The Physical Thickness of Stellar Disks to z ∼ 2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In local disk galaxies such as our Milky Way, older stars generally inhabit a thicker disk than their younger counterparts. Two competing models have attempted to explain this result: one in which stars first form in thin disks that gradually thicken ...

Detection of a Star Forming Galaxy in the Center of a Low-Mass Galaxy Cluster

open access: yes, 2018
Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) residing in the centers of galaxy clusters are typically quenched giant ellipticals. A recent study hinted that star-forming galaxies with large disks, so-called superluminous spirals and lenticulars, are the BCGs of a ...

The Relative Orientation of Nuclear Accretion and Galaxy Stellar Disks in Seyfert Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We use the difference (delta) between the position angles of the nuclear radio emission and the host galaxy major axis to investigate the distribution of the angle (beta) between the axes of the nuclear accretion disk and the host galaxy disk in Seyfert ...

DUST-DRIVEN WIND FROM DISK GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We study gaseous outflows from disc galaxies driven by radiation pressure on dust grains. We include the effect of bulge and dark matter halo and show that the existence of such an outflow implies a maximum value of disc mass-to-light ratio. We show that the terminal wind speed is proportional to the disc rotation speed in the limit of a cold gaseous ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Stellar CoRGI in MaNGA: Stellar Counterrotating Galaxies Identified in the MaNGA Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
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 ...

An Extended Krylov Subspace Method for Decoding Edge‐Based Compressed Images by Homogeneous Diffusion

open access: yesNumerical Linear Algebra with Applications, Volume 33, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The heat equation is often used to inpaint dropped data in inpainting‐based lossy compression schemes. We propose an alternative way to numerically solve the heat equation by an extended Krylov subspace method. The method is very efficient with respect to the computation of the solution of the heat equation at large times.

Formation of Galactic Disks. I. Why Did the Milky Way’s Disk Form Unusually Early?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
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.

Enhanced dust heating in the bulges of early-type spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Stellar density and bar strength should affect the temperatures of the cool (T ~ 20–30 K) dust component in the inner regions of galaxies, which implies that the ratio of temperatures in the circumnuclear regions to the disk should depend on Hubble type.
