The nature of early-type galaxies in hierarchical models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this Thesis we describe the properties of early-type galaxies in the context of hierarchical galaxy formation. We use two variants of the GALFORM model originally introduced by Cole et al.: the Baugh et al. and the Bower et al. models.

The Momentum of ‘Developed’: Bodies of Water, Aging Bodies and Malta's Interventions at the UN

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract Histories of major powers continue to shape how many scholars conceptualize internationalism. By focusing on Malta's interventions at the UN challenges, this article challenges such narrative. In particular, it examines Arvid Pardo's 1967 petition that the seabed be reconceived and protected as the ‘common heritage of mankind’ and Vincent ...

Mapping the dynamics, star-formation rates, and chemical properties of galaxies with integral field spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Major advances in the development of instruments for eight and ten meter class telescopes are revolutionising our understanding of galaxy formation. In particular, Integral Field Spectrographs (which produce a three dimensional {x, y, velocity) map of a ...

Longitudinal and cross‐sectional perspectives on elementary school children's post‐error slowing in reading and arithmetic

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the development of primary school children's error‐related adjustments in reading and arithmetic, both cross‐sectionally and longitudinally. Aims We aimed to uncover monitoring‐based cognitive control processes and often‐overlooked strategy use in academic tasks requiring a balancing of speed and accuracy ...

Isolated early-type galaxies

open access: yes, 2010
Isolated early-type galaxies are very rare, yet offer important leverage in terms of testing galaxy formation models free of environmental processes. They also act as a valuable control sample. Here I briefly summarise past samples of isolated early-type

Abundant Molecular Gas in the Central Region of Lenticular Galaxy PGC 39535

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) in the local Universe are generally absent of recent star formation and lack molecular gas. In this paper, we investigate one massive ( M _* ∼ 5 × 10 ^10 M _⊙ ) star-forming S0, PGC 39535, with the Northern Extended Millimeter ...

Scaling Relations of Early-Type Galaxies in MOND

open access: yesGalaxies
We investigate the shape and morphology of early-type galaxies (ETGs) within the framework of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND). Building on our previous studies, which demonstrated that the monolithic collapse of primordial gas clouds in MOND produces ...

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

VLT spectroscopy of globular cluster systems:II. spectroscopic ages, metallicities, and [alpha/Fe] ratios of globular clusters in early-type galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
An analysis of ages, metallicities, and [ α/Fe]  ratios of globular cluster systems in early-type galaxies is presented, based on Lick index measurements summarized in Puzia et al. (2004, A&A, 415, 123, Paper I of this series).

DiskScissors: Cutting Arbitrary‐Topology Solids for Bijective Mapping

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract An algorithm for cutting solid objects in a topology‐controlled manner is presented. Concretely, given a loop on the object boundary, a disk‐topology cut surface bounded by the loop is constructed in the interior. In contrast to various previous approaches, both disk topology and conformance to the prescribed loop are ensured by construction ...
