Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful tool to provide constraints on galaxy mass distributions and cosmological parameters, such as the Hubble constant, H0. Nevertheless, inference of such parameters from images of lensing systems is not trivial as parameter degeneracies can limit the precision in the measured lens mass and cosmological results ...

ABSTRACT Planetary nebulae represent a late evolutionary phase of low‐ to intermediate‐mass stars. In this article, we present the serendipitous discovery of a previously unknown, faint potential Galactic planetary nebula (PN) in the constellation Camelopardalis, identified during a survey‐inspection, aiming at the detection of dwarf companions of the ...

Kinematics and simulations of the stellar stream in the halo of the umbrella galaxy [PDF]
We study the dynamics of faint stellar substructures around the Umbrella Galaxy, NGC 4651, which hosts a dramatic system of streams and shells formed through the tidal disruption of a nucleated dwarf elliptical galaxy.

Abstract Field data collection is a key activity in plant breeding, underpinning efforts to develop crop varieties with improved yields, disease resistance, and climate adaptability. Accurately associating data with the correct field plots is critical for selection and genetic improvement but can be challenging, especially in large experiments.

Three contributions to Galaxy Dynamics: distant galaxy kinematics, mass, and M/L
1) Rotation Curves and M/L Evolution for Galaxies to z=0.4, (Bershady, Haynes, Giovanelli, & Andersen) 2) Mass Estimates of Starbursting Galaxies: Line Widths versus Near-IR Luminosities (Jangren, Bershady, & Gronwall) 3) Galaxy Kinematics with Integral Field Spectroscopy (Andersen, Bershady)

ABSTRACT This study presents a numerical investigation of passive scalar mixing in homogeneous isotropic turbulence (HIT). Different volumetric forcing schemes have been used in the literature, but the side effects are rarely discussed, either because these are assumed irrelevant or because it is too costly to conduct such an analysis with a high ...

The evolution of dark matter substructure [PDF]
This thesis investigates the dynamical evolution of systems orbiting within deeper potentials. Initially we use a simple satellite-halo interaction to study the dynamical processes that act on orbiting systems and we compare these results to analytical ...

A Dynamical and Kinematic Model of the Galactic Stellar Halo and Possible Implications for Galaxy Formation Scenarios [PDF]
We re-analyse the kinematics of the system of blue horizontal branch field (BHBF) stars in the Galactic halo (in particular the outer halo), fitting the kinematics with the model of radial and tangential velocity dispersions in the halo as a function of galactocentric distance r proposed by Sommer-Larsen, Flynn & Christensen (1994), using a much ...

A Re‐Examination of Foundational Elements of Cosmology
ABSTRACT This paper undertakes a conceptual re‐examination of several foundational elements of cosmology through the lens of spacetime symmetries. A new derivation of the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker metric is obtained by a careful conceptual examination of rotations and translations on generic manifolds, followed by solving the rotational and ...
