Surface Density of Disk Galaxies in MOND
In this paper, we extend a paper by Milgrom (2009, MNRAS 398, 1023) dealing with the existence of a quasi-universal surface density for object of all mass and structure, if they are in the Newtonian regime, i.e., that their mean acceleration is larger ...

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

Spirality: A Novel Way to Measure Spiral Arm Pitch Angle
We present the MATLAB code Spirality, a novel method for measuring spiral arm pitch angles by fitting galaxy images to spiral templates of known pitch. Computation time is typically on the order of 2 min per galaxy, assuming 8 GB of working memory.

Theoretical Modeling of Starburst Galaxies [PDF]
We have modeled a large sample of infrared starburst galaxies using both the PEGASE v2.0 and STARBURST99 codes to generate the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the young star clusters.

Direct Imaging of a Toroidal Magnetic Field in the Inner Jet of NRAO 150
Most formation models and numerical simulations cause a helical magnetic field to form, accelerate and collimate jets in active galactic nuclei (AGN). For this reason, observational direct evidence for the existence of these helical magnetic fields is of

The Optical and Near-Infrared Properties of Galaxies. I. Luminosity and Stellar Mass Functions [PDF]
We use a large sample of galaxies from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to calculate galaxy luminosity and stellar mass functions in the local universe. We estimate corrections for passband shifting and galaxy

New Strong Constraints on the Central Behaviour of Spherical Galactic Models
First of all, we show that any spherically symmetric galactic model with integrated mass profile M(r)→0 as r→0 is physically correct close to the centre only provided that the circular velocity vc(r)→0 and the gravitational field g(r)→0 as r→0.

Emission Knots and Polarization Swings of Swinging Jets
Knots (emission features in jets of active galactic nuclei) often show non-ballistic dynamics and variable emission/polarization properties. We model these features as emission pattern propagating in a jet that carries a helical magnetic field and is ...
