Astrophysical tests of modified gravity: the morphology and kinematics of dwarf galaxies [PDF]
This paper is the third in a series on tests of gravity using observations of stars and nearby dwarf galaxies. We carry out four distinct tests using published data on the kinematics and morphology of dwarf galaxies, motivated by the theoretical work of Hui et al. (2009) and Jain and Vanderplas (2011). In a wide class of gravity theories a scalar field

Stability of disk-like galaxies--Part I: Stability via reduction [PDF]
We prove the existence and stability of flat steady states of the Vlasov-Poisson system, which in astrophysics are used as models of disk-like galaxies.

Abstract In this study, the properties, equilibrium, and stability of compact objects within the framework of teleparallel gravity with the generalized MIT bag model are investigated. By incorporating the modified field equations, the influence of the generalized bag constant on the structure and physical characteristics of quark stars and neutron ...

Observations of Lenticular Galaxies at the 6-m Telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory [PDF]
This is a historical review covering the last 30 years of the observational study of lenticular galaxies at the 6m telescope BTA of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The development of spectroscopic techniques at the BTA has allowed to get comprehensive information about this class of stellar systems, starting ...

The astrophysical consequences of intervening galaxy gas on fast radio bursts [PDF]
We adopt and analyze results on the incidence and physical properties of damped Ly$ $ systems (DLAs) to predict the astrophysical impact of gas in galaxies on observations of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). Three DLA measures form the basis of this analysis: (i) the HI column density distribution, parameterized as a double power-law; (ii) the incidence of ...

Tracing the Mass-Assembly History of Galaxies with Deep Surveys
We use the optical and near-infrared galaxy samples from the Munich Near-Infrared Cluster Survey (MUNICS), the FORS Deep Field (FDF) and GOODS-S to probe the stellar mass assembly history of field galaxies out to z ~ 5.

Data Reduction and Correction of Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) Gamma‐Ray Spectrometer (KGRS)
Abstract The Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) Gamma‐Ray Spectrometer (KGRS) is Korea's first lunar surface resource exploration payload. GRS data include non‐scientific background information in addition to lunar observation information, so reduction and correction are necessary to analyze the lunar surface scientifically.

Simulations of stellar convection, pulsation and semiconvection [PDF]
We report on modelling in stellar astrophysics with the ANTARES code. First, we describe properties of turbulence in solar granulation as seen in high-resolution calculations.

Abstract A space‐borne radio‐frequency antenna is typically located in the vicinity of a conductive spacecraft body that influences its beam. Also, at wavelengths that greatly exceed the sizes of such an antenna and spacecraft, the antenna is expected to have the beam of an equivalent short dipole.
