Models for low-mass X-ray binaries in the elliptical galaxies NGC3379 and NGC4278: Comparsion with observations

open access: yes, 2008
We present theoretical models for the formation and evolution of populations of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the two elliptical galaxies NGC 3379 and NGC ...

A polarimetry study of starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Optical imaging polarimetry has been carried out for a number of starburst galaxies under various morphological classifications. In several cases, kpc-scale reflection nebulae are detected which arise from dust grains scattering starburst radiation ...

Compact Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this thesis, a sample of nearby, compact, elliptical galaxies with high central stellar velocity dispersions are studied. By means of high quality photometric and spectroscopic observations, we analyse their structural properties and construct state-of-the-art orbit-based dynamical models to constrain their total mass budgets, including the ...

Extreme isolated elliptical galaxies

open access: yes, 2002
This dissertation presents the results of a detailed search for and the photometric and spectroscopic analysis of nine elliptical galaxies isolated from nearest neighbors of M V < ?16.5 by distances in excess of 2.5 megaparsec.

Structure and Kinematics of Star-forming Elliptical Galaxies in SDSS-MaNGA

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using “spatially” resolved spectroscopy, we investigated the characteristics and different modes of formation of stars in elliptical galaxies. We identified an unusual population of 59 star-forming elliptical (SF-E) galaxies in SDSS-MaNGA, our primary ...

Investigation of the Nuclear Cross-Sections for Proton Capture Reactionsin the Star Formation Process of the Galaxies

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Physics
Understanding the CNO cycle and the proton-proton (p-p) chain is essential for comprehending the development of main sequence stars in the initial stages of spiral and elliptical galaxy formation. This study investigates two nuclear reactions that occur

The clustering and X-ray properties of faint galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The clustering properties of faint (23 ≤ B ≤ 27) galaxies were investigated, with the aim of obtaining information about their redshift distribution, N(z), and therefore about the processes of galaxy evolution causing the steep rise in the galaxy number ...

Connecting Cores and Black Hole Dynamics across Scales: From Globular Clusters to Massive Ellipticals

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The centers of massive elliptical galaxies exhibit a wide range in density profiles, from central cusps to resolved cores with order kiloparsec sizes.
