The Formation of Galaxy Disks

open access: yes, 2008
We present a new set of multi-million particle SPH simulations of the formation of disk dominated galaxies in a cosmological context. Some of these galaxies are higher resolution versions of the models already described in Governato et al (2007). To correctly compare simulations with observations we create artificial images of our simulations and from ...

Disk Galaxies at High Redshift? [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007
AbstractThe successful implementation of integral field near-infrared spectrographs fed by adaptive optics is providing unprecedented views of gas motions within galaxies at redshifts z = 2 − 3, when the universe was forming stars at its peak rate. A complex picture of galaxy kinematics is emerging, with inflows, rotation within sometimes extended and ...

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

On the Significance of the Thick Disks of Disk Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Abstract Thick disks are a prevalent feature observed in numerous disk galaxies, including our own Milky Way. Their significance has been reported to vary widely, ranging from a few percent to 100% of the disk mass, depending on the galaxy and the measurement method.

On the scaling relations of disk galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012
AbstractThe physical background of scaling laws of disk galaxies is reviewed. The match between analytically derived and observed scaling laws is briefly discussed. Accurate modeling of the fraction of baryons that end up populating a disk, and the conversion efficiency of those into stars, remains a challenging task for numerical simulations.

Electronics‐Free Visual Monitoring of Dry Eye Disease‐Related Tear Biomarkers Using Smart Scleral Lenses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An electronics‐free smart scleral lens passively monitors dry eye disease‐related tear biomarkers through colorimetric sensing of chloride, pH, and ocular surface temperature. Smartphone‐assisted image analysis enables quantitative interpretation, providing a simple, non‐invasive strategy for ocular health monitoring without integrated electronics ...

Circumnuclear Keplerian Disks in Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1998
In this paper we demonstrate the possibility of inferring the presence of Keplerian gaseous disks using optical ground-based telescopes properly equipped. We have modeled the peculiar bidimensional shape of the emission lines in a sample of five S0-Sa galaxies as due to the motion of a gaseous disk rotating in the combined potential of a central point ...

Principal Component‐Based Classification of Blazar Candidates of Uncertain Type in the 4FGL/LAT

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We adopted principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and support vector machines (SVM), to study classification for a sample of 2708 Fermi blazars: 1142 BL Lac objects (BLLs), 759 flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), and 807 blazar candidates of uncertain type (BCUs).
