Book ChapterDOI
CROMOS: A cryogenic near-infrared, multi-object spectrometer for the VLT
Reinhard Genzel,Reiner Hofmann,Daigo Tomono,Niranjan Thatte,Frank Eisenhauer,Matt Lehnert,Matthias Tecza,Ralf Bender +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-object near-infrared spectrometer is proposed for the VLT, which combines 20 to 40 integral eld units (IFUs), which can be positioned by a cryogenic robot over the entire unvignetted eld of the VLC (~7').
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A wavefront sensor for the Wendelstein Fraunhofer Telescope
Shaoming Hu,Frank Grupp,Florian Lang-Bardl,Ulrich Hopp,Ralf Bender,Wolfgang Mitsch,Claus Gössl +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHS) to optimize the alignment for a basically well aligned telescope system using Zernike coefficients derived from the reconstructed wavefront.
Journal ArticleDOI
Black holes in low-mass bulges and pseudobulges
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated whether the well-known relations between the mass of a central supermassive black hole and the mass or velocity dispersion of its surrounding bulge remain valid or how they change when galaxies with pseudobulges or low-mass bulges are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Witnessing the Early Growth and Life Cycle of Galaxies with KMOS3D
Natascha M. Förster Schreiber,David J. Wilman,Emily Wisnioski,Matteo Fossati,J. Trevor Mendel,Ralf Bender,Reinhard Genzel,Reinhard Genzel,Reinhard Genzel,Alessandra Beifiori,Sirio Belli,Gabe Brammer,Andreas Burkert,Jeffrey C. C. Chan,Richard Davies,Rebecca L. Davies,Maximilian Fabricius,Audrey Galametz,Rodrigo Herrera-Camus,Philipp Lang,Dieter Lutz,Ivelina Momcheva,Thorsten Naab,Erica J. Nelson,Sedona H. Price,Alvio Renzini,Roberto P. Saglia,Stella Seitz,Taro Shimizu,Amiel Sternberg,Linda J. Tacconi,Ken-ichi Tadaki,Hannah Übler,Pieter van Dokkum,Stijn Wuyts +34 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established the broad scope of the equilibrium growth model, in which accretion from the cosmic web and minor mergers fairly continuously replenish the gas reservoirs of SFGs, and the balance between accretion, star formation, and outflows governs their evolution.

Rotation Curves in z~1-2 Star-Forming Disks: Comparison of Dark Matter Fractions and Disk Properties for Different Fitting Methods
Sedona H. Price,Taro Shimizu,Reinhard Genzel,H. Übler,N. M. Förster Schreiber,Linda J. Tacconi,Richard Davies,R. Coogan,Dieter Lutz,Stijn Wuyts,Emily Wisnioski,A.

Schuster +24 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a follow-up analysis examining the dynamics and structures of 41 massive, large star-forming galaxies at z~0.67-2.45 using both ionized and molecular gas kinematics is presented.
