AbstractWe present spatially resolved emission line studies of three nearby GRB and SN hosts with longslit and/or IFU observations. We compare the environment of the GRBs/SNe with those of other star-forming regions in the host galaxy and try to get informations on the progenitor from stellar population models and metallicities.

ABSTRACT Observed mass-to-light ratios (M/L) of metal-rich globular clusters (GCs) disagree with theoretical predictions. This discrepancy is of fundamental importance since stellar population models provide the stellar masses that underpin most of extragalactic astronomy, near and far. We have derived radial velocities for 1622 stars located in the centres of 59 Milky Way GCs – 12 of which have no previous kinematic information – using integral-field unit data from the WAGGS project. Using N-body models, we determine dynamical masses and M/LV for the studied clusters. Our sample includes NGC 6528 and NGC 6553, which extend the metallicity range of GCs with measured M/L up to [Fe/H] ∼ −0.1 dex. We find that metal-rich clusters have M/LV more than two times lower than what is predicted by simple stellar population models. This confirms that the discrepant M/L–[Fe/H] relation remains a serious concern. We explore how our findings relate to previous observations, and the potential causes for the divergence, which we conclude is most likely due to dynamical effects.

AbstractThe stellar phase of Thermally-Pulsating Asymptotic giant branch is the last major evolutionary stage of intermediate-mass stars which afterwards evolve into planetary nebulae. The TP-AGB phase is affected by mass-loss and instabilities which notoriously make its theoretical modelling uncertain. This review focuses on the effects such modelling has on stellar population models for galaxies, with particular focus on the high-z Universe where galaxies are young and contain a large number of short-living TP-AGB stars. I shall present the models, discuss how different prescriptions for the treatment of the TP-AGB affect the theoretical integrated spectral energy distribution and how these compare to galaxy data, and discuss implications for the PN nebulae luminosity function stemming from the various assumptions. Finally I shall discuss the inclusion of hot evolved stars on stellar population models and how they compare to data for old galaxies at our present time.

AbstractWe present a comprehensive set of new generation stellar population models of Lick absorption line indices, which for the first time include element abundance ratios different from solar. We computed the 21 Lick indices CN1, CN2, Ca4227, G4300, Fe4383, Ca4455, Fe4531, C24668, Hβ, Fe5015, Mg1, Mg2, Mgb, Fe5270, Fe5335, Fe5406, Fe5709, Fe5782, Na D, TiO1, and TiO2, in the wavelength range 4000 ≲ λ ≲ 6500 Å. Models are provided with: [α/Fe] = 0.0, 0.3, 0.5, [α/Ca] = -0.1, 0.0, 0.2, 0.5, and [α/N] = −0.5, 0.0; ages from 1 to 15 Gyr; total metallicities from 1/200 to 3.5 solar (-2.25 ≤ [Z/H] ≤ 0.67).

In this contribution we present the results of an Eulerian adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) hydrodynamical and N-body simulation in a ΛCDM cosmology. The simulation used was performed with the cosmological code MASCLET (Quilis et al. 2004). Galaxies have been identified in the simulation outputs by means of an adaptive friends of friends algorithm applied to the star particles. To give light to our virtual galaxies we have assigned a spectrum to each stellar particle using the MIUSCAT stellar population models (Vazdekis et al. 2012; Ricciardelli et al. 2012).
