Evolution Through the Post-starburst Phase: Using Post-starburst Galaxies as Laboratories for Understanding the Processes that Drive Galaxy Evolution [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2021 Post-starburst (or “E+A”) galaxies trace the fastest and most dramatic processes in galaxy evolution. Recent work studying the evolution of galaxies through this phase has revealed insights on how galaxies undergo structural and stellar population ...

Voronoi volume function: a new probe of cosmology and galaxy evolution [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 We study the Voronoi volume function (VVF) – the distribution of cell volumes (or inverse local number density) in the Voronoi tessellation of any set of cosmological tracers (galaxies/haloes).

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

Understanding Galaxy Evolution Through Emission Lines [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2019 We review the use of emission lines for understanding galaxy evolution, focusing on excitation source, metallicity, ionization parameter, ISM pressure, and electron density.

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

CEERS Key Paper. I. An Early Look into the First 500 Myr of Galaxy Formation with JWST [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022 We present an investigation into the first 500 Myr of galaxy evolution from the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) survey. CEERS, one of 13 JWST ERS programs, targets galaxy formation from z ∼ 0.5 to >10 using several imaging and ...

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

The evolution of galaxy sizes [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012 AbstractWe present a study of galaxy sizes in the local Universe as a function of galaxy environment, comparing clusters and the general field. Galaxies with radii and masses comparable to high-z massive and compact galaxies represent 4.4% of all galaxies more massive than 3 × 1010M⊙ in the field.

The 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.
