Proton Acceleration with Relativistic Electromagnetic Shock [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 30, August 14, 2025.
New Ion Acceleration Mechanism! A novel cosmic‐ray proton acceleration mechanism is proposed, where relativistic electromagnetic shocks accelerate protons transversely. Hamiltonian analysis yields a scaling law linking the proton energy to the minimum longitudinal thickness of the shock.

Dwarf Galaxies in Voids: Dark Matter Halos and Gas Cooling [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2010
Galaxy surveys have shown that luminous galaxies are mainly distributed in large filaments and galaxy clusters. The remaining large volumes are virtually devoid of luminous galaxies.

Potential impact of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy on the formation of young O-rich stars [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The Milky Way underwent significant transformations in its early history, characterised by violent mergers and satellite galaxy accretion. However, recent observations reveal notable star formation events over the past 4 Gyr, likely triggered by ...

Formation of Transitional cE/UCD Galaxies through Massive/Dwarf Disc Galaxy Mergers

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
The dynamics of the merger of a dwarf disc galaxy with a massive spiral galaxy of the Milky Way type were studied in detail. The remnant of such interaction after numerous crossings of the satellite through the disc of the main galaxy was a compact ...

Dependence of stellar substructures in M31 type galaxy on satellite morphology in galaxy mergers [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2022
Stellar streams and shells are observed in halos of spiral galaxies. In this paper, we investigated the formation of these structures due to mergers between the host spiral galaxy and its dwarf satellite galaxies.

Formation of a Massive Lenticular Galaxy Under the Tidal Interaction with a Group of Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Based on the atomic-hydrogen (H i ) observations using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope, we present a detailed study of the gas-rich massive S0 galaxy NGC 1023 in a nearby galaxy group.

A spectroscopic study of the low redshift dwarf galaxy SDSS J134326.99+431118.7 to calculate star formation rate

open access: yesBibechana, 2021
We present a spectroscopic study of an interacting emission-line dwarf galaxy SDSS J134326.99+431118.7. We analyzed eight-strong emission lines of wavelength in a range of 3902.1Å to 6619.1Å.

A Nonrepeating Fast Radio Burst in a Dwarf Host Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the discovery of an as yet nonrepeating fast radio burst (FRB), FRB 20210117A, with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), as a part of the Commensal Real-time ASKAP Fast Transients Survey.

Two Candidates for Dual AGN in Dwarf-dwarf Galaxy Mergers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) are important for understanding galaxy-merger-triggered fueling of black holes and the hierarchical growth of structures.

Harassment Origin for Kinematic Substructures in Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have run high resolution N-body models simulating the encounter of a dwarf galaxy with a bright elliptical galaxy. The dwarf absorbs orbital angular momentum and shows counter-rotating features in the external regions of the galaxy.
