FEEDBACK FROM CENTRAL BLACK HOLES IN ELLIPTICAL GALAXIES. III. MODELS WITH BOTH RADIATIVE AND MECHANICAL FEEDBACK [PDF]

, 2010
We find, from high-resolution hydro simulations, that winds from active galactic nuclei effectively heat the inner parts (≈100 pc) of elliptical galaxies, reducing infall to the central black hole; and radiative (photoionization and X-ray) heating ...

Tools for Learning—Promoting Reflection for Student Teachers' Development of PCK

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how the coherent integration of three different tools for reflection during a science methods course can contribute to student teachers' planning and enactment of science teaching, that is, their development of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK).

Triaxiality in elliptical galaxies

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1980
A simple geometrical model of elliptical galaxies having shells with different axial ratios c/a, b/a has been produced to interpret three fundamental key-features of elliptical galaxies: (1) the distribution of the maximum flattening observed; (2) the percentage of ellipticals showing twisting; and (3) the correlation between maximum twisting and ...

Galactic Density and Evolution Based on the Virial Theorem, Energy Minimization, and Conservation of Angular Momentum

Galaxies, 2018
Spiral galaxies are spinning, internally densified objects. The Virial Theorem explains galactic rotation curves via its linkage of the rotation rate to the gravitational self-potential (Ug) and the moment of inertia of oblate spheroids.

Advanced Life Peaked Billions of Years Ago According to Black Holes

Galaxies, 2023
The link between black holes and star formation allows for us to draw a connection between black holes and the places and times when extraterrestrial intelligences (ETIs) had a greater chance of emerging.

How non-linear scaling relations unify dwarf and giant elliptical galaxies

, 2010
Dwarf elliptical galaxies are frequently excluded from bright galaxy samples because they do not follow the same linear relations in diagrams involving effective half light radii R_e or mean effective surface brightnesses _e.

The Abundance Pattern of O, Ne, Mg, and Fe in the Interstellar Medium of S0 Galaxy NGC 4382 Observed with Suzaku [PDF]

, 2009
We derived O, Ne, and Mg abundances in the interstellar medium (ISM) of a relatively isolated S0 galaxy, NGC 4382, observed with the Suzaku XIS instruments and compared the O/Ne/Mg/Fe abundance pattern to those of the ISM in elliptical galaxies.

THE COOL INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM IN ELLIPTICAL GALAXIES. II. GAS CONTENT IN THE VOLUME-LIMITED SAMPLE AND RESULTS FROM THE COMBINED ELLIPTICAL AND LENTICULAR SURVEYS [PDF]

, 2010
We report new observations of atomic and molecular gas in a volume-limited sample of elliptical galaxies. Combining the elliptical sample with an earlier and similar lenticular one, we show that cool gas detection rates are very similar among low ...

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

Experimental 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 ...

Influence of major mergers on the radio emission of elliptical galaxies

, 2012
We investigate the influence of major mergers on the radio emission of elliptical galaxies. We use a complete sample of close pairs, which contains 475 merging and 1828 non-merging paired elliptical galaxies of ...
