Luis at the IAU 396
The IAU Symposium #396 "Massive Galaxies across the Universe" was held from 9 to 13 June 2025 in Naples (Italy). The aim of this international conference was to bring together observers and theorists to discuss the formation and cosmic evolution of the most massive galaxies in the Universe, focusing on their mass and luminous structure, stellar populations, and the environments in which they live. Luis presented how J-PAS can contribute on this topic, as well as some of the current results and potential stellar population studies.
Title: Formation and evolution of the stellar content of massive galaxies in the J-PAS era
Abstract: As many people know, the J-PAS observations started recently and Luis introduced the methodologies and first results that we are obtaining for the stellar content of galaxies using this dataset, putting emphasis on the case for the most massive galaxies. For instance, Luis illustrated that, with the current J-PAS data, we find consistent results with a precision equivalent to that obtained for spectroscopic surveys of similar signal-to-noise ratio and that we can explore the integrated properties of the stellar content of J-PAS-like galaxies since z~1as a function of environment. It is also of note that Luis showed preliminar results about the potential of J-PAS for constraining the IMF of massive galaxies using his SED-fitting code MUFFIT.
