Exploring Asymmetric Substructures of the Outer Disk Based on the Conjugate Angle of the Radial Action

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We use the conjugate angle of radial action ( θ _R ), the best representation of the orbital phase, to explore the “midplane,” “north branch,” “south branch,” and “Monoceros area” disk structures that were previously revealed in the LAMOST K giants.

Dwarfs in Void Environments (DIVE): The Stellar Kinematics of Void Dwarf Galaxies Using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Dwarf galaxies located in extremely underdense cosmic voids are excellent test beds for disentangling the effects of large-scale environments on galaxy formation and evolution. We present the first results of the Dwarfs in Void Environments Survey, which

galkin: A new compilation of Milky Way rotation curve data

open access: yesSoftwareX, 2017
We present galkin, a novel compilation of kinematic measurements tracing the rotation curve of our Galaxy together with a tool to treat the data. The compilation is optimised to Galactocentric radii between 3 and 20 kpc and includes the kinematics of gas,

Translators of Galaxy Morphology Indicators between Observation and Simulation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Based on the recent advancements in numerical simulations of galaxy formation, we anticipate the achievement of realistic models of galaxies in the near future.

TREX: Kinematic Characterization of a High-dispersion Intermediate-age Stellar Component in M33

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The dwarf galaxy Triangulum (M33) presents an interesting testbed for studying stellar halo formation: it is sufficiently massive so as to have likely accreted smaller satellites, but also lies within the regime where feedback and other “in situ ...

TDCOSMO

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Spatially resolved stellar kinematics has become a key ingredient in time-delay cosmography to break the mass-sheet degeneracy in the mass profile and in turn provide a precise constraint on the Hubble constant and other cosmological parameters.

A group of merging galaxies falling into Abell 2142

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Galaxy clusters produce a very hostile environment for galaxies: their gas gets stripped by ram pressure, they undergo galaxy interactions, and their star formation is quenched.

The ORCA‐TWIN qCMOS Experiment I. Science Case and Commissioning at Calar Alto Observatory

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe a pilot study to explore a new generation of fast and low noise CMOS image sensors for time domain astronomy, using two remote telescopes with a baseline of 1635 km. The experiment involves direct imaging with novel qCMOS image sensor technology that combines fast readout with sub‐electron readout noise.

Investigation on tunnel stability considering pipe‐roof support with transparent soil technology

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study integrates transparent soil technology, 3D reconstruction and numerical simulation to captures the full‐field deformation of shield tunnel instability. Results demonstrate that pipe‐roof support enhances stability via the “soil‐arching barrier effect,” effectively restraining failure wedge development by extending stress transfer paths ...

Investigating the Kinematics of Central and Satellite Galaxies Using Normalizing Flows

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Galaxy clustering contains information on cosmology, galaxy evolution, and the relationship between galaxies and their dark matter hosts. On small scales, the detailed kinematics of galaxies within their host halos determines the galaxy clustering.
