AstroSat UVIT Survey of M31: New Compact Source Catalog

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
An ultraviolet survey of M31 was carried out during 2017–2023 with the UltraViolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) instrument on board the AstroSat Observatory. Here we present far- and near-ultraviolet (FUV and NUV) observations from the M31 UVIT survey, which

The Hubble Space Telescope Survey of M31 Satellite Galaxies. IV. Survey Overview and Lifetime Star Formation Histories

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
From >1000 orbits of HST imaging, we present deep homogeneous resolved star color–magnitude diagrams that reach the oldest main-sequence turnoff and uniformly measured star formation histories (SFHs) of 36 dwarf galaxies (−6 ≥ M _V ≥ −17) associated with

Fermi bubbles around the M31 galaxy

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
We have searched for an extended high-energy gamma-ray emission around the nearby giant spiral Andromeda galaxy M31 using almost 7 years of Fermi LAT data at energies above 300 MeV.

HST Proper Motion of Andromeda III. Another Satellite Coorbiting the M31 Satellite Plane

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We measure the absolute proper motion of Andromeda III (And III) using Advanced Camera for Surveys/Wide Field Channel and WFPC2 exposures spanning an unprecedented 22 yr time baseline.

Andromeda galaxy vs Milky Way galaxy

open access: yesCommunications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory
Some physical features of the Andromeda galaxy are compared with their counterparts in the Milky Way to demonstrate that the Andromeda galaxy has traversed a longer evolutionary path. One of the evolutionary dependents in galaxies is the metallicity factor. The metallicity radial gradient in galaxies can also be used for this purpose.

The Molecular Clouds of M31

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Deep interferometric observations of CO and dust continuum emission are obtained with the Submillimeter Array at 230 GHz to investigate the physical nature of the giant molecular cloud (GMC) population in the Andromeda galaxy (M31).

The Spectroscopic and Photometric Study of a Star Cluster Sample in Andromeda Halo

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Halo star clusters serve as vital tracers for the formation and evolution of the Andromeda galaxy. In this work, we present physical parameters for 29 M31 halo star clusters, derived from a combination of spectroscopic and photometric data.

Globular Clusters in the Andromeda Galaxy

open access: yes, 2001
Chapters 2, 3 and 4 were published before the thesis was submitted. Chapter 5 was published as two papers, after the thesis was submitted.

Nature or Nurture: LMC-like Dust in the Solar Metallicity Galaxy M31

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using the Hubble Space Telescope/Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph, ultraviolet (UV) extinction curves have been measured in M31 along 13 new sight lines, increasing the M31 sample to 17.
