Simulating molecular cloud regulated star formation in Galaxies [PDF]
, 2007 This thesis is primarily concerned with understanding the process of galaxy formation via the simulation of the interstellar medium, star formation and supernova feedback.

DiskScissors: Cutting Arbitrary‐Topology Solids for Bijective Mapping
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract An algorithm for cutting solid objects in a topology‐controlled manner is presented. Concretely, given a loop on the object boundary, a disk‐topology cut surface bounded by the loop is constructed in the interior. In contrast to various previous approaches, both disk topology and conformance to the prescribed loop are ensured by construction ...

Disk Galaxies at High Redshift? [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007 AbstractThe successful implementation of integral field near-infrared spectrographs fed by adaptive optics is providing unprecedented views of gas motions within galaxies at redshifts z = 2 − 3, when the universe was forming stars at its peak rate. A complex picture of galaxy kinematics is emerging, with inflows, rotation within sometimes extended and ...

INTERLOCKING RESONANCE PATTERNS IN GALAXY DISKS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2013 We have developed a method for finding dynamical resonances in disk galaxies using the change in sense of the radial component of the in-plane velocity at a resonance radius. Using simulations we show that we would expect to find these changes at corotation radii, with a weaker effect at the ILR and a small effect at the OLR. The method works well with

Star clusters in unperturbed spiral galaxies [PDF]
, 2008 Stars do not form in isolation, they form in groups known as star clusters. Star clusters are seen in a wide range of galaxies and environments. Their presence reveals the history of the host galaxy and the processes of its star formation.

Scalable Computation of Topological Abstractions for Scalar Data
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Topological data analysis has become an important tool for large scale scalar data analysis and visualization, efficiently extracting the inherent structure and features of interest of the data. However, with growing dataset sizes and complexity, it is increasingly becoming infeasible to compute topological abstractions of interest in serial ...

Mapping the dynamics, star-formation rates, and chemical properties of galaxies with integral field spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2005 Major advances in the development of instruments for eight and ten meter class telescopes are revolutionising our understanding of galaxy formation. In particular, Integral Field Spectrographs (which produce a three dimensional {x, y, velocity) map of a ...

Nonlinear Density Wave Theory in a Gaseous Disk
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 A nonlinear solution for the gaseous component of a galactic disk has been derived self-consistently using fluid description and reductive perturbation theory. We show that gas follows a spiral pattern, similarly to the stellar component; but the spirals

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Amorphous carbon (αC) is found in various extraterrestrial particles, including those thought to originate from the outer Solar System. αC can form through two main processes involving C‐rich materials: exposure to energetic charged particles and thermal processing.
