ABSTRACT Philosophers often characterize perception as image‐like. There is little agreement, however, about what constitutes an imagistic or iconic representation. This article identifies five signature properties of iconic representations endorsed in the philosophical and scientific literature: item‐richness, feature‐richness, spatiotemporal ...

Dynamics of Cosmic Neutrinos in Galaxies
The cosmic background of massive (about 1 eV rest-energy) neutrinos can be cooled to extremely low temperatures, reaching almost completely degenerated state. The Fermi velocity of the neutrinos becomes less than 100 km/s.

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

THE LOCAL GALAXY DENSITY AND THE BULGE-TO-DISK RATIO OF DISK GALAXIES
Relying on samples of disk galaxies for which a detailed photometric bulge/disk decomposition has been provided in the literature, we examine the dependence of the bulge-to-disk luminosity ratio (B/D) on the blue absolute luminosity and on the ...

Formation of Galactic Disks. I. Why Did the Milky Way’s Disk Form Unusually Early?
Recent results from spectroscopic and astrometric surveys of nearby stars suggest that the stellar disk of our Milky Way (MW) was formed quite early, within the first few billion years of its evolution.

Tracing the dynamical and structural complexity of spiral galaxy centres
Context. The formation and evolution of late-type galaxies have traditionally been described in terms of two pathways, one producing pressure-supported classical bulges and the other producing rotationally supported pseudo-bulges.

An infrared study of a sample of optically selected galaxies [PDF]
Infrared and optical photometry of a complete sub-sample of 194 galaxies in the Anglo-Australian Redshift Survey is presented. The Colour-Redshift diagrams are constructed and used, in a self-consistent manner, to reduce the data to zero-redshift colours

Edge-On Disk Galaxies in the SDSS DR6: Fractions of Bulgeless and Other Disk Galaxies
The aim of this study is to determine the fractions of different spiral galaxy types, especially bulgeless disks, from a complete and homogeneous sample of 15 127 edge-on disk galaxies extracted from the sixth data release from the Sloan Digital Sky ...

Stellar CoRGI in MaNGA: Stellar Counterrotating Galaxies Identified in the MaNGA Survey
Stellar counterrotating (CR) galaxies are systems hosting two large-scale stellar components rotating in opposite directions—a main, preexisting galaxy body with an older stellar population and a younger CR stellar disk likely formed from externally ...

The Edge-On Perspective of Bulgeless, Simple Disk Galaxies
This review focuses on flat and superthin galaxies. These are edge-on bulgeless galaxies, which are composed of a simple, stellar disk. The properties of these simple disks are at the end of a continuum that extends smoothly from bulge-dominated disk ...
