Quenching of Massive Disk Galaxies in the IllustrisTNG Simulation

open access: yesThe 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.

Are Disks of Satellites Comprised of Tidal Dwarf Galaxies?

open access: yesGalaxies, 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 ...

Estimating the Oblateness of Dark Matter Halos Using Neutral Hydrogen Velocity Dispersion

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Disk Galaxies Are Self-similar: The Universality of the H i-to-Halo Mass Ratio for Isolated Disks

open access: yesThe 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]

open access: yes, 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 access: yesOpen 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.

On the Decline of Star Formation during the Evolution of Galaxies

open access: yesThe 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

Galactic Disk Warps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
This review addresses recent developments in the field of disk galaxy warps. Both results from a new HI survey of edgeon disk galaxies, and of simulations of the interaction between a disk+halo and an orbiting satelite, will be discussed.Comment: paper ...

General Physical Properties of Gamma-Ray-emitting Radio Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We study the radio galaxies with known redshifts detected by the Fermi satellite after 10 yr of data (4FGL-DR2). We use a one-zone leptonic model to fit the quasi-simultaneous multiwavelength data of these radio galaxies and study the distributions of ...

Relation Between the Thickness of Stellar Disks and the Relative Mass of Dark Halo in Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We consider a thickness of stellar disks of late-type galaxies by analyzing the R and K_s band photometric profiles for two independent samples of edge-on galaxies.
