The edge of the Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT We use cosmological simulations of isolated Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxies, as well as Local Group (LG) analogues, to define the ‘edge’ – a caustic manifested in a drop in density or radial velocity – of Galactic-sized haloes, both in dark matter and in stars.

The Origin of Star Formation in Early-type Galaxies Inferred from Spatially Resolved Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigate the origin of star formation activity in early-type galaxies with current star formation using spatially resolved spectroscopic data from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Galaxy Disks and Disk Galaxies1 [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2000
The conference Galaxy Disks and Disk Galaxies, sponsored by the Vatican Observatory, was held in June 12-16, 2000 at the Pontifical Gregorian University, in Rome (Italy). The meeting hosted about 230 participants coming from 30 countries. The very full program consisted of 29 review papers, 34 invited talks, and more than 180 posters.

The 50 Mpc Galaxy Catalog (50 MGC): Consistent and Homogeneous Masses, Distances, Colors, and Morphologies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We assemble a catalog of 15424 nearby galaxies within 50 Mpc with consistent and homogenized mass, distance, and morphological type measurements. Our catalog combines galaxies from HyperLeda, the NASA-Sloan Atlas, and the Catalog of Local Volume Galaxies.

Galaxy masses [PDF]

open access: yesReviews of Modern Physics, 2014
145 pages, 28 figures, to appear in Reviews of Modern Physics. Figure 22 is missing here, and Figs. 15, 26-28 are at low resolution. This version has a slightly different title and some typos fixed in Chapter 5. For the full review with figures, please consult: http://www.astro.queensu.ca/~courteau/GalaxyMasses_28apr2014 ...

Retracted: Can the chemical industry solve the climate change?On the role of human energy production, renewable energies, and the potential of chemistry as a solution provider

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView., 2023
Let us consider an alternative perspective on climate change: The sum of solar radiation and heat generated by human activity result in a net energy input of 1.96 times that of the Sun on the Earth's surface. The expanding global population is expected to exacerbate this issue. Potential solutions are proposed, including replacement and heat recycling.

Einstein, Planck and Vera Rubin: Relevant Encounters Between the Cosmological and the Quantum Worlds

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
In Cosmology and in Fundamental Physics there is a crucial question like: where the elusive substance that we call Dark Matter is hidden in the Universe and what is it made of?

The physical properties of star-forming galaxies in the low-redshift universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present a comprehensive study of the physical properties of ∼ 10 5 galaxies with measurable star formation in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). By comparing physical information extracted from the emission lines with continuum properties, we build ...
