This paper presents the analysis of optical integral field spectra for the HI eXtreme (HIX) galaxy sample. HIX galaxies host at least 2.5 times more atomic gas (HI) than expected from their optical R-band luminosity. Previous examination of…

NGC 891 is a nearby edge-on galaxy that is similar to the Milky Way and has a hot X-ray emitting halo that could arise from accretion, a galactic fountain, or a combination of the two. The metallicity of the gas can help distinguish between…

(Abridged) We analyzed the stellar parameters and radial velocities of ~1200 stars in five bulge fields as determined from the Gaia-ESO survey data (iDR1). We use VISTA Variables in The Via Lactea (VVV) photometry to obtain reddening values…

We present a spatially resolved study of the relation between dust and metallicity in the nearby spiral galaxies M101 (NGC 5457) and NGC 628 (M74). We explore the relation between the chemical abundances of their gas and stars with their…

We derive a new relation between the metallicity of Seyfert 2 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) and the intensity of the narrow emission-lines ratio $N2O2$=log([N II]$\lambda$6584/[O II]$\lambda$3727). The calibration of this relation was…

We report metallicities for three $\sim$Gyr-old stars in the Milky Way nuclear star cluster (NSC) using high-resolution near-infrared spectroscopy. We derive effective temperatures from a calibration with Sc line strength, which yields…

By using bidimensional spectral data obtained at the 6m telescope for the Virgo spirals NGC 4216 and NGC 4501, we have found chemically distinct metal-rich nuclei in these galaxies. Under the assumption of equal ages for the nuclear and…

Galaxies are surrounded by halos of hot gas whose mass and origin remain unknown. One of the most challenging properties to measure is the metallicity, which constrains both of these. We present a measurement of the metallicity around NGC…

We used the multifiber spectrograph FLAMES on the ESO Very Large Telescope UT2 to derive atmospheric parameters, metallicities and abundances of O and Na for 79 red giant stars in the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6218 (M 12). We analyzed…

A tight positive correlation between the stellar mass and the gas-phase metallicity of galaxies has been observed at low redshifts. The redshift evolution of this correlation can strongly constrain theories of galaxy evolution. The advent…

We present metallicity gradients in 49 local field star-forming galaxies. We derive gas-phase oxygen abundances using two widely adopted metallicity calibrations based on the [OIII]/Hbeta, [NII]/Halpha and [NII]/[OII] line ratios. The two…

We present a study of the mass-metallicity (M-Z) relation and H II region physical conditions in a sample of 20 star-forming galaxies at 1.0<z<1.5 drawn from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey. Our analysis indicates that the zero point of…

The relatively red wavelength range (4800-9300{\AA}) of the VLT Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) limits which metallicity diagnostics can be used; in particular excluding those requiring the [O ii]{\lambda}{\lambda}3726,29 doublet.…

We exploit the unprecedented depth of integral field data from the KMOS Ultra-deep Rotational Velocity Survey (KURVS) to analyse the strong (H$\alpha$) and forbidden ([NII], [SII]) emission line ratios in 22 main-sequence galaxies at…

We present a sample of 86,111 star-forming galaxies (SFGs) selected from the catalogue of the MPA-JHU emission-line measurements for SDSS DR7 to investigate the evolution of mass-metallicity (MZ) relation. We find that: under the $\rm…

Using Chandra X-ray data of a sample of 15 X-ray bright galaxy groups, we present preliminary results of a coherent study of the radial distribution of metal abundances in the hot gas in groups. The iron content in group outskirts is found…

We present new accurate measurements of the physical properties of a statistically significant sample of 103 galaxies at z~2 using near-infrared spectroscopy taken as part of the 3D-HST survey. We derive redshifts, metallicities and star…

We investigate the environmental dependence of the mass-metallicity relation at z=2 with MOSFIRE/Keck as part of the ZFIRE survey. Here, we present the chemical abundance of a Virgo-like progenitor at z=2.095 that has an established red…

One of the primary outstanding questions in extragalactic astronomy is the formation and early evolution of the supermassive black holes that are seen in nearly every massive galaxy. Low metallicity dwarf galaxies may offer the most…

We investigate the relationship between stellar mass, metallicity and gas content for a magnitude- and volume-limited sample of 260 nearby late-type galaxies in different environments, from isolated galaxies to Virgo cluster members. We…
