Energy Evolution in the Progenitor of Galaxy Shells: A Semi-analytical Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The stellar shells surrounding an elliptical galaxy, as remnants of a dwarf galaxy disrupted during merging, reveal the distribution of energy and angular momentum of the progenitor dwarf galaxy. We develop a semi-analytical model to describe the changes

Scaling Relations of Early-Type Galaxies in MOND

open access: yesGalaxies
We investigate the shape and morphology of early-type galaxies (ETGs) within the framework of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND). Building on our previous studies, which demonstrated that the monolithic collapse of primordial gas clouds in MOND produces ...

Automatic Detection of Galaxy Type From Datasets of Galaxies Image Based on Image Retrieval Approach

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
This paper presents a new approach for the automatic detection of galaxy morphology from datasets based on an image-retrieval approach. Currently, there are several classification methods proposed to detect galaxy types within an image.

Modeling the Ages and Chemical Abundances of Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Spectroscopic studies of elliptical galaxies show that their stellar population ages, mean metallicity, and α enhancement traced by [Mg/Fe] all increase with galaxy stellar mass or velocity dispersion.

Circular Mystery: Exploring Diffuse Emission Surrounding a Radio Galaxy with uGMRT and VLA Multiwavelength Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the discovery of J1218+1813, a circular diffuse radio source detected in the Very Large Array (VLA) FIRST survey at 1400 MHz. The source has an angular diameter of approximately one arcminute, corresponding to a physical size of ∼180 kpc, and ...

NO THE HOLMBERG EFFECT FOR GALAXY PAIRS SELECTED FROM THE SDSS DR9 AT Z ≤ 0:06

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2016
We studied the Holmberg effect in galaxy pairs selected from the SDSS DR9, where 60561galaxies were limited by redshift 0.02 < z < 0.06 and absolute magnitude: Mr ≤ −20.7 m for central galaxies (N=18578) and Mr > −21.5 m for neighbor galaxies (N=41983 ...

Gas Accretion from a Neighbouring Galaxy Fuels the Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus in NGC 4278

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
How a seemingly “dead” host galaxy provides fuel for its active galactic nucleus (AGN) remains an unresolved problem. Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), we present a new high-sensitivity atomic-hydrogen (H i ...

Absorption Line Gradients of an Elliptical Galaxy NGC 5322 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1999
Archival long-slit spectra, covering the wavelength range 4050Å - 5150Å, have been used to investigate the radial behavior of absorption line features (G4300, Fe4383, Ca4455, Fe44531, Fe4668, and Hα) of an eliptical galaxy NGC 5322.

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 ...

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
