Usage of the term provenance in LIS literature: An Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST) paper

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Provenance is the story of how something has come to be. In this paper, we provide a systematic literature review to categorize the various notions of provenance in Information Sciences. The goal of this review is to paint a broader picture of the multiple uses of provenance at play and to enhance our understanding of the importance of ...

Star Formation and Galaxy Environment [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2000
The dependence of star formation rate on galaxian environment is a key issue in the understanding of galaxy formation and evolution. However, the study of this subject is complex and observationally challenging. This paper reviews some of the current results, drawing mostly from recent large redshift surveys such the LCRS, the MORPH collaboration, and ...

Redshift‐Agnostic Machine Learning Classification: Unveiling Peak Performance in Galaxy, Star, and Quasar Classification (Using SDSS DR17)

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classification of galaxies, stars, and quasars using spectral data is fundamental to astronomy, but often relies heavily on redshift. This study evaluates the performance of 10 machine learning algorithms on SDSS data to classify these objects, with a particular focus on scenarios where redshift information is unavailable.

Luminosity function of binary X-ray sources calculated using the Scenario Machine

open access: yes, 2007
Using the ``Scenario Machine'' we have carried out a population synthesis of X-ray binaries for the purpose of modelling of X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) in different types of galaxies: star burst, spiral, and elliptical. This computer code allows to

A Slowly Pulsating Run‐Away B Star at High Galactic Latitude Ejected From a Spiral Arm

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report the discovery of the young B6 V run‐away star LAMOST J083323.18 + 430825.4, 2.5 kpc above the Galactic plane. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined from LAMOST spectra, indicating normal composition. Effective temperature (Teff$$ {T}_{\mathrm{eff}} $$ = 14,500$$ \mathrm{14,500} $$ K) and gravity (logg ...

H2 MAGIE: H2 as a Major Agent to Galaxy Interaction and Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
Spitzer space telescope spectroscopy reveal a new class of H2-luminous galaxies with enhanced H2 line emission, but where star formation is strongly suppressed. This is in sharp contrast with what is observed in standard star forming galaxies. These sources are all in active phases of galaxy evolution (galaxy interactions, AGN feedback, gas accretion ...

On the Age Distribution of Classical Cepheids in the Galaxy

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We revisit the problem of the positive correlation between age and Galactocentric distance seen in Galactic Classical Cepheids, which at first sight may seem counter‐intuitive in the context of inside‐out galaxy formation. To explain it, we use the Besançon Galaxy Model and a simulation of star particles in the Galactic disc coupled with ...

Evolution of the star formation efficiency in galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012
AbstractThe physical and chemical evolution of galaxies is intimately linked to star formation, We present evidence that molecular gas (H2) is transformed into stars more quickly in smaller and/or subsolar metallicity galaxies than in large spirals – which we consider to be equivalent to a star formation efficiency (SFE).
