Boroson3 & R. Jimenez1. 1Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh, Blackford Hill, Edinburgh, EH9 3HJ 2INOAE, Apartado Postal 51 y 216, 72000, Puebla, Pue., Mexico. 3NOAO, PO Box 26732, Tucson, Arizona 85726−6732, U.S.A. Submitted for publication in MNRAS ABSTRACT We present the results of fitting deep off-nuclear optical spectra of radio-quiet quasars, radio-loud quasars and radio galaxies at z ≃ 0.2 with evolutionary synthesis models of galaxy evolution. Our aim was to determine the age of the dynamically dominant stellar populations in the host galaxies of these three classes of powerful AGN. Some of our spectra display residual nuclear contamination at the shortest wavelengths, but the detailed quality of the fits longward of the 4000A˚ break provide unequivocal proof, if further proof were needed, that quasars lie in massive galaxies with (at least at z ≃ 0.2) evolved stellar populations. By fitting a two-component model we have separated the very blue (starburst and/or AGN contamination) from the redder underlying spectral energy distribution, and find that the hosts of all three classes of AGN are dominated by old stars of age 8 − 14 Gyr. If the blue component is attributed to young stars, we find that, at most, 1% of the visible baryonic mass of these galaxies is involved in star-formation activity at the epoch of observation, at least over the region sampled by our spectroscopic observations.

  • Observational Evidence for the Most Massive Stars
    Paper for ASTR 8100 Class King of the Stellar Heap - Observational Evidence for the Most Massive Stars Ben Team1 Department of Physics and Astronomy, Georgia State University, Atlanta, GA 30303 ABSTRACT This is a brief analysis of the observational evidence for the upper mass limit for stellar objects. Current observational information suggests that this limit is approximately 150M (Kroupa & Weidner 2005). Several of the most massive stars are described in terms of observational characteristics and the difficulties encountered in trying to determine the upper mass limit for stars. Subject headings: Stellar UML, Pistol Star 1. Introduction When children are introduced to new ideas, often they ask many simplistic, yet critical questions trying to identify the boundaries of the new idea based on their existing knowledge base. Questions like “What is the largest?”, “What is the smallest?”, or “What is the fastest?” are often asked. Answers to these simple questions often have implications far beyond just the simple answers. This paper will explore the answer to one such simple question. What is the upper mass limit (UML) of a star? There are two methods of answering this question. The first is to define the limit based on theoretical modeling of the physics of stellar formation using detailed knowledge of these processes. Alternatively, the limit may be identified by observations of stellar populations, which is the methodology utilized herein. Stellar population inventories will likely never be able to completely identify the precise UML of all stars, but with enough samples, the limit can be statistically identified. To 1Graduate Student, Astronomy Program, Georgia State University, Atlanta, GA 30303 – 2 – this end, a few published stellar surveys will be examined to provide observational evidence for this limit.
