NGC 7582 is defined as a Starburst/AGN galaxy, since its optical and X-Ray spectra reveal both characteristics. In this work, we show the results of a stellar population modeling in a datacube taken with the Gemini South telescope. We found that $sim$ 90% of the light in the field of view is emitted by stars that are less than 1 billion years old. A strong burst occurred about $sim$ 6 million years ago and has nearly solar metallicity. We also found a Wolf-Rayet cluster.

NGC 7582 was identified as a Starburst galaxy in the optical cite[(Veron et al. 1981)]{Veron et al.(1981)} but its X-Ray emission is typical of a Seyfert 1 galaxy cite[(Ward et al. 1978)]{Ward et al.(1978)}. We analyzed a datacube of this object obta
ined with the GMOS-IFU on the Gemini-South telescope. After a subtraction of the stellar component using the {sc starlight} code cite[(Cid Fernandes et al. 2005)]{Cid Fernandes et al. (2005)}, we looked for optical signatures of the AGN. We detected a broad $Halpha$ component (figure ref{fig1}) in the source where cite[Bianchi et al.(2007)]{Bianchi et al.(2007)} identified the AGN in an HST optical image. We also found a broad $Hbeta$ feature (figure ref{fig2}), but its emission reveals a extended source. We suggest that it is the light of the AGN scattered in the ionization cone. We propose that NGC 7582 is a Seyfert 1 galaxy. A number of other hot-spots and Wolf-Rayet features were also identified.
Tracing the star formation history in circumnuclear regions (CNRs) is a key step towards understanding the starburst-AGN connection. However, bright nuclei outshining the entire host galaxy prevent the analysis of the stellar populations of CNRs arou
nd type-I AGNs. Obscuration of the nuclei by the central torus provides an unique opportunity to study the stellar populations of AGN host galaxies. We assemble a sample of 10, 848 type-II AGNs with a redshift range of $0.03le zle 0.08$ from the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys Data Release 4, and measure the mean specific star formation rates (SSFRs) over the past 100Myr in the central $sim1-2$ kpc . We find a tight correlation between the Eddington ratio ($lambda$) of the central black hole (BH) and the mean SSFR, strongly implying that supernova explosions (SNexp) play a role in the transportation of gas to galactic centers. We outline a model for this connection by accounting for the role of SNexp in the dynamics of CNRs. In our model, the viscosity of turbulence excited by SNexp is enhanced, and thus angular momentum can be efficiently transported, driving inflows towards galactic centers. Our model explains the observed relation $lambda propto rm SSFR^{1.5-2.0}$, suggesting that AGN are triggered by SNexp in CNRs.
The mass of super massive black holes at the centre of galaxies is tightly correlated with the mass of the galaxy bulges which host them. This observed correlation implies a mechanism of joint growth, but the precise physical processes responsible ar
e a matter of some debate. Here we report on the growth of black holes in 400 local galactic bulges which have experienced a strong burst of star formation in the past 600Myr. The black holes in our sample have typical masses of 10^6.5-10^7.5 solar masses, and the active nuclei have bolometric luminosities of order 10^42-10^44erg/s. We combine stellar continuum indices with H-alpha luminosities to measure a decay timescale of ~300Myr for the decline in star formation after a starburst. During the first 600Myr after a starburst, the black holes in our sample increase their mass by on-average 5% and the total mass of stars formed is about 1000 times the total mass accreted onto the black hole. This ratio is similar to the ratio of stellar to black hole mass observed in present-day bulges. We find that the average rate of accretion of matter onto the black hole rises steeply roughly 250Myr after the onset of the starburst. We show that our results are consistent with a simple model in which 0.5% of the mass lost by intermediate mass stars in the bulge is accreted by the black hole, but with a suppression in the efficiency of black hole growth at early times plausibly caused by supernova feedback, which is stronger at earlier times. We suggest this picture may be more generally applicable to black hole growth, and could help explain the strong correlation between bulge and black hole mass.
We present the first 3D spectroscopic observations of a nearby HI detected poststarburst, or E+A, galaxy, SDSS J230743.41+152558.4, obtained with the VIMOS IFU spectrograph at ESO VLT. Using the NBursts full spectral fitting technique, we derive maps
of stellar kinematics, age, and metallicity out to 2-3 half-light radii. Our analysis reveals a large-scale rapidly rotating disc (v_circ = 300km/s) with a positive age gradient (0.6 to 1.5 Gyr), and a very metal-rich central region ([Fe/H]=+0.25 dex). If a merger or interaction is responsible for triggering the starburst, the presence of this undisturbed disc suggests a minor merger with a gas-rich satellite as the most plausible option, rather than a disruptive major merger. We find spectroscopic evidence for the presence of a LINER or AGN. This is an important clue to the feedback mechanism that truncated the starburst. The presently observed quiescent phase may well be a temporary episode in the galaxys life. SDSS J230743.41+152558.4 is gas-rich and may restart forming stars, again becoming blue before finally settling at the red sequence.
We report the results of spectroscopic observations, obtained with the Gemini North Multi-Object Spectrograph, of 9 planetary nebulae (PNe) and 15 hii regions located in the 5.5arcmin $times$5.5arcmin inner region of the nearby starburst galaxy IC10.
Twelve new candidate PNe have been discovered during our pre-imaging phase. Nine of them have been spectroscopically confirmed. The direct availability of the electron temperature diagnostics in several nebulae allowed an accurate determination of the metallicity map of IC10 at two epochs: the present-time from hii regions and the old/intermediate-age from PNe. We found a non-homogeneous distribution of metals at both epochs, but similar average abundances were found for the two populations. The derived age-metallicity relation shows a little global enrichment interpreted as the loss of metals by SN winds and to differential gas outflows. Finally, we analyzed the production of oxygen --through the third dredge-up-- in the chemical abundance patterns of the PN populations belonging to several dwarf irregular galaxies. We found that the third dredge-up of oxygen is a metallicity dependent phenomenon occurring mainly for 12+$log$(O/H)$leq$7.7 and substantially absent in IC10 PNe.
