The Structures of Distant Galaxies - IV: A New Empirical Measurement of the Time-Scale for Galaxy Mergers - Implications for the Merger History [PDF]
, 2009 Understanding the role of mergers in galaxy formation is one of the most outstanding problems in extragalactic astronomy. While we now have an idea for how the merger fraction evolves at redshifts z < 3, converting this merger fraction into merger rates, and therefore how many mergers an average galaxy undergoes during its history, is still uncertain ...

Signatures of Massive Black Hole Merger Host Galaxies from Cosmological Simulations I: Unique Galaxy Morphologies in Imaging [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Low-frequency gravitational wave experiments such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna and pulsar timing arrays are expected to detect individual massive black hole (MBH) binaries and mergers. However, secure methods of identifying the exact host galaxy of each MBH merger amongst the large number of galaxies in the gravitational wave localization ...

Night‐Time Curfew, Day‐Time Masks
Anthropology and Humanism, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 409-415, December 2022., 2022 SUMMARY In this narrative, I offer a lightly fictionalized version of my experience returning to Kenya from the United States to conduct fieldwork from late 2020 through mid‐2021, a period when the COVID‐19 pandemic was ravaging globally. My narrative reveals how local people draw on their knowledge of the corrupt police system to resist COVID‐19 ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Large multidimensional digital images of cancer tissue are becoming prolific, but many challenges exist to automatically extract relevant information from them using computational tools. We describe publicly available resources that have been developed jointly by expert and non‐expert computational biologists working together during a virtual hackathon

On the lifetime of merger features of equal-mass disk mergers [PDF]
, 2014 Detecting post-merger features of merger remnants is highly dependent on the depth of observation images. However, it has been poorly discussed how long the post-merger features are visible under different observational conditions. We investigate a merger-feature time useful for understanding the morphological transformation of galaxy mergers via ...

Deep MOS Spectroscopy of NGC 1316 Globular Clusters
Galaxies, 2017 The giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 is the brightest galaxy in the Fornax cluster, and displays a number of morphological features that might be interpreted as an intermediate age merger remanent (∼3 Gyr).

Mimicking Symmetry‐Breaking Einstein Ring by Optical Lens
Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.This article uses an optical lens to emulate the gravitational lensing effect and observe the Einstein ring (ER) patterns. The symmetry‐breaking ER, i.e., Einstein cross, is observed utilizing a rotation‐symmetry‐breaking hemi‐ellipsoid lens. Deformed Einstein cross patterns induced by noncollinearly alignment of the light source–lens–observer are ...
