Galaxy pairs in the Local Group [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2013
Abstract Current models of galaxy formation predict that galaxy pairs of comparable magnitudes should become increasingly rare with decreasing luminosity. This seems at odds with the relatively high frequency of pairings among dwarf galaxies in the Local Group. We use literature data to show that ∼30 per cent of all the satellites of the

Infall of galaxies onto groups [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
Context.The growth of the structure within the Universe manifests in the form of accretion flows of galaxies onto groups and clusters. Thus, the present-day properties of groups and their member galaxies are influenced by the characteristics of this continuous infall pattern.

Halo ellipticity of GAMA galaxy groups from KiDS weak lensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We constrain the average halo ellipticity of ~2 600 galaxy groups from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey, using the weak gravitational lensing signal measured from the overlapping Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS).

On the common nature of dark matter and dark energy: Galaxy groups [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal Plus, 2017
.It is shown that the cosmological constant links the roots both of General Relativity and Newtonian gravity via the general function satisfying Newton’s theorem according to which the gravitating sphere acts as a point mass situated in its center.

Reionization of the Local Group of galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2011
We present the first detailed structure formation and radiative transfer simulations of the reionization history of our cosmic neighbourhood. To this end, we follow the formation of the Local Group of galaxies and nearby clusters by means of constrained simulations, which use the available observational constraints to construct a representation of ...

Iron in galaxy groups and clusters: confronting galaxy evolution models with a newly homogenized data set [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present an analysis of the iron abundance in the hot gas surrounding galaxy groups and clusters. To do this, we first compile and homogenize a large data set of 79 low-redshift (z = 0.03) systems (159 individual measurements) from the literature.

Galaxy Quenching with Mass Growth History of Galaxy Groups and Clusters: The Importance of Post-processing

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigate the fraction of quenched satellite galaxies in host galaxy groups and clusters using TNG300 in the IllustrisTNG cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulations.

Galaxy And Mass Assembly: search for a population of high-entropy galaxy groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Observations with the ChandraX-ray Observatory are used to examine the hot gas properties within a sample of 10 galaxy groups selected from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly survey's optical Friends-of-Friends group catalogue. Our groups have been screened to

A statistical study of the luminosity gap in galaxy groups

open access: yes, 2010
The luminosity gap between the two brightest members of galaxy groups and clusters is thought to offer a strong test for the models of galaxy formation and evolution.

First results of the XI Groups Project: Studying an unbiased sample of galaxy groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
X-ray observations of hot, intergalactic gas in galaxy groups provide a useful means of characterizing the global properties of groups. However, X-ray studies of large group samples have typically involved very shallow X-ray exposures or have been based ...
