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.

Continuum Robots in Surgery: From Engineering Design to Clinical Practice

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
The hyper‐redundant nature of continuum robot structures enables near‐infinite degrees of freedom leading to immense potential for medical applications. This review provides a historical background of continuum robots and novel ideas shaping their progress to current structural design, sensing technology, modeling techniques, and control methods.

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

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.
