Spiral Structure of Our Galaxy and of Other Galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970 Time and again Dr. B. Bok publishes his reviews on the state of optical searches of the spiral arms in our Galaxy. A great optimist at the beginning, concerning the agreement of different results, he became later more critical in his conclusions. But in his paper of 1967 he claims anew, as well established, that we can trace the spiral arms up to a ...

Galaxy structures — groups, clusters and superclusters [PDF]
International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2014 We provide a brief summary of the history of galaxy structure studies. We also introduce several large-scale redshift surveys and summarize the most commonly used methods to identify the groups and clusters of galaxies. We present several catalogs of galaxy groups. These catalogs can be used to study the galaxy groups in different environments.

The void galaxy survey: photometry, structure and identity of void galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 We analyze photometry from deep B-band images of 59 void galaxies in the Void Galaxy Survey (VGS), together with their near-infrared 3.6$ $m and 4.5$ $m Spitzer photometry. The VGS galaxies constitute a sample of void galaxies that were selected by a geometric-topological procedure from the SDSS DR7 data release, and which populate the deep interior ...

Dependence of Galaxy Structure on Rest‐Frame Wavelength and Galaxy Type [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 We present a quantitative analysis of the morphologies for 199 nearby galaxies as parameterized with measurements of the concentration, asymmetry, and clumpiness (CAS) parameters at wavelengths from 0.15-0.85 micrometers. We find that these CAS parameters depend on both galaxy type and the wavelength of observation.

On a mechanism that structures galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1979 By considering the interaction of a single stellar orbit with a weak cos 2Φ potential it is shown that in the central regions of galaxies with slowly rising rotation curves, the elongations of the orbits will align along any potential valley and oscillate about it. This effect is more pronounced for elongated orbits.

Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): variation in galaxy structure across the green valley [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018 Using a sample of 472 local Universe (z < 0.06) galaxies in the stellar mass range 10.25 < logM*/M⊙ < 10.75, we explore the variation in galaxy structure as a function of morphology and galaxy colour. Our sample of galaxies is subdivided into red, green, and blue colour groups and into elliptical and non-elliptical (disk-type) morphologies ...

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1964 The title which the organizers of the Symposium have suggested for this introductory report covers an enormous domain. Even if one limits oneself, as I intend to do, to the large-scale structure, it is impossible to summarize this adequately in one communication.
