Molecular gas in galaxies of Hickson compact groups

We have observed 70 galaxies belonging to 45 Hickson compact groups in the CO(1→0) and CO(2→1) lines, in order to determine their molecular content. We detected 57 galaxies, corresponding to a detection rate of 81%. We compare the gas content relative to blue and LFIR luminosities of galaxies in compact groups with respect to other samples in the literature, including various environments and m...

Catalogue of Galaxies in Hickson Compact Groups . I . The Sample

We present Hα photometry for a sample of 95 galaxies in Hickson Compact Groups obtained from observations of 31 groups. The Catalogue lists isophotal and adaptive aperture (Kron aperture) flux measurements for about 75% of the accordant galaxies inside the observed HCGs, 22 out of which are upper limits. Non standard data reduction procedures have been used to obtain the continuum subtracted Hα...

The Ages and Metallicities of Galaxies in the Local Universe

We derive stellar metallicities, light-weighted ages and stellar masses for a magnitudelimited sample of 175,128 galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release Two (SDSS DR2). We compute median-likelihood estimates of these parameters using a large library of model spectra at medium-high resolution, covering a comprehensive range of star formation histories. The constraints we de...

Hickson Compact Groups: the Cores of Elongated Loose Groups

Evidence is presented which indicates that almost all HCGs are dynamically associated with generally elongated loose groups of galaxies, and are compact cores of the latter. Most of those loose groups, the direction of elongation of which lies at angles close to 45◦ with the line of sight, were revealed by previous investigations. Hence, HCGs have, probably, longer life-times than it has been d...

Compact Groups of Galaxies

Compact groups of galaxies have posed a number of challenging questions. Intensive observational and theoretical studies are now providing answers to many of these, and at the same time, are revealing unexpected new clues about the nature and role of these systems. Most compact groups contain a high fraction of galaxies having morphological or kinematical peculiarities, nuclear radio and infrar...
