The AMIGA sample of isolated galaxies. V. Quantification of the isolation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The AMIGA project aims to build a well defined and statistically significant reference sample of isolated galaxies in order to estimate the environmental effects on the formation and evolution of galaxies.

The Connection Between Galaxies and Their Dark Matter Halos [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2018
In our modern understanding of galaxy formation, every galaxy forms within a dark matter halo. The formation and growth of galaxies over time is connected to the growth of the halos in which they form.

Galaxy subgroups in galaxy clusters [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2011
Galaxies which fall into clusters as part of the same infall halo can retain correlations due to their shared origin. N-body simulations are used to study properties of such galaxy subgroups within clusters, including their richnesses and prevalence.

Galaxy protocluster candidates around z ~ 2.4 radio galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study the environments of 6 radio galaxies at 2.2 < z < 2.6 using wide-field near-infrared images. We use colour cuts to identify galaxies in this redshift range, and find that three of the radio galaxies are surrounded by significant surface ...

Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies, and the Distant Universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We describe the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV), a project encompassing three major spectroscopic programs. The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment 2 (APOGEE-2) is observing hundreds of thousands of Milky Way stars at high ...
