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

Simulating supernova feedback in galaxy disks [PDF]
In this thesis I examine supernova feedback in hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy disks. Understanding this process entails the numerical evaluation of cooling in radiative shocks, and we present a set of simulations using two widely used numerical ...

We present our new scheme for the classification of radial stellar surface brightness profiles for disk galaxies. We summarize the current theoretical attempts to understand their origin and give an example of an application by comparing local galaxies with their counterparts at high redshift (z~1).

A polarimetry study of starburst galaxies [PDF]
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 ...

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events
ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

Quantifying the Impact of Relativistic Precession on Tidal Disruption Event Light Curves
ABSTRACT The tidal field of a black hole can turn a star into a gas stream whose orbit can precess, especially if the a black hole is rapidly spinning. In this work, we investigate the impact of precession on the light curves of tidal disruption events (TDE).

The evolution of dark matter substructure [PDF]
This thesis investigates the dynamical evolution of systems orbiting within deeper potentials. Initially we use a simple satellite-halo interaction to study the dynamical processes that act on orbiting systems and we compare these results to analytical ...

Early-type disk galaxies [PDF]
In this thesis I investigate the dynamics and stellar populations of a sample of 28 edge-on early-type (S0--Sb) disk galaxies, 22 of which host a boxy or peanut-shaped bulge.

The Formation of Disk Galaxies [PDF]
In this talk, I will discuss a few particular topics, rather than attempting a general review of the formation of disk galaxies. First recall the basic structure and kinematics of a disk galaxy like the Milky Way. The Table below lists the four main structural components as they are presently understood, and gives typical masses, and (if known) the ...
