Galaxy groups in the presence of cosmological constant: Increasing the masses of groups

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
The boundaries of galaxy groups and clusters are defined by the interplay between the Newtonian attractive force and the decoupling from the local expansion of the Universe.

The Environment Of Galaxies And Groups Of Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes
In this thesis, we employ two numerical tools - semi-\ud analytical models and N-body plus hydrodynamical simulations of large scale structure and individual galaxies - to explore the underlying physics governing the formation and evolution of groups of galaxies, and the role of environment in generating polar structures around disk galaxies.\ud \ud ...

A Census of Compact Elliptical Galaxies in the Coma Cluster

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Compact elliptical (cE) galaxies are compact stellar systems with stellar masses of 10 ^8 ≤ M _* / M _⊙ ≤ 10 ^10 and radii typically

A Massive Quiescent Galaxy in a Group Environment at z = 4.53

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report on the spectroscopic confirmation of a massive quiescent galaxy at z _spec = 4.53 in the COSMOS field. The object was first identified as a galaxy with suppressed star formation at z _phot ∼ 4.65 from the COSMOS2020 catalog.

The statistical lensing of QSOs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We use the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey, to investigate whether QSOs are detectably gravitationally lensed. Lensing could magnify and distort light from QSOs, influencing QSO numbers near galaxies, which trace structure in our Universe. Following Boyle, Fong &

The Cosmic Ultraviolet Baryon Survey (CUBS). VIII. Group Environment of the Most Luminous Quasars at z ≈ 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the group-scale environment of 15 luminous quasars (luminosity L _3000 > 10 ^46 erg s ^−1 ) from the Cosmic Ultraviolet Baryon Survey (CUBS) at redshift z ≈ 1.

The Intracluster Light Analysis of the Most Evolved Systems of Galaxies: Fossil Groups

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present the analysis of the intracluster light (ICL) in three fossil groups, RX J085640.72+055347.36, RX J1136+0713, and RX J1410+4145, at z ∼ 0.1. We used two optical broadband filters, F435W and F606W, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope, and ...

Galaxy evolution as a function of mass and environment: giant and dwarf galaxies in superclusters and in the field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
It has been known for decades that local galaxies can be broadly divided into two distinct populations (e.g. Hubble 1926, 1936; Morgan 1958; de Vaucouleurs 1961).

Orthogonal Alignment of Galaxy Group Angular Momentum with Cosmic Filament Spines: An Observational Study

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We investigated the alignment between the angular momenta of galaxy groups and the spines of their associated cosmic filaments. Our results demonstrate a significant tendency for these two orientations to be perpendicular, indicating that the rotation of
