Alignment and morphology of elliptical galaxies: the influence of the cluster tidal field
We investigate two possible effects of the tidal field induced by a spherical cluster on its elliptical galaxy members: the modification of the ellipticity of a spherical galaxy and the isophotal alignment in the cluster radial direction of a misaligned ...

Dynamical Models of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
Self-consistent dynamical models of elliptical galaxies have been constructed using a modification of the Prendergast-Tomer algorithm. They reproduce many of the observed properties of elliptical galaxies.

Geometrical evidence for dark matter: X-ray constraints on the mass of the elliptical galaxy NGC 720 [PDF]
We describe (1) a new test for dark matter and alternate theories of gravitation based on the relative geometries of the X-ray and optical surface brightness distributions and an assumed form for the potential, of the optical light, (2) a technique to ...

Proton‐linked effects on the axial coordination in ferric and ferrous horse heart cytochrome c
Abstract The effect of pH (between pH 7.0 and 0.0) on the spectroscopic properties of ferric and ferrous derivatives of horse heart cytochrome c (hhcytc‐Fe(III) and hhcytc‐Fe(II), respectively) in 1.0M phosphate buffer is reported. This study further deepens the investigation of spectroscopic properties of a heme‐protein to very low pH (i.e., pH ≈ 0 ...

UV Visibility of Moderate-Redshift Giant Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
We show quantitatively whether giant elliptical galaxies would be visible at far UV wavelengths if they were placed at moderate redshift of 0.4-0.5. On the basis of simple cosmological tests, we conclude that giant elliptical galaxies can be detectable ...

The Effect of Superpositions on the Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function
Planetary nebula (PN) surveys in systems beyond ∼10 Mpc often find high-excitation, point-like sources with [O iii ] λ 5007 fluxes greater than the apparent bright-end cutoff of the planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF).

The intrinsic alignment of galaxies is an important systematic effect in weak-lensing surveys, which can affect the derived cosmological parameters. One direct way to distinguish different alignment models and quantify their effects on the measurement is

Principal Component Analysis of Molecular Dynamic Trajectories: Concepts, Tools, and Applications
Principal component analysis (PCA) applied to dynamical systems. Top‐left: PCA of the tip motion of a mechanical spring. Top‐right: dihedral PCA of the trialanine peptide. Bottom‐left: three‐dimensional mapping of the end‐to‐end distance in the space of the first two eigenvectors of a β‐hairpin peptide.

Can We Discover Physical Models Using Machine Learning? A Case Study of Galaxy Sizes
We explore the ability of machine learning methods to discover underlying equations of physics by searching for the equations governing galaxy size in a semianalytic model. This case study allows us to evaluate the process as we know the ground truth. We

Minor mergers are thought to drive the structural evolution of massive quiescent galaxies; however, existing Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging is primarily sensitive to stellar mass ratios ≳1:10.
