    Despite numerous efforts, it is still unclear whether lenticular galaxies (S0s) evolve from spirals whose star formation was suppressed, or formed trough mergers or disc instabilities. In this paper we present a pilot study of 21 S0 galaxies in extreme environments (field and cluster), and compare their spatially resolved kinematics and global stellar populations. Our aim is to identify whether there are different mechanisms that form S0s in different environments. Our results show that the kinematics of S0 galaxies in field and cluster are, indeed, different. Lenticulars in the cluster are more rotationally supported, suggesting that they are formed through processes that involve the rapid consumption or removal of gas (e.g. starvation, ram pressure stripping). In contrast, S0s in the field are more pressure supported, suggesting that minor mergers served mostly to shape their kinematic properties. These results are independent of total mass, luminosity, or disc-to-bulge ratio. On the other hand, the mass-weighted age, metallicity, and star formation time-scale of the galaxies correlate more with mass than with environment, in agreement with known relations from previous work, such as the one between mass and metallicity. Overall, our results re-enforce the idea that there are multiple mechanisms that produce S0s, and that both mass and environment play key roles. A larger sample is highly desirable to confirm or refute the results and the interpretation of this pilot study.

    Morphometry as a probe of the evolution of jellyfish galaxies: evidence of broadening in the surface brightness profiles of ram-pressure stripping candidates in the multicluster system A901/A902
    (Oxford Academics: Oxford University Press, 2021-01-22) Roman Oliveira, F.; Chies Santos, A. L.; Ferrari, Fabricio; Lucatelli, G.; Rodriguez Del Pino, Bruno; Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI); Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES); 0000-0002-0056-1970; 0000-0002-2410-1776; 0000-0001-7959-7054; 0000-0003-3220-0165; 0000-0001-5171-3930
    We explore the morphometric properties of a group of 73 ram-pressure stripping candidates in the A901/A902 multicluster system, at z∼ 0.165, to characterize the morphologies and structural evolution of jellyfish galaxies. By employing a quantitative measurement of morphometric indicators with the algorithm MORFOMETRYKA on Hubble Space Telescope (F606W) images of the galaxies, we present a novel morphology-based method for determining trail vectors. We study the surface brightness profiles and curvature of the candidates and compare the results obtained with two analysis packages, MORFOMETRYKA and IRAF/ELLIPSE on retrieving information of the irregular structures present in the galaxies. Our morphometric analysis shows that the ram-pressure stripping candidates have peculiar concave regions in their surface brightness profiles. Therefore, these profiles are less concentrated (lower Sérsic indices) than other star-forming galaxies that do not show morphological features of ram-pressure stripping. In combination with morphometric trail vectors, this feature could both help identify galaxies undergoing ram-pressure stripping and reveal spatial variations in the star formation rate.

    The host galaxies of luminous type 2 AGNs at z ∼ 0.3–0.4
    (Oxford Academics: Oxford University Press, 2019-02-28) Urbano Mayorgas, J. J.; Villar Martín, M.; Buitrago, F.; Piqueras López, J.; Rodriguez Del Pino, Bruno; Koekemoer, A.

J.; Tadhunter, C.; Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT); Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO); Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI); Buitrago, F. [0000-0002-2861-9812]; Koekemoer, A. M. [0000-0002-6610-2048]
    We study the morphological and structural properties of the host galaxies associated with 57 optically selected luminous type 2 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at z ∼ 0.3–0.4: 16 high-luminosity Seyfert 2 [HLSy2, 8.0 ≤ log(⁠L[OIII]/L⊙)< 8.3] and 41 obscured [QSO2, log(⁠L[OIII]/L⊙)≥ 8.3] quasars. With this work, the total number of QSO2s at z < 1 with parametrized galaxies increases from ∼35 to 76. Our analysis is based on Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 and ACS images that we fit with GALFIT. HLSy2s and QSO2s show a wide diversity of galaxy hosts. The main difference lies in the higher incidence of highly disturbed systems among QSO2s. This is consistent with a scenario in which galaxy interactions are the dominant mechanism triggering nuclear activity at the highest AGN power. There is a strong dependence of galaxy properties with AGN power (assuming L[OIII] is an adequate proxy). The relative contribution of the spheroidal component to the total galaxy light (B/T) increases with L[OIII]⁠. While systems dominated by the spheroidal component spread across the total range of L[OIII]⁠, most disc-dominated galaxies concentrate at log(⁠L[OIII]/L⊙)<8.6. This is expected if more powerful AGNs are powered by more massive black holes which are hosted by more massive bulges or spheroids. The average galaxy sizes (〈re〉) are 5.0 ± 1.5 kpc for HLSy2s and 3.9 ± 0.6 kpc for HLSy2s and QSO2s, respectively. These are significantly smaller than those found for QSO1s and narrow-line radio galaxies at similar z⁠. We put the results of our work in the context of related studies of AGNs with quasar-like luminosities.

    Formation of S0s in extreme environments II: The star-formation histories of bulges, discs, and lenses
    (Oxford Academics: Oxford University Press, 2021-01-18) Johnston, E. J.; Aragón Salamanca, A.; Fraser-McKelvie, A.; Merrifield, M.; Häubler, B.; Coccato, L.; Jaffé, Y.

    Different processes have been proposed to explain the formation of S0s, including mergers, disc instabilities, and quenched spirals. These processes are expected to dominate in different environments, and thus leave characteristic footprints in the kinematics and stellar populations of the individual components within the galaxies. New techniques enable us to cleanly disentangle the kinematics and stellar populations of these components in IFU observations. In this paper, we use BUDDI to spectroscopically extract the light from the bulge, disc, and lens components within a sample of eight S0 galaxies in extreme environments observed with MUSE. While the spectra of bulges and discs in S0 galaxies have been separated before, this work is the first to isolate the spectra of lenses. Stellar populations analysis revealed that the bulges and lenses have generally similar or higher metallicities than the discs, and the α-enhancement of the bulges and discs are correlated, while those of the lenses are completely unconnected to either component. We conclude that the majority of the mass in these galaxies was built up early in the lifetime of the galaxy, with the bulges and discs forming from the same material through dissipational processes at high redshift. The lenses, on the other hand, formed over independent time-scales at more random times within the lifetime of the galaxy, possibly from evolved bars. The younger stellar populations and asymmetric features seen in the field S0s may indicate that these galaxies have been affected more by minor mergers than the cluster galaxies.

    Extreme gas kinematics in an off-nuclear HII region of SDSS J143245.98+404300.3
    (EDP Sciences, 2019-10-03) Rodriguez Del Pino, Bruno; Arribas, Santiago; Piqueras López, J.; Crespo Gómez, A.; Vílchez, J. M.; Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO); University of Utah; Alfred P. Sloan Foundation (APSF); Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI); Unidad de Excelencia Científica María de Maeztu Centro de Astrobiología del Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial y CSIC, MDM-2017-0737
    We present and discuss the properties of an ionized gas component with extreme kinematics in a recently reported off-nuclear HII region located at ∼0.8−1.0 kpc from the nucleus of SDSS J143245.98+404300.3. The high-velocity-gas component is identified by the detection of very broad emission wings in the Hα line, with full width at half maximum (FWHM)  ≥ 850−1000 km s−1. Such gas kinematics are outstandingly high compared to other HII regions in local galaxies and are similar to those reported in some star-forming clumps of galaxies at z ∼ 2. The spatially resolved analysis indicates that the high-velocity gas extends at least ∼90 pc and it could be compatible with an ionized outflow entraining gas at a rate between approximately seven and nine times faster than the rate at which gas is being converted into stars. We do not detect broad emission wings in other emission lines such as Hβ, perhaps due to moderate dust extinction, nor in [N II]λλ6548, 6584 or [S II]λλ6717, 6731, which could be due to the presence of turbulent mixing layers originated by the impact of fast-flowing winds. The lack of spectral signatures associated to the presence of Wolf–Rayet stars points towards stellar winds from a large number of massive stars and/or supernovae as the likely mechanisms driving the high-velocity gas.

    Context. Ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) are characterised by extreme starburst (SB) and active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity, and are therefore ideal laboratories for studying the outflow phenomena and their feedback effects. We have recently started a project called Physics of ULIRGs with MUSE and ALMA (PUMA), which is a survey of 25 nearby (z < 0.165) ULIRGs observed with the integral field spectrograph MUSE and the interferometer ALMA. This sample includes systems with both AGN and SB nuclear activity in the pre- and post-coalescence phases of major mergers. Aims. The main goals of the project are (i) to study the prevalence of (ionised, neutral, and molecular) outflows as a function of the galaxy properties, (ii) to constrain the driving mechanisms of the outflows (e.g. distinguish between SB and AGN winds), and (iii) to identify and characterise feedback effects on the host galaxy. In this first paper, we present details on the sample selection, MUSE observations, and data reduction, and derive first high-level data products. Methods. MUSE data cubes were analysed to study the dynamical status of each of the 21 ULIRGs observed so far, taking the stellar kinematics and the morphological properties inferred from MUSE narrow-band images into account. We also located the ULIRG nuclei, taking advantage of near-infrared (HST) and millimeter (ALMA) data, and studied their optical spectra to infer (i) the ionisation state through standard optical line ratio diagnostics, and (ii) outflows in both atomic ionised ([O III], Hα) and neutral (Na ID) gas. Results. We show that the morphological and stellar kinematic classifications are consistent: post-coalescence systems are more likely associated with ordered motions, while interacting (binary) systems are dominated by non-ordered and streaming motions. We also find broad and asymmetric [O III] and Na ID profiles in almost all nuclear spectra, with line widths in the range [300 − 2000] km s−1, possibly associated with AGN- and SB-driven winds. This result reinforces previous findings that indicated that outflows are ubiquitous during the pre- and post-coalescence phases of major mergers.

    MUSE view of Arp220: Kpc-scale multi-phase outflow and evidence for positive feedback

    Context. Arp220 is the nearest and prototypical ultra-luminous infrared galaxy; it shows evidence of pc-scale molecular outflows in its nuclear regions and strongly perturbed ionised gas kinematics on kpc scales. It is therefore an ideal system for investigating outflow mechanisms and feedback phenomena in detail. Aims. We investigate the feedback effects on the Arp220 interstellar medium (ISM), deriving a detailed picture of the atomic gas in terms of physical and kinematic properties, with a spatial resolution that had never before been obtained (0.56″, i.e. ∼210 pc). Methods. We use optical integral-field spectroscopic observations from VLT/MUSE-AO to obtain spatially resolved stellar and gas kinematics, for both ionised ([N II]λ6583) and neutral (Na IDλλ5891, 96) components; we also derive dust attenuation, electron density, ionisation conditions, and hydrogen column density maps to characterise the ISM properties. Results. Arp220 kinematics reveal the presence of a disturbed kpc-scale disc in the innermost nuclear regions as well as highly perturbed multi-phase (neutral and ionised) gas along the minor axis of the disc, which we interpret as a galactic-scale outflow emerging from the Arp220 eastern nucleus. This outflow involves velocities up to ∼1000 km s−1 at galactocentric distances of ≈5 kpc; it has a mass rate of ∼50 M⊙ yr−1 and kinetic and momentum power of ∼1043 erg s−1 and ∼1035 dyne, respectively. The inferred energetics do not allow us to distinguish the origin of the outflows, namely whether they are active galactic nucleus- or starburst-driven. We also present evidence for enhanced star formation at the edges of – and within – the outflow, with a star-formation rate SFR ∼ 5 M⊙ yr−1 (i.e. ∼2% of the total SFR). Conclusions. Our findings suggest the presence of powerful winds in Arp220: They might be capable of heating or removing large amounts of gas from the host (“negative feedback”) but could also be responsible for triggering star formation (“positive feedback”).

    Stellar kinematics in the nuclear regions of nearby LIRGs with VLT-SINFONI Comparison with gas phases and implications for dynamical mass estimations
    (EDP Sciences, 2021-06-22) Crespo Gómez, A.; Piqueras López, J.; Arribas, Santiago; Pereira Santaella, M.; Colina, L.; Rodriguez Del Pino, Bruno; National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA); Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI); Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO); 0000-0003-2119-277X; 0000-0003-1580-1188; 0000-0001-7997-1640; 0000-0002-9090-4227; 0000-0001-5171-3930
    Context. Nearby luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) are often considered to be the local counterpart of the star forming galaxy (SFG) population at z > 1. Therefore, local LIRGs are ideal systems with which to perform spatially resolved studies on the physical processes that govern these objects and to validate assumptions made in high-z studies because of a lack of sensitivity and/or spatial resolution. Aims. In this work we analyse the spatially resolved kinematics of the stellar component in the inner r < 1–2 kpc of ten nearby (mean z = 0.014) LIRGs, establishing the dynamical state of the stars and estimating their dynamical masses (Mdyn). We compare the stellar kinematics with those for different gas phases, and analyse the relative effects of using different tracers when estimating dynamical masses. Methods. We use seeing-limited SINFONI H- and K-band spectroscopy in combination with ancillary infrared (IR) imaging from various instruments (NICMOS/F160W, NACO/Ks and IRAC/3.6 μm). The stellar kinematics are extracted in both near-IR bands by fitting the continuum emission using pPXF. The velocity maps are then modelled as rotating discs and used to extract the geometrical parameters (i.e. centre, PA, and inclination), which are compared with their photometric counterparts extracted from the near-IR images. We use the stellar and the previously extracted gas velocity and velocity dispersion maps to estimate the dynamical mass using the different tracers. Results. We find that the different gas phases have similar kinematics, whereas the stellar component is rotating with slightly lower velocities (i.e. V* ∼ 0.8Vg) but in significantly warmer orbits (i.e. σ* ∼ 2σg) than the gas phases, resulting in significantly lower V/σ for the stars (i.e. ∼1.5–2) than for the gas (i.e. ∼4–6). These ratios can be understood if the stars are rotating in thick discs while the gas phases are confined in dynamically cooler (i.e. thinner) rotating discs. However, these differences do not lead to significant discrepancies between the dynamical mass estimations based on the stellar and gas kinematics. This result suggests that the gas kinematics can be used to estimate Mdyn also in z ∼ 2 SFGs, a galaxy population that shares many structural and kinematic properties with local LIRGs.

    A fast-rotator post-starburst galaxy quenched by supermassive black-hole feedback at z = 3
    (Springer Nature, 2024-09-16) D’Eugenio, Francesco; Pérez-González, Pablo G., E. M.; Maiolino, Roberto; Scholtz, Jan; Perna, Michele; Circosta, Chiara; Übler, Hannah; Arribas, Santiago; Böker, Torsten; Bunker, Andrew J.; Carniani, Stefano; Charlot, Stephane; Chevallard, Jacopo; Cresci, Giovanni; Curtis-Lake, Emma; Jones, Gareth C.; Kumari, Nimisha; Lamperti, Isabella; Looser, Tobias J.; Parlanti, Eleonora; Rix, Hans Walter; Robertson, Brant; Rodriguez Del Pino, Bruno; Tacchella, Sandro; Venturi, Giacomo; Willott, Chris J.; European Research Council (ERC); Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (MICINN); Comunidad De Madrid; Agencia Estatal de Investigación (España); Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF); Arizona State University (ASU); State University of Santa Cruz (UESC); National Science Foundation (NSF)
    The most massive galaxies in the Universe stopped forming stars due to the time-integrated feedback from central supermassive black holes (SMBHs). However, the exact quenching mechanism is not yet understood, because local massive galaxies were quenched billions of years ago. Here we present JWST/NIRSpec integral-field spectroscopy observations of GS-10578, a massive, quiescent galaxy at redshift z = 3.064 ± 0.002. From its spectrum, we measure a stellar mass M⋆ = 1.6 ± 0.2 × 1011 M⊙ and a dynamical mass Mdyn = 2.0 ± 0.5 × 1011 M⊙. Half of its stellar mass formed at z = 3.7–4.6, and the system is now quiescent, with a current star-formation rate of less than 19 M⊙ yr−1. We detect ionized- and neutral-gas outflows traced by [O iii] emission and Na i absorption, with mass outflow rates 0.14–2.9 and 30–100 M⊙ yr−1, respectively. Outflow velocities reach vout ≈ 1,000 km s−1, comparable to the galaxy escape velocity. GS-10578 hosts an active galactic nucleus, evidence that these outflows are due to SMBH feedback. The neutral outflow rate is higher than the star-formation rate. Hence, this is direct evidence for ejective SMBH feedback, with a mass loading capable of interrupting star formation by rapidly removing its fuel. Stellar kinematics show ordered rotation, with spin parameter λRe=0.62±0.07, meaning GS-10578 is rotation-supported. This study presents direct evidence for ejective active galactic nucleus feedback in a massive, recently quenched galaxy, thus helping to clarify how SMBHs quench their hosts. The high value of λRe implies that quenching can occur without destroying the stellar disk.

    Accelerated quenching and chemical enhancement of massive galaxies in a z ≈ 4 gas-rich halo
    (Nature Astronomy, 2025-07-21) Pérez-González, Pablo G.; D'Eugenio, Francesco; Rodriguez Del Pino, Bruno; Perna, Michele; Übler, Hannah; Maiolino, Roberto; Arribas, Santiago; Cresci, Giovanni; Lamperti, Isabella; Bunker, Andrew J.; Carniani, Stefano; Willott, Chris J.; Böker, Torsten; Parlanti, Eleonora; Scholtz, Jan; Venturi, Giacomo; Barro, Guillermo; Costantin, Luca; Martin-Navarro, Ignacio; Dunlop, James S.; Magee, Daniel; Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (MICINN); Agencia Estatal de Investigación (España); European Commission; Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC); European Research Council (ERC); Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF); Fundación La Caixa
    Stars in galaxies form when baryons radiatively cool down and fall into gravitational wells whose mass is dominated by dark matter. Eventually, star formation quenches as gas is depleted and/or perturbed by feedback processes, no longer being able to collapse and condense. We report the first spatially resolved spectroscopic observations, using the JWST/NIRSpec IFU, of a massive, completely quiescent galaxy (Jekyll) and its neighborhood at $z=3.714$, when the Universe age was 10% of today's. Jekyll resides in a massive dark matter halo (with mass M$_\mathrm{DM}>10^{12}$ M$_\odot$) and forms a galaxy pair with Hyde, which shows very intense dust-enshrouded star formation (star formation rate $\sim300$ M$_\odot$yr$^{-1}$). We find large amounts of kinematically perturbed ionized and neutral gas in the circumgalactic medium around the pair. Despite this large gas reservoir, Jekyll, which formed $10^{11}$ M$_\odot$ in stars and chemically enriched early (first billion years of the Universe) and quickly (200-300 Myr), has remained quiescent for over 500 Myr. The properties of the gas found around the two galaxies are consistent with intense, AGN-induced photoionization, or intense shocks. However, with the current data no obscured or unobscured AGN is detected in the central galaxy (Jekyll) nor in the very active and dust rich star-forming galaxy (Hyde).
