The Spatial Distribution of Type Ia Supernovae within Host Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We study how type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are spatially distributed within their host galaxies, using data taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Spiral structure of disk galaxies and hidden mass effect

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений. Поволжский регион: Физико-математические науки
Background. A theory of disk galaxies with a violation of cylindrical symmetry is being constructed, which solves the problem of the spiral structure of galaxies within the framework of a general density wave model. Materials and methods.

Can We Discover Physical Models Using Machine Learning? A Case Study of Galaxy Sizes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We explore the ability of machine learning methods to discover underlying equations of physics by searching for the equations governing galaxy size in a semianalytic model. This case study allows us to evaluate the process as we know the ground truth. We

The Dependency of Bar Formation Timescale on Disk Mass Fraction, Toomre Q, and Scale Height

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Bars are one of the most prominent galactic structures. The classical swing-amplification theory can qualitatively describe the spontaneous bar instability of stellar disks.

Illuminating the Incidence of Extraplanar Dust Using Ultraviolet Reflection Nebulae with GALEX

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Circumgalactic dust grains trace the circulation of mass and metals between star-forming regions and gaseous galactic halos, giving insight into feedback and tidal stripping processes.

The impact of radial migration on disk galaxy star formation histories

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Reconstructing the star formation history (SFH) of disk galaxies is central to understanding their growth and evolution, yet such estimates can be strongly biased by stellar radial migration over cosmic time.

ALMA FACTS. II. Large Scale Variations in the 12CO(J = 2 – 1) to 12CO(J = 1 – 0) Line Ratio in Nearby Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present ^12 CO( J  = 1 – 0) mapping observations over ∼1/2 of the optical disk of 12 nearby galaxies from the Fundamental CO 1–0 Transition Survey of nearby galaxies (FACTS), using the ALMA Total Power array. Variations in the ^12 CO( J  = 2 − 1)/ ^12

The Link between Galaxy Structure Properties and Star Formation in Local Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
To investigate the role of morphology in galaxy evolution, we analyze the relationships between galaxy structure, star formation, and H i gas content.

High-redshift Merger-induced Bar-like Galaxies in IllustrisTNG

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent discoveries made with JWST observations include a significant number of barred galaxies at high redshift. Their origin remains unclear, and their presence seems difficult to reproduce in cosmological simulations of galaxy formation and evolution ...
