Quenching of Massive Disk Galaxies in the IllustrisTNG Simulation
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 A rare population of massive disk galaxies have been found to invade the red sequence dominated by early-type galaxies. The formation and origins of these red/quenched massive disk galaxies have recently gained great interest.

Estimating the Oblateness of Dark Matter Halos Using Neutral Hydrogen Velocity Dispersion
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We derive the oblateness parameter q of the dark matter halo of a sample of gas-rich, face-on disk galaxies. We have assumed that the halos are triaxial in shape but their axes in the disk plane ( a and b ) are equal, so that q = c / a measures the halo ...

Are Disks of Satellites Comprised of Tidal Dwarf Galaxies?
Galaxies, 2021 It was found that satellites of nearby galaxies can form flattened co-rotating structures called disks of satellites or planes of satellites. Their existence is not expected by the current galaxy formation simulations in the standard dark matter-based ...

Disk Galaxies Are Self-similar: The Universality of the H i-to-Halo Mass Ratio for Isolated Disks
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Observed scaling relations in galaxies between baryons and dark matter global properties are key to shed light on the process of galaxy formation and on the nature of dark matter.

A Morphological-type dependence in the mu_0-log(h) plane of Spiral galaxy disks [PDF]
, 2001 We present observational evidence for a galaxy `Type' dependence to the location of a spiral galaxy's disk parameters in the mu_0-log(h) (central disk surface-brightness - disk scale-length) plane.

Investigation of the halo effect in the evolution of a nonstationary disk of spiral galaxies
Open Astronomy, 2023 In this article, we consider the problem of the evolution of the disk subsystem of galaxies, taking into account their halos. The global structure of the disk of galaxies strongly depends on the mass and shape of the halo.

The Space Density of Extended Ultraviolet (XUV) Disks in the Local Universe and Implications for Gas Accretion on to Galaxies [PDF]
, 2011 We present results of the first unbiased search for extended UV (XUV)-disk galaxies undertaken to determine the space density of such galaxies. Our sample contains 561 local (0.001 < z < 0.05) galaxies that lie in the intersection of available GALEX deep

CDM, Feedback and the Hubble Sequence [PDF]
, 2002 We have performed TreeSPH simulations of galaxy formation in a standard LCDM cosmology, including effects of star formation, energetic stellar feedback processes and a meta-galactic UV field, and obtain a mix of disk, lenticular and elliptical galaxies ...

On the Decline of Star Formation during the Evolution of Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Cosmological simulations predict that during the evolution of galaxies, the specific star formation rate continuously decreases. In a previous study we showed that generally this is not caused by the galaxies running out of cold gas but rather a decrease
