Effects of tidal interactions in local galaxy groups

We use 129 elliptical and lenticular galaxies in galaxy groups from the ZENs survey to study tidal interactions in local galaxy groups. The groups are selected...MORE

The results will be published soon...

Effect of Photo-z on precision cosmology

We study the photo-z requirements needed for a tomographic weak lensing survey in order to measure the Dark Energy equation of state up to a precision of 1 per cent. In particular, ...MORE

The faint end slope of the z=5 Luminosity Function

We have used the HUDF and additional new data which increase the depth and area of the HUDF to construct the V-dropouts Luminosity Function,...MORE

The results will be published soon...

The search for First Light with JWST

We consider the feasibility of detecting Population III pair-instability supernovae (PISNe) at very high redshifts with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)...MORE
