Shape constrained estimators in inverse regression models with convolution-type operator [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we are concerned with shape restricted estimation in inverse regression problems with convolution-type operator. We use increasing rearrangements to compute increasingand convex estimates from an (in principle arbitrary) unconstrained ...

Mapping Interstellar Dust in the Foreground Outer Disk of Overlapping Galaxy Pair VV 191 with HST and JWST

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
VV 191 is a nearby ( z ∼ 0.05), overlapping (occulting) galaxy pair, where a multiple-armed spiral galaxy is backlit by an elliptical galaxy. The overlap is used to derive and map dust attenuation in two James Webb Space Telescope NIRCam filters (F090W ...

CAPM and Option Pricing with Elliptical Disbributions [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we offer an alternative proof of the Capital Asset Pricing Model when the returns follow a multivariate elliptical distribution. Empirical studies continue to demonstrate the inappropriateness of the normality assumption in modelling asset

Stellar Population Synthesis of the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4649 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2001
We investigated population of the elliptical galaxy NGC 4649 using the spectral synthesis technique based on the linear program in the spectral regions between 3160Å to 10800Å. We used the spectral data of stars obtained by Gunn & Stryker (1983), and the

Elliptical galaxies: fundamental relations, environmental effects and peculiar motions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
This thesis investigates the reliability of the D - σ and D - Mg(_2) distance indicators for elliptical galaxies. In particular, we test whether these empirical correlations are affected by differences in the stellar populations of elliptical galaxies ...

BL Lac Host Galaxies: How to Systematically Characterize Them in Optical–Near-infrared Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Host galaxies of active galactic nuclei (AGN) give crucial information on the interaction between accreting supermassive black holes and their surroundings and on their common evolution.

Spectral analysis of the elliptical galaxy NGC 7796 with suzaku

open access: yesJournal of Radiation Research and Applied Sciences
We report Suzaku X-ray spectral analysis of the elliptical galaxy NGC 7796. We found the temperature and the abundances of O (∼0.54 keV), Ne (∼0.87 keV), Mg (∼1.30 keV), Si (∼1.84 keV), (hearafter O–Si), and Fe (∼6.4 keV) in the NGC 7796 for the first ...

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 ...

Clustering and redshift-space distortions in QSO and galaxy surveys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this thesis, we exploit the potential of existing QSO and galaxy surveys for investigating the nature of the large scale structure in the Universe. A detailed analysis of clustering and redshift- space distortions allows us to constrain cosmological ...

No Evidence of a Dichotomy in the Elliptical Galaxy Population

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The advent of large integral field spectroscopic surveys has found that elliptical galaxies (EGs) can be divided into two classes: the fast rotators (whose kinematics are dominated by rotation) and the slow rotators (which exhibit slow or no rotation ...
