LINERs is approximately two times lower (higher) than the occurrence of matched, non-LINER galaxies. Moreover, LINER hosts do not seem to follow the expected morphology–density relation in groups of high virial mass. The high frequency of LINERs in low-density regions could be due to the combination of a sufficient gas reservoir to power the low-ionization emission and/or enhanced galaxy interaction rates benefiting the gas flow towards their central regions.Fil: Coldwell Lloveras, Georgina Vanesa.

LINER galaxy properties and the local environment
We analyse the properties of a sample of 5560 low-ionization nuclear emission-line region (LINER) galaxies selected from SDSS-DR12 at lowred shift, for a complete range of local density environments. The host LINER galaxies were studied and compared with a well-defined control sample of 5553 non-LINER galaxies matched in red shift, luminosity, morphology and local density. By studying the distributions of galaxy colours and the stellar age population, we find that LINERs are redder and older than the control sample over a wide range of densities. In addition, LINERs are older than the control sample, at a given galaxy colour, indicating that some external process could have accelerated the evolution of the stellar population. The analysis of the host properties shows that the control sample exhibits a strong relation between colours, ages and the local density, while more than 90 per cent of the LINERs are redder and older than the mean values, independently of the neighbourhood density. Furthermore, a detailed study in three local density ranges shows that, while control sample galaxies are redder and older as a function of stellar mass and density, LINER galaxies mismatch the known morphology-density relation of galaxies without low-ionization features. The results support the contribution of hot and old stars to the low-ionization emission although the contribution of nuclear activity is not discarded.Fil: Coldwell Lloveras, Georgina Vanesa.

Major and minor mergers: global star formation efficiency
Se realizó un análisis de interacciones mayores y menores seleccionadas a partir del catálogo espectroscópico Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSSDR7). Se construyó una muestra de galaxias en pares cercanos aplicando el límite de separaciones proyectadas, rp By visual inspection of SDSS images we removed false identifications and we classify the interactions into three categories: pairs undergoing merging, M; pairs with evident tidal features, T; and non disturbed, N.We also divide the pair sample into minor and major interactions according to the luminosity ratio of the galaxy members. We conclude that the characteristics of the interactions and the ratio of luminosity galaxy pair members involved in a merger are important parameters in setting galaxy properties.Fil: Mesa, Valeria Alejandra.

Galaxy triplets in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7: II. A connection with compact groups?
We analyse a sample of 71 triplets of luminous galaxies derived from the work of O´Mill et al. We compare the properties of triplets and their members with those of control samples of compact groups, the 10 brightest members of rich clusters and galaxies in pairs. The triplets are restricted to have members with spectroscopic redshifts in the range 0.01<=z<=0.14 and absolute r-band luminosities brighter than Mr=-20.5. For these member galaxies, we analyse the stellar mass content, the star formation rates, the Dn(4000) parameter and (Mg-Mr) colour index. Since galaxies in triplets may finally merge in a single system, we analyse different global properties of these systems. We calculate the probability that the properties of galaxies in triplets are strongly correlated. We also study total star formation activity and global colours, and define the triplet compactness as a measure of the percentage of the system total area that is filled by the light of member galaxies. We concentrate in the comparison of our results with those of compact groups to assess how the triplets are a natural extension of these compact systems. Our analysis suggests that triplet galaxy members behave similarly to compact group members and galaxies in rich clusters.We also find that systems comprising three blue, star-forming, young stellar population galaxies (blue triplets) are most probably real systems and not a chance configuration of interloping galaxies. The same holds for triplets composed of three red, non-star-forming galaxies, showing the correlation of galaxy properties in these systems. From the analysis of the triplet as a whole, we conclude that, at a given total stellar mass content, triplets show a total star formation activity and global colours similar to compact groups. However, blue triplets show a high total star formation activity with a lower stellar mass content. From an analysis of the compactness parameter of the systems we find that light is even more concentrated in triplets than in compact groups. We propose that triplets composed of three luminous galaxies, should not be considered as an analogous of galaxy pairs with a third extra member, but rather they are a natural extension of compact groups.Fil: Duplancic Videla, Maria Fernanda.

Interacting galaxies: corotating and counter-rotating systems with tidal tails
We analyse interacting galaxy pairs with evidence of tidal features in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7. The pairs were selected within z < 0.1 by requiring a projected separation rp < 50 h− 1 kpc and relative radial velocity ΔV < 500 km s−1. We complete spectroscopic pairs using galaxies with photometric redshifts considering ΔVphot < 6800 km s−1, taking into account the mean photometric redshift uncertainty. We classify by visual inspection pairs of spirals into corotating and counter-rotating systems. For a subsample of non-active galactic nucleus (non-AGN) galaxies, counter-rotating pairs have larger star formation rates and a higher fraction of young, star-forming galaxies. These effects are enhanced by restricting to rp < 12 h− 1 kpc. The distributions of C, Dn(4000) and (Mu − Mr) for AGN galaxies show that counter-rotating hosts have bluer colours and younger stellar population than the corotating galaxies although the relative fractions of Seyfert, LINER, Composite and Ambiguous AGN are similar. Also, counter-rotating hosts have more powerful AGN as revealed by enhanced Lum[O III] values. The number of corotating systems is approximately twice the number of counter-rotating pairs which could be owed to a more rapid evolution of counter-rotating systems, besides possible different initial conditions of these interacting pairs.Fil: Mesa, Valeria Alejandra.

The impact of bars and interactions on optically selected AGNs in spiral galaxies
Aims. With the aim of performing a suitable comparison of the internal process of galactic bars with respect to the external effect of interactions on driving gas toward the inner most region of the galaxies, we explored and compared the efficiency of both mechanisms on central nuclear activity in optically selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in spiral galaxies. Methods. We selected homogeneous samples of barred AGNs and active objects residing in pair systems, derived from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). In order to carry out a reliable comparison of both samples (AGNs in barred hosts in isolation and in galaxy pairs), we selected spiral AGN galaxies with similar distributions of redshift, magnitude, stellar mass, color and stellar age population from both catalogs. With the goal of providing an appropriate quantification of the influence of strong bars and interactions on nuclear activity, we also constructed a suitable control sample of unbarred spiral AGNs without a companion and with similar host properties to the other two samples. Results. We found that barred optically selected AGNs show an excess of nuclear activity (as derived from the Lum[OIII]) and accretion rate onto a central black hole () with respect to AGNs in pairs. In addition, both samples show an excess of high values of Lum[OIII] and with respect to unbarred AGNs in the control sample. We also found that the fractions of AGNs with powerful nuclear activity and high accretion rates increase toward more massive hosts with bluer colors and younger stellar populations. Moreover, AGNs with bars exhibit a higher fraction of galaxies with powerful Lum[OIII] and efficient with respect to AGN galaxies inhabiting pair systems, in bins of different galaxy properties. Regarding AGNs belonging to pair systems, we found that the central nuclear activity is remarkably dependent on the galaxy pair companion features. The Lum[OIII] for AGNs in pairs is clearly enhanced when the galaxy companion exhibits a bright and more massive host with high metallicity, blue color, efficient star formation activity and young stellar population. The results of this work reveal an important capacity of both mechanisms, bars and interactions, to transport material towards the galaxy central regions. In this context, it should also be noted that the internal process of the bar is more efficient at improving the central nuclear activity in AGN objects than that corresponding to the external mechanism of the galaxy-galaxy interactions.Fil: Alonso Giraldes, Maria Sol.

Confirmation of a galaxy cluster hidden behind the Galactic bulge using the VVV survey
Context. S uzaku and Chandra X-ray observations detected a new cluster of galaxies, Suzaku J1759−3450, at a redshift z = 0.13. It is located behind the Milky Way, and the high Galactic dust extinction renders it nearly invisible at optical wavelengths. Aims. We attempt here to confirm the galaxy cluster with near-infrared imaging observations and to characterize its central member galaxies. Methods. Images from the VVV survey were used to detect candidate member galaxies of Suzaku J1759−3450 within the central region of the cluster up to 350 kpc from the X-ray peak emission. Color–magnitude diagrams, color–color diagrams, and morphology criteria allowed us to select the galaxies among the numerous foreground sources. Results. Fifteen candidate cluster members were found very close to a modeled red-sequence at the redshift of the cluster. Five members are extremely bright, and one is possibly a cD galaxy. The asymmetry in the spatial distribution of the galaxies with respect to the X-ray peak emission is an indicator that this cluster is still suffering a virialization process. Conclusions. Our investigation of Suzaku J1759−3450 demonstrates the potential of the VVV survey to study the hidden population of galaxies in the zone of avoidance.Fil: Coldwell Lloveras, Georgina Vanesa.

The orientation of galaxy pairs with filamentary structures: Dependence on morphology
Aims. With the aim of performing an analysis of the orientations of galaxy pair systems with respect to the underlying large-scale structure, we study the alignment between the axis connecting the pair galaxies and the host cosmic filament where the pair resides. In addition, we analyze the dependence of the amplitude of the alignment on the morphology of pair members as well as filament properties. Methods. We build a galaxy pair catalog requiring rp < 100 h-1 kpc and ΔV < 500 km s-1 within redshift z < 0.1 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We divided the galaxy pair catalog taking into account the morphological classification by defining three pair categories composed by elliptical-elliptical (E-E), elliptical-spiral (E-S) and spiral-spiral (S-S) galaxies. We use a previously defined catalog of filaments obtained from SDSS and we select pairs located closer than 1 h-1 Mpc to the filament spine, which are considered as members of filaments. For these pairs, we calculate the relative angle between the axis connecting each galaxy, and the direction defined by the spine of the parent filament. Results. We find a statistically significant alignment signal between the pair axes and the spine of the host filaments consistent with a relative excess of ∼15% aligned pairs. We obtain that pairs composed by elliptical galaxies exhibit a stronger alignment, showing a higher alignment signal for pairs closer than 200 h-1 kpc to the filament spine. In addition, we find that the aligned pairs are associated with luminous host filaments populated with a high fraction of elliptical galaxies. The findings of this work show that large-scale structures play a fundamental role in driving galactic anisotropic accretion as induced by galaxy pairs exhibiting a preferred alignment along the filament direction.Fil: Mesa, Valeria Alejandra.
