The Origin and Evolution of Giant Radio Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Giant radio galaxies are arguably the least understood of jetted active galactic nuclei (AGN). We propose that radio galaxies are the product of large mergers that do not involve radio galaxies or radio quasars, such as in merging spiral galaxies, while ...

ENVIRONMENT DENSITY OF A GIANT RADIO STRUCTURE FOR GALAXIES AND QUASARS WITH STEEP RADIO SPECTRA [PDF]

open access: yesRadio Physics and Radio Astronomy, 2021
Purpose: Estimate of the environment density of giant (with the linear size of about megaparsec) radio structures for galaxies and quasars with steep low-frequency spectra taken from the UTR-2 catalogue. Study of the cosmological evolution of environment

UV-bright Star-forming Clumps and Their Host Galaxies in UVCANDELS at 0.5 ≤ z ≤ 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Giant star-forming clumps are a prominent feature of star-forming galaxies (SFGs) and contain important clues on galaxy formation and evolution. However, the basic demographics of clumps and their host galaxies remain uncertain.

Post-AGB Stars as Tracers of AGB Nucleosynthesis: An Update

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
The chemical evolution of galaxies is governed by the chemical yields from stars, and here we focus on the important contributions from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. AGB nucleosynthesis is, however, still riddled with complexities.

Cosmic ray acceleration to ultrahigh energy in radio galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
The origin of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) is an open question. In this proceeding, we first review the general physical requirements that a source must meet for acceleration to 10-100 EeV, including the consideration that the shock is not ...

Quenching of Massive Disk Galaxies in the IllustrisTNG Simulation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
A rare population of massive disk galaxies have been found to invade the red sequence dominated by early-type galaxies. The formation and origins of these red/quenched massive disk galaxies have recently gained great interest.

The Hβ Index and the Ages of Old Stellar Systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998
The Hβ and some metal line indices, such as Mg2, Fe52, Fe53 of single-age and single-metallicity populations are computed based on the method of evolutionary population synthesis, with careful consideration of the variation of the horizontal-branch ...

UV Visibility of Moderate-Redshift Giant Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998
We show quantitatively whether giant elliptical galaxies would be visible at far UV wavelengths if they were placed at moderate redshift of 0.4-0.5. On the basis of simple cosmological tests, we conclude that giant elliptical galaxies can be detectable ...

JWST Identification of Extremely Low C/N Galaxies with [N/O] ≳ 0.5 at z ∼ 6–10 Evidencing the Early CNO-cycle Enrichment and a Connection with Globular Cluster Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present chemical abundance ratios of 70 star-forming galaxies at z ∼ 4–10 observed by the JWST/NIRSpec Early Release Observations, GLASS, and CEERS programs.

Population Synthesis Models for Normal Galaxies with Dusty Disks [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2003
To investigate the SEDs of galaxies considering the dust extinction processes in the galactic disks, we present the population synthesis models for normal galaxies with dusty disks. We use PEGASE (Fioc & Rocca-Volmerange 1997) to model them with standard
