The fundamental plane of dwarf irregular galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2008
Aims. Near-IR photometry of dwarf irregular galaxies (dIs) has been acquired to expand the sample of objects suitable for investigating the fundamental plane (FP) discovered previously by us. Data for blue compact dwarfs (BCDs), dwarf ellipticals (dEs), and dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are amalgamated to evaluate how closely these classes of ...

Maximum Mass Limit of Generalized MIT Compact Star: A Theoretical Study of Thin Shell Dynamics and Gravitational Lensing

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract In this study, the properties, equilibrium, and stability of compact objects within the framework of teleparallel gravity with the generalized MIT bag model are investigated. By incorporating the modified field equations, the influence of the generalized bag constant on the structure and physical characteristics of quark stars and neutron ...

The Isaac Newton Telescope Monitoring Survey of Local Group Dwarf Galaxies. V. The Star Formation History of Sagittarius Dwarf Irregular Galaxy Derived from Long-period Variable Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We conducted an optical monitoring survey of the Sagittarius dwarf irregular galaxy (SagDIG) during the period of 2016 June–2017 October, using the 2.5 m Isaac Newton Telescopeat La Palama.

Infrared Properties of Star-forming Dwarf Galaxies. I. Dwarf Irregular Galaxies in the Local Volume [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2005
A sample of 34 dwarf irregular galaxies in the Local Volume, most nearer than 5 Mpc, has been imaged in the near-infrared (NIR) in J and K_s at CFHT in Hawaii and OAN-SPM in Mexico. In CFHT images, stars brighter than M_Ks=-7.5 were resolved. In most cases, the resolved population represents less than 5% of the total NIR flux in K_s.

Leaf Anatomy and Photochemical Behaviour of Solanum lycopersicum L. Plants from Seeds Irradiated with Low‐LET Ionising Radiation

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Plants can be exposed to ionising radiation not only in Space but also on Earth, due to specific technological applications or after nuclear disasters. The response of plants to ionising radiation depends on radiation quality/quantity and/or plant characteristics. In this paper, we analyse some growth traits, leaf anatomy, and ecophysiological features

OLD GLOBULAR CLUSTERS IN MAGELLANIC-TYPE DWARF IRREGULAR GALAXIES

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2008
We present a study of the old globular clusters (GC) using archival F606W and F814W HST/ACS images of 19 Magellanic-type dwarf Irregular (dIrr) galaxies found in nearby (2 - 8 Mpc) associations of only dwarf galaxies. All dIrrs have absolute magnitudes fainter than or equal to the SMC (Mv = -16.2 mag).

Mass‐Loss, Composition and Observational Signatures of Stellar Winds From X‐Ray Bursts

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT X‐Ray bursts (XRBs) are powerful thermonuclear events on the surface of accreting neutron stars (NSs), which can synthesize intermediate‐mass elements. Although the high surface gravity prevents an explosive ejection, a small fraction of the envelope may be ejected by radiation‐driven winds.

Chemodynamical Simulations of Dwarf Galaxy Evolution

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
In this review I give a summary of the state of the art for what concerns the chemo‐dynamical numerical modelling of galaxies in general and of dwarf galaxies in particular. In particular, I focus my attention on (i) initial conditions, (ii) the equations to solve; (iii) the star formation process in galaxies, (iv) the initial mass function, (v) the ...
