UGC 7639: A Dwarf Galaxy in the Canes Venatici I Cloud

Advances in Astronomy, 2015
We want to get insight into the formation mechanism and the evolution of UGC 7639, a dwarf galaxy in the Canes Venatici I Cloud (CVnIC). We used archival multiwavelength data to constrain its global properties. Ultraviolet images show that UGC 7639 inner

Evidence for multiple crossings and stripping of Gaia-Enceladus/Sausage across the Milky Way

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The accretion of Gaia-Enceladus/Sausage (GES) onto the Milky Way (MW) is one of the most prominent features of the Galactic halo revealed by the combination of the Gaia satellite and large spectroscopic surveys.

THE EVOLUTION OF STAR FORMATION HISTORIES OF QUIESCENT GALAXIES [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT Although there has been much progress in understanding how galaxies evolve, we still do not understand how and when they stop forming stars and become quiescent. We address this by applying our galaxy spectral energy distribution models, which incorporate physically motivated star formation histories ...

Continuum Robots in Surgery: From Engineering Design to Clinical Practice

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
The hyper‐redundant nature of continuum robot structures enables near‐infinite degrees of freedom leading to immense potential for medical applications. This review provides a historical background of continuum robots and novel ideas shaping their progress to current structural design, sensing technology, modeling techniques, and control methods.

Formation and Evolution of E+A Galaxies in Dusty Starburst Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal, 2001
The formation and evolution of the ``E+A'' (also named ``k+a'' and ``a+k'' types by Dressler et al. 1999) galaxies found in significant numbers in the cores of intermediate redshift clusters has been extensively discussed by many authors. In this paper, we model the spectral, dynamical and morphological evolution of a prime candidate for producing this

Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum for Image Analysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum (SHWB), a rotation‐ and translation‐invariant descriptor that captures higher‐order (phase) correlations in signals, is introduced. Combining wavelet scattering, bispectral analysis, and group theory, SHWB achieves interpretable, data‐efficient representations and demonstrates competitive performance across texture,

Electronics‐Free Visual Monitoring of Dry Eye Disease‐Related Tear Biomarkers Using Smart Scleral Lenses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An electronics‐free smart scleral lens passively monitors dry eye disease‐related tear biomarkers through colorimetric sensing of chloride, pH, and ocular surface temperature. Smartphone‐assisted image analysis enables quantitative interpretation, providing a simple, non‐invasive strategy for ocular health monitoring without integrated electronics ...

Models of Late-type Disk Galaxies: 1-D Versus 2-D

Open Astronomy, 2014
We investigate the effects of stochasticity on the observed galaxy parameters by comparing our stochastic star formation two-dimensional (2-D) galaxy evolution models with the commonly used one-dimensional (1-D) models with smooth star formation. The 2-D

The “Building Blocks” of Stellar Halos

Galaxies, 2017
The stellar halos of galaxies encode their accretion histories. In particular, the median metallicity of a halo is determined primarily by the mass of the most massive accreted object.
