The evolution of the mass-metallicity relation in SDSS galaxies uncovered by astropaleontology

TL;DR: The mass-metallicity (M-Z) relation at different lookback times for the same set of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, using the stellar metallicities estimated with the spectral synthesis code STARLIGHT, was obtained in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

An analysis of the composite stellar population in M32

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained long-slit spectra of the galaxy M32 with the GMOS spectrograph at the GEMINI North telescope, and analyzed the integrated spectra by means of full spectral fitting in order to extract the mixture of stellar populations that best represents its composite nature.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Obscuring Starburst of NGC 6221 and Implications for the Hard X-Ray Background

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented NGC 6221 as a case study of X-ray-loud composite galaxies, which appear similar to starbursts at optical wavelengths and resemble traditional active galactic nuclei in X-rays.
Journal ArticleDOI

Qualitative interpretation of galaxy spectra

TL;DR: In this article, a step-by-step guide to qualitative interpretation of galaxy spectra is described, and a description of the properties of the gas and the stars that characterize the ASK classes, from those corresponding to passively evolving galaxies, to HII galaxies undergoing a galaxywide starburst.
