The O3N2 and N2 abundance indicators revisited: improved calibrations based on CALIFA and T e-based literature data

TL;DR: In this paper, the most widely used empirical oxygen calibrations, O3N2 and N2, by using new direct abundance measurements are reviewed, and the expected uncertainty of these calibrations as a function of the index value or abundance derived is analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A characteristic oxygen abundance gradient in galaxy disks unveiled with CALIFA

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the largest and most homogeneous catalog of H ii regions and associations compiled so far, consisting of more than 7000 ionized regions, extracted from 306 galaxies observed by the CALIFA survey.
Journal ArticleDOI

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Instrument specification and target selection

Julia J. Bryant, +67 more
TL;DR: The SAMI Galaxy Survey as discussed by the authors is a 3-year survey of 3400 galaxies with the Sydney-AAO Multi-Object Integral Field Spectrograph (SAMI) on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT).
Journal ArticleDOI

CALIFA : a diameter-selected sample for an integral field spectroscopy galaxy survey

C. J. Walcher, +60 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the selection procedure and statistical properties of the galaxy sample used by the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) survey, a public legacy survey of 600 galaxies using integral field spectroscopy.
