Dark matter mass loss in galaxy flybys: dependence on impact parameter [PDF]
Galaxy flybys, interactions where two independent halos inter-penetrate but detach at a later time and do not merge, occur frequently at lower redshifts.

The Environment of ``E+A'' Galaxies [PDF]
The violent star formation history of ``E+A'' galaxies and their detection almost exclusively in distant clusters is frequently used to link them to the ``Butcher-Oemler effect'' and to argue that cluster environment influences galaxy evolution.

We study galaxy pair samples selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-DR7) and we perform an analysis of minor and major mergers with the aim of investigating the dependence of galaxy properties on interactions. We build a galaxy pair catalog requiring rp < 25 kpc h-1 and Delta V < 350 km s-1 within redshift z<0.1. By visual inspection

FAST Reveals New Evidence for M94 as a Merger
We report the first high-sensitivity H i observation toward the spiral galaxy M94 with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope. From these observations, we discovered that M94 has a very extended H i disk, twice larger than that ...

Signatures of Galaxy-Cluster Interactions: Spiral Galaxy Rotation Curve Asymmetry, Shape, and Extent [PDF]
The environmental dependencies of the characteristics of spiral galaxy rotation curves are studied in this work. We use our large, homogeneously collected sample of 510 cluster spiral galaxy rotation curves to test the claim that the shape of a galaxy's ...

A Bayesian approach to the semi-analytic model of galaxy formation: methodology [PDF]
We believe that a wide range of physical processes conspire to shape the observed galaxy population but we remain unsure of their detailed interactions.

Galaxy Zoo: quantifying morphological indicators of galaxy interaction★ [PDF]
We use Galaxy Zoo 2 visual classifications to study the morphological signatures of interaction between similar-mass galaxy pairs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We find that many observable features correlate with projected pair separation; not only obvious indicators of merging, disturbance and tidal tails, but also more regular features, such as ...

Scale Interactions and Galaxy Evolution [PDF]
To understand galaxies and their evolution, it is necessary to describe how the different scales interact: how the microscopic physics, such as star formation, or the large scale physics, such as galaxy interactions may modify the galaxy global shapes.

The Progenitor of the Peculiar Galaxy NGC 3077
We present a study of the structural properties and metallicity distribution of the nearby peculiar galaxy NGC 3077. Using data from our survey of the M81 Group with the Hyper Suprime-Cam on board the Subaru Telescope, we construct deep color–magnitude ...

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): growing up in a bad neighbourhood - how do low-mass galaxies become passive? [PDF]
Both theoretical predictions and observations of the very nearby Universe suggest that low-mass galaxies (log$_{10}$[M$_{*}$/M$_{\odot}$]
