The evolution of the content of heavy elements in galaxies, the relative chemical
abundances, their spatial distribution, and how these scale with various galactic properties …

Abstract The Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) survey is
currently acquiring integral-field spectroscopy for the largest sample of galaxies to date. By …

Context. Measuring how the physical properties of galaxies change across cosmic times is
essential to understand galaxy formation and evolution. With the advent of numerous ground …

Deriving the expansion history of the Universe is a major goal of modern cosmology. To
date, the most accurate measurements have been obtained with Type Ia Supernovae (SNe) …

Broadband photometry of galaxies measures an unresolved mix of complex stellar
populations, gas, and dust. Interpreting these data is a challenge for models: many studies …

One of the most compelling tasks of modern cosmology is to constrain the expansion history
of the Universe, since this measurement can give insights on the nature of dark energy and …

We study the spatially resolved excitation properties of the ionized gas in a sample of 646
galaxies using integral field spectroscopy data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV Mapping …

We describe the automated spectral classification, redshift determination, and parameter
measurement pipeline in use for the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) of the …

We present a new model for computing the spectral evolution of stellar populations at ages
between 1× 105 and 2× 1010 yr at a resolution of 3 Å across the whole wavelength range …

We examine the properties of the host galaxies of 22 623 narrow-line active galactic nuclei
(AGN) with 0.02< z< 0.3 selected from a complete sample of 122 808 galaxies from the …
