Molecular hydrogen as dark mass in dwarf galaxies

open access: yes, 2004
We report here an example of a series of computer simulations of the formation of disk galaxies, including a standard cold dark matter component, gas, and star formation, which result in objects which closely resemble observed giant galaxies, with a ...

THE HIGH-EFFICIENCY JETS MAGNETICALLY ACCELERATED FROM A THIN DISK IN POWERFUL LOBE-DOMINATED FRII RADIO GALAXIES

open access: yes, 2014
A maximum jet efficiency line R similar to 25 (R = L-jet/L-bol), found in FRII radio galaxies by Fernandes et al., was extended to cover the full range of jet power by Punsly.

Rapid Bulge Assembly in Young Galaxy Disks at Cosmic Dawn

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Recent observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have begun to reveal a surprising morphological diversity in galaxies within the first billion years after the Big Bang, including indications of structural maturity previously thought to ...

A polarimetry study of starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Optical imaging polarimetry has been carried out for a number of starburst galaxies under various morphological classifications. In several cases, kpc-scale reflection nebulae are detected which arise from dust grains scattering starburst radiation ...

Measuring bulge and disk surface brightness in disk galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The analysis of the light distribution of galaxy is a crucial step in studying their structural components and therefore it plays a key role in understanding the processes that led to galaxy formation and evolution.

A Full Accounting of the Visible Mass in SDSS MaNGA Disk Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a study of the ratio of visible mass to total mass in spiral galaxies to better understand the relative amount of dark matter present in galaxies of different masses and evolutionary stages.

The First Quenched Galaxies: When and How?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Many quiescent galaxies discovered in the early Universe by JWST raise fundamental questions on when and how these galaxies became and stayed quenched. Making use of the latest version of the semianalytic model GAEA that provides good agreement with the ...

Rotating disk galaxies - Yet another case for dark matter

open access: yes, 1990
We devise a method to probe the systematic variations of the dark matter mass fraction (DM) in the optical region of disk galaxies, based on studying the correlation between galaxy luminosity and the normalized radius where the rotation frequency exceeds

Correlations among global photometric properties of disk galaxies

open access: yes, 2000
Using a two-dimensional galaxy image decomposition technique, we extract global bulge and disk parameters for a complete sample of early-type disk galaxies in the near-infrared K band.

Cluster versus Field: Clear Evidence for a Morphology–Density Relation in All Environments at z ∼ 1.6

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We explore the relationship between galaxy structure, stellar mass, and local galaxy density in three SpARCS clusters at z  ∼ 1.6 and compare with field galaxies from the 3D-HST survey.
