Quenching through Tidal Gas Removal: Molecular Gas and Star Formation in Tidal Tails of z ∼ 0.7 Post-starburst Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The active suppression of star formation in galaxies is critical for preventing the growth of overly massive systems and explaining the formation of present-day elliptical galaxies.

Star-forming compact groups: Tracing the early evolutionary stages of compact group environments

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. In the context of pre-processing – a scenario where galaxies quench their star formation within substructures before falling into clusters – we investigate the impact of environment on the physical and morphological properties of galaxies in ...

Secondary evolution of galaxies investigated by N-body simulations

open access: yes, 2008
In the ΛCDM cosmology, merging is one of the most important physical processes that drives the formation and evolution of galaxies. In the present work, we use N-body techniques to investigate some of currently open issues related to the formation and ...

266 E+A galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 2: the origin of E+A galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2005
E+A galaxies are characterized as a galaxy with strong Balmer absorption lines but without any [OII] nor H$α$ emission lines. The existence of strong Balmer absorption lines indicates that E+A galaxies have experienced starburst within recent one Gyr.

Combined Fit of Spectrum and Composition for FR0 Radio-galaxy-emitted Ultra–high energy Cosmic Rays with Resulting Secondary Photons and Neutrinos

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This study comprehensively investigates the gamma-ray dim population of Fanaroff–Riley Type 0 (FR0) radio galaxies as potentially significant sources of ultra–high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs, E > 10 ^18 eV) detected on Earth.

Spatially resolved spectroscopy of faint star-forming galaxies & their environments in the high redshift universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis is concerned with the spectroscopic observations of distant galaxies, 1 < z < 5. The galaxies presented here are intrinsically faint such that their ux is dominated by ordinary star formation rather than galaxy-galaxy merging and/or ...

An automated polarimeter and its use in the study of active galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
In this thesis I present the design and development of an automated polarimeter for use in mapping the percentage levels and position angles of linearly polarized light from extended astronomical objects.

The AURORA Survey: Tracing Galactic Outflows at z ≳ 2.5 with JWST/NIRSpec Near-ultraviolet Absorption Lines

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We probe galactic-scale outflows in star-forming galaxies at z  ≳ 2.5 drawn from the JWST/NIRSpec AURORA program. For the first time, we directly compare outflow properties from the early Universe to the present day using near-UV absorption lines.

X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies at z > 0.3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This thesis presents optical CCD imaging taken as part of the follow-up programme to the Massive Cluster Survey, a ROSAT All-Sky Survey based cluster survey aiming to discover X-ray luminous galaxy clusters at redshifts above 0.3.
