A Closer Look at the Extended Edge-on Low-surface Brightness Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
To understand the origin of extended disks of low-surface brightness (LSB) galaxies, we studied in detail four such systems with large disks seen edge on. Two of them are edge-on giant LSB galaxies (gLSBGs) recently identified by our team.

The transformation of Spirals into S0 galaxies in the cluster environment

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2015
We discuss the observational evidences of the morphological transformation of Spirals into S0 galaxies in the cluster environment exploiting two big databases of galaxy clusters: WINGS (0 ...

The origin of pseudobulges in cosmological simulations of galaxy formation

, 2012
More than half of nearby disc galaxies have pseudobulges instead of classical bulges that are though to be end-products of galaxy mergers. Pseudobulges are presumed to develop overtime as a result of secular evolution of galaxy discs.

Attitudes and behaviours of consumers towards plant‐based yoghurt alternatives: a cross‐cultural study

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Increased awareness of sustainable food production and vegan, vegetarian and flexitarian diets are driving the growth in dairy substitutes, particularly plant‐based yoghurts. To understand consumer perception or mind‐set and facilitate adoption of plant‐based yoghurt products, a multi‐phase study using both qualitative and ...

The Heavy Metal Survey: The Evolution of Stellar Metallicities, Abundance Ratios, and Ages of Massive Quiescent Galaxies since z ∼ 2

The Astrophysical Journal
We present the elemental abundances and ages of 19 massive quiescent galaxies at z ∼ 1.4 and z ∼ 2.1 from the Keck Heavy Metal Survey. The ultradeep LRIS and MOSFIRE spectra were modeled using a full-spectrum stellar population fitting code with variable

The edge of the Milky Way’s star-forming disc: Evidence from a ’U-shaped’ stellar age profile

Astronomy & Astrophysics
We leveraged reliable age and distance estimates from LAMOST-DR3 and APOGEE-DR17+AstroNN combined with Gaia data to perform a detailed analysis of the stellar age distribution in the Milky Way’s (MW) outer disc using giant stars. Selecting stars near the

Germanium‐Based Mid‐Infrared Integrated Photonics

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The mid‐infrared (mid‐IR) spectral range is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum in which most of the molecules have vibrational and rotational resonances. Photonics integration in this wavelength range have thus seen a burst of interest in the recent years, mainly driven by applications related with the detection of chemical and biological ...

UNCOVER: The Rest-ultraviolet to Near-infrared Multiwavelength Structures and Dust Distributions of Submillimeter-detected Galaxies in A2744

The Astrophysical Journal
With the wavelength coverage, sensitivity, and high spatial resolution of JWST, it is now possible to peer through the dust attenuation to probe the rest-frame near-infrared (NIR) and stellar structures of extremely dusty galaxies at cosmic noon ( z  ∼ 1−

Formation of galaxies

Nuclear Physics B, 1985
Abstract The present theories of galaxy formation are reviewed. The relation between peculiar velocities and the correlation function of galaxies points to the possibility that galaxies do not form uniformly everywhere. Scale invariant properties of the cluster-cluster correlations are discussed. Comparing the correlation functions in a dimensionless

Patterns of wild meat and other protein consumption in the periphery of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In Central Africa, human activities are severely impacting terrestrial and aquatic wildlife, threatening the food security of millions of people. Accordingly, sustainable use of wildlife is crucial for the nutrition and livelihoods of many rural communities in the region.
