On the Root Cause of the Host “Mass Step” in the Hubble Residuals of Type Ia Supernovae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
It is well established that the Hubble residuals of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) show the luminosity step with respect to their host galaxy stellar masses.

Chemical Homogeneity of Wide Binary Systems: An Approach from Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Wide binaries, with separations between the two stars from a few au to more than several thousand au, are valuable objects for various research topics in Galactic astronomy.

Unraveling Joint Evolution of Bars, Star Formation, and Active Galactic Nuclei of Disk Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We aim to unravel the interplay between bars, star formation (SF), and active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in barred galaxies. To this end, we utilize the SDSS DR12 to select a sample of nearby (0.02 < z < 0.06) disk galaxies that are suitable for bar ...

Rejuvenating Star Formation Activity in an Early-type Dwarf Galaxy, LEDA 1915372, with Accreted H i Gas

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We report a rare astrophysical phenomenon, in which an early-type dwarf galaxy (dE), LEDA 1915372, is accreting gas from a nearby star-forming dwarf galaxy, MRK 0689, and is rejuvenating star formation activity at the center.

Fractional yields inferred from halo and thick disk stars [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2013
Linear [Q/H]-[O/H] relations, Q = Na, Mg, Si, Ca, Ti, Cr, Fe, Ni, are inferred from a sample (N = 67) of recently studied FGK-type dwarf stars in the solar neighbourhood including different populations (Nissen and Schuster 2010, Ramirez et al ...

Tertiary mirror location diversity on very large etendue telescope architectures [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Two distinct reflective telescope designs utilizing a variation of three-mirror anastigmat configuration were investigated. We demonstrate how the strategic placement of the tertiary mirror significantly influences the telescope's form factor, enabling ...

Formation of a Massive Lenticular Galaxy Under the Tidal Interaction with a Group of Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Based on the atomic-hydrogen (H i ) observations using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope, we present a detailed study of the gas-rich massive S0 galaxy NGC 1023 in a nearby galaxy group.

Strong Progenitor Age Bias in Supernova Cosmology and Alignment with DESI BAO

open access: yesUniverse
Supernova (SN) cosmology is based on the assumption that the luminosity of type Ia SNe, after the luminosity standardization process, remains invariant with progenitor age.

Multi-epoch VLBI observations of the blazar 3C 66A: Spatial twisting and temporal oscillation of the parsec-scale jet

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. High-resolution very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations have revealed a growing number of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) that exhibit variations in their inner jet position angle (PA).

Comparison of the Chemical Compositions between the Bright and Faint Red Clumps for the Metal-poor and Metal-rich Populations in the Milky Way Bulge

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We examined the double red clump (RC) observed in the Galactic bulge, interpreted as a difference in distance (“X-shaped bulge scenario”) or in chemical composition (“multiple population scenario”).
