Massive Quiescent Disk Galaxies at 0.5 ≤ z ≤ 1 in CANDELS: Color Gradients and Likely Origin
The Astrophysical JournalA rare population of massive disk-dominated quiescent galaxies has recently drawn much attention, which intrudes the red sequence (RS) population without destroying the underlying stellar disks.

Probabilistic Forward Modeling of Galaxy Catalogs with Normalizing Flows
The Astronomical JournalEvaluating the accuracy and calibration of the redshift posteriors produced by photometric redshift (photo- z ) estimators is vital for enabling precision cosmology and extragalactic astrophysics with modern wide-field photometric surveys.

IllustrisTNG in the HSC-SSP: No Shortage of Thin Disk Galaxies in TNG50
The Astrophysical JournalWe perform a thorough analysis of the projected shapes of nearby galaxies in both observations and cosmological simulations. We implement a forward-modeling approach to overcome the limitations in previous studies, which hinder accurate comparisons ...

Data-space Validation of High-dimensional Models by Comparing Sample Quantiles
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesWe present a simple method for assessing the predictive performance of high-dimensional models directly in data space when only samples are available.

On the Stellar Disk Vertical Scale Height of Edge-on Galaxies from S4G
The Astrophysical JournalDisk galaxies viewed as thin planar structures resulting from the conservation of angular momentum of an initially rotating pregalactic cloud allow merely a first-order model of galaxy formation, but the presence of vertically extended structures has ...

A Study of the Merging Dwarf Galaxy VCC322
The Astrophysical JournalGalaxy interactions and mergers can enhance or reduce star formation, but a complete understanding of the involved processes is still lacking. The effect of dwarf galaxy mergers is even less clear than their massive counterpart.
