Assembling Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996
Nearby spiral galaxies offer vital clues to some of the most fundamental questions about galaxy formation and evolution: What is the star formation history of the universe, past and future? When did disks form, during the final stages of a single primeval collapse, or as a continuous or episodic process?

ULTRALIGHT SCALARS AND SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 2001
We study some possible astrophysical implications of a very weakly coupled ultralight dilaton-type scalar field. Such a field may develop an (approximately stable) network of domain walls. The domain wall thickness is assumed to be comparable with the thickness of the luminous part of the spiral galaxies. The walls provide trapping for galactic matter.

Exploring the evolution of spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2002
We have constructed a family of simple models for spiral galaxy evolution to allow us to investigate observational trends in star formation history with galaxy parameters. The models are used to generate broad band colours from which ages and metallicities are derived in the same way as the data.

Dark Matter in Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1995
In this review I will concentrate on three questions concerning the issue of dark matter in spiral galaxies. In the first place (and for the most part) I will discuss the analysis of rotation curves and the question whether the “maximum–disk hypothesis” is valid.

ON THE FRACTION OF BARRED SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2010
We investigate the stellar masses of strongly barred spiral galaxies. Our analysis is based on a sample of ~14000 visually-classified nearby galaxies given in Nair & Abraham 2010(a). The fraction of barred spiral galaxies is found to be a strong function of stellar mass and star formation history, with a minimum near the characteristic mass at ...

Scaling Relations of Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2007
We construct a large data set of global structural parameters for 1300 field and cluster spiral galaxies and explore the joint distribution of luminosity L, optical rotation velocity V, and disk size R at I- and 2MASS K-bands. The I- and K-band velocity-luminosity (VL) relations have log-slopes of 0.29 and 0.27, respectively with sigma_ln(VL)~0.13, and

Multifunctional Chiral Halide Perovskites: Advancing Chiro‐Optics, Chiro‐Optoelectronics, and Spintronics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review spotlights key advances in chiral halide perovskite materials and devices, covering device architectures, fabrication methods, and emerging applications like circularly polarized light functions, neuromorphic computing, and spintronics. It explores structure‐property relationships and chirality transfer mechanisms, discusses challenges in ...
