Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): stellar mass growth of spiral galaxies in the cosmic web [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We look for correlated changes in stellar mass and star formation rate (SFR) along filaments in the cosmic web by examining the stellar masses and UV-derived SFRs of 1799 ungrouped and unpaired spiral galaxies that reside in filaments. We devise multiple

Spiral Galaxies as Chiral Objects? [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2006
Spiral galaxies show axial symmetry and an intrinsic 2D-chirality. Environmental effects can influence the chirality of originally isolated stellar systems and a progressive loss of chirality can be recognised in the Hubble sequence. We point out a preferential modality for genetic galaxies as in microscopic systems like aminoacids, sugars or neutrinos.

DGSAT: Dwarf Galaxy Survey with Amateur Telescopes I. Discovery of low surface brightness systems around nearby spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Context: We introduce the Dwarf Galaxy Survey with Amateur Telescopes (DGSAT) project and report the discovery of eleven low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the fields of the nearby galaxies NGC 2683, NGC 3628, NGC 4594 (M104), NGC 4631, NGC 5457 ...

HOT GASEOUS CORONAE AROUND SPIRAL GALAXIES: PROBING THE ILLUSTRIS SIMULATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The presence of hot gaseous coronae around present-day massive spiral galaxies is a fundamental prediction of galaxy formation models. However, our observational knowledge remains scarce, since to date only four gaseous coronae have been detected around ...

Dawes Review 4: Spiral Structures in Disc Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesPublications Astronomical Society of Australia, 2014
The majority of astrophysics involves the study of spiral galaxies, and stars and planets within them, but how spiral arms in galaxies form and evolve is still a fundamental problem. Major progress in this field was made primarily in the 1960s, and early

Accretion, radial flows and abundance gradients in spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The metal-poor gas continuously accreting on to the discs of spiral galaxies is unlikely to arrive from the intergalactic medium (IGM) with exactly the same rotation velocity as the galaxy itself and even a small angular momentum mismatch inevitably ...

IN-N-OUT: THE GAS CYCLE FROM DWARFS TO SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We examine the scalings of galactic outflows with halo mass across a suite of 20 high-resolution cosmological zoom galaxy simulations covering halo masses in the range .

Spiral galaxies in the SAURON survey [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007
AbstractWe discuss some recent integral field spectroscopy using the SAURON instrument of a sample consisting of 24 early-type spirals, part of the SAURON Survey, and 18 late-type spirals. Using 2-dimensional maps of their stellar radial velocity, velocity dispersion, and absorption line strength, it is now much easier to understand the nature of ...
