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.

The Galaxy Number Density Profile of Halos

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
More precise measurements of galaxy clustering will be provided by the next generation of galaxy surveys, such as DESI, WALLABY, and the Square Kilometre Array.

Studying the Patterns of the Universe

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2011
The SDSS galaxy catalog is one of the best databases for galaxy distribution studies. The SDSS DR8 data is used to construct the galaxy cluster catalog.

The Effect of the LMC on the Milky Way System

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
We review the recent theoretical and observational developments concerning the interaction of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) with the Milky Way and its neighbourhood.

The JWST PEARLS View of the El Gordo Galaxy Cluster and of the Structure It Magnifies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The massive galaxy cluster El Gordo ( z = 0.87) imprints multitudes of gravitationally lensed arcs onto James Webb Space Telescope Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) images.

Dark Matter Halo Properties of the Galactic Dwarf Satellites: Implication for Chemo-dynamical Evolution of the Satellites and a Challenge to Lambda Cold Dark Matter

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Elucidating dark matter density profiles in Galactic dwarf satellites is essential to understanding not only the quintessence of dark matter, but also the evolution of the satellites themselves.

Implications of the Milky Way Travel Velocity for Dynamical Mass Estimates of the Local Group

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
The total mass of the Local Group (LG) is a fundamental quantity that enables interpreting the orbits of its constituent galaxies and placing the LG in a cosmological context.

Galaxy Group Ellipticity Confirms a Younger Cosmos

open access: yesUniverse
We present an analysis of the ellipticities of galaxy groups, derived from the spatial distribution of member galaxies, revealing a notable incongruity between the observed local galaxy groups and their counterparts in the Lambda cold dark matter ...

Identification of Compact Groups of Galaxies in IllustrisTNG300

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We identify compact groups (CGs) of galaxies in an IllustrisTNG300 simulation using a friends-of-friends algorithm. Our approach is designed to be comparable to systematic CG searches based on spectroscopic surveys, while avoiding the conventional ...

COMPARISON OF OPTICAL AND X-RAY MASS ESTIMATES OF THE CHANDRA GALAXY CLUSTERS AT Z < 0.1

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2013
We used the optical data taken from SDSS DR7 galaxy and group catalog to determine the optical mass of 37 nearer Chandra galaxy clusters for comparison with the X-ray mass estimates.
