Planetary Nebulae and the Ionization of the Interstellar Medium in Galaxies

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
We discuss the role of planetary nebulae and their progeny in galaxy context in terms of ionization of the galaxy interstellar medium. This regards ionized gas outside the disk of spiral galaxies, the diffuse ionized medium in spiral galaxies, and the ...

New Resonance Scattering Model in AtomDB: Application to Line Suppression in Galaxy Clusters and Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In this paper, we present the simple, one-step, self-consistent, and fast resonance scattering model rsapec based on the AtomDB database. This model can be used as an alternative to the commonly used APEC model for fitting X-ray spectra with optically ...

Formation of Major Types of Galaxies Based on the Energy Circulation Theory

open access: yesReports in Advances of Physical Sciences, 2022
The standard cosmology can answer almost nothing about how the structure of a galaxy is formed. It expects a supermassive black hole at the center and dark matter in the halo to explain the circulation of stars and its velocity.

The effects of the vision on the central opacity and the positions of the curves invers for the brightness of the assumed elliptic sphere [PDF]

open access: yesمجلة التربية والعلم, 2006
The seeing effects on spherical symmetric Elliptical galaxy type EO following the r1/4- model has been calculated by using two type of the point spread function the Gaussian and Moffat functions .

Triaxial Orbit-based Dynamical Modeling of Galaxies with Supermassive Black Holes and an Application to Massive Elliptical Galaxy NGC 1453

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Most stellar-dynamical determinations of the masses of nearby supermassive black holes (SMBHs) have been obtained with the orbit superposition technique under the assumption of axisymmetry.

Formation of Transitional cE/UCD Galaxies through Massive/Dwarf Disc Galaxy Mergers

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
The dynamics of the merger of a dwarf disc galaxy with a massive spiral galaxy of the Milky Way type were studied in detail. The remnant of such interaction after numerous crossings of the satellite through the disc of the main galaxy was a compact ...

Mass Dependence of Galaxy–Halo Alignment in LOWZ and CMASS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We measure the galaxy-ellipticity (GI) correlations for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 12 LOWZ and CMASS samples with the shape measurements from the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys.

The Shapes and Ages of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1996
Normally elliptical galaxies are thought to be old, evolved systems, but recently a controversy has arisen over the age of ellipticals. Measurements by Gonzáles (1993, Ph.D. thesis, UCSC) show that the Hβ absorption indices of ellipticals span a range of values.

The Gravitational Lens CFRS03.1077 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
An exquisite gravitational arc with a radius of 2.1" has been discovered around the z = 0.938 field elliptical galaxy CFRS03.1077 during HST observations of Canada-France Redshift Survey (CFRS) fields.
