The Stability of Galaxy Disks

open access: yes, 2013
We calculate the stellar surface mass density (Sigma_*) and two-component (gas+stars) disk stability (Q_RW) for 25 late-type galaxies from the DiskMass Survey. These calculations are based on fits of a dynamical model to our ionized-gas and stellar kinematic data performed using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling of the Bayesian posterior ...

Disk Galaxies and Galaxy Disks [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2000
The conference Galaxy Disks and Disk Galaxies, sponsored by the Vatican Observatory, was held in June 12-16, 2000 at the Pontifical Gregorian University, in Rome (Italy). The meeting hosted about 230 participants coming from 30 countries. The very full program consisted of 29 review papers, 34 invited talks, and more than 180 posters.

A Rest-frame Near-IR Study of Clumps in Galaxies at 1 < z < 2 Using JWST/NIRCam: Connection to Galaxy Bulges

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
A key question in galaxy evolution has been the importance of the apparent “clumpiness” of high-redshift galaxies. Until now, this property has been primarily investigated in rest-frame UV, limiting our understanding of their relevance.

Tilted Dark Halos Are Common and Long-lived, and Can Warp Galactic Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
In the Lambda cold dark matter paradigm, the dark halo governs the gravitational potential within which a galaxy can form and evolve. In this Letter we show that the present-day inner ( r < 50 kpc) dark halo can be significantly misaligned with the ...

XUE: Molecular Inventory in the Inner Region of an Extremely Irradiated Protoplanetary Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present the first results of the eXtreme UV Environments (XUE) James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) program, which focuses on the characterization of planet-forming disks in massive star-forming regions.

Hidden Imprints of Minor Merging in Early-Type Galaxies: Inner Polar Rings and Inclined Large-Scale Gaseous Disks In S0s

open access: yesGalaxies, 2015
I discuss my latest observational data and ideas about decoupled gaseous subsystems in nearby lenticular galaxies. As an extreme case of inclined gaseous disks, I demonstrate a sample of inner polar disks, derive their incidence, about 10% among the ...

Automatic Classification of Galaxy Morphology: A Rotationally-invariant Supervised Machine-learning Method Based on the Unsupervised Machine-learning Data Set

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Classification of galaxy morphology is a challenging but meaningful task for the enormous amount of data produced by the next-generation telescope.

THE OUTER DISKS OF GALAXIES:“TO BE OR NOT TO BE TRUNCATED?” [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We have in recent years come to view the outer parts of galaxies as having vital clues about their formation and evolution. Here, we would like to briefly present our results from a complete sample of nearby, late-type, spiral galaxies, using data from the SDSS survey, especially focused on the stellar light distribution in the outer disk.
