GEMINI SPECTROSCOPIC SURVEY OF YOUNG STAR CLUSTERS IN MERGING/INTERACTING GALAXIES. IV. STEPHAN's QUINTET [PDF]
We present a spectroscopic survey of 21 young massive clusters and complexes and one tidal dwarf galaxy (TDG) candidate in Stephan's Quintet, an interacting compact group of galaxies.

ABSTRACT Classification of galaxies, stars, and quasars using spectral data is fundamental to astronomy, but often relies heavily on redshift. This study evaluates the performance of 10 machine learning algorithms on SDSS data to classify these objects, with a particular focus on scenarios where redshift information is unavailable.

Galaxies are thought to grow through star formation or by interacting with each other. To understand which process dominates, we investigated the contribution of major mergers to the galaxy mass assembly across cosmic time.

Galaxy Harassment—Interactions for the 90s [PDF]
The origin of the Hubble sequence remains a long-standing puzzle in astronomy. Giant galaxies range from slowly-rotating dense ellipticals to thin late-type spiral disks. At the faint end, there are two distinct classes of “ellipticals/spheroids” that are easily separated in plots of nearly any two of their properties, such as central surface ...

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF TIDAL FEATURES OF INTERACTING DISK GALAXIES: THREE-DIMENSIONAL SELF-CONSISTENT MODELS [PDF]
Using self-consistent three-dimensional (3D) N-body simulations, we investigate the physical properties of nonaxisymmetric features in a disk galaxy created by a tidal interaction with its companion. The primary galaxy consists of a stellar disk, a bulge,

Exploring Dark Photon Production and Kinetic Mixing Constraints in Heavy‐Ion Collisions
ABSTRACT Vector U‐bosons, often referred to as “dark photons,” are potential candidates for mediating dark matter interactions. In this study, we outline a procedure to derive theoretical constraints on the upper bound of the kinetic mixing parameter ϵ2MU$$ {\upvarepsilon}^2\left({M}_U\right) $$ using dilepton data from heavy‐ion from SIS to RHIC ...

Evolution of Galaxies Through Their Interactions [PDF]
We investigated how the encounters between galaxies change their mass M and velocity dispersion σ. We carried out a series of direct N-body simulation of encounters of two spherical galaxies. In Figure 1, the relative change of energy ΔE/E are plotted against that of mass ΔM/M for various initial conditions.

Dark Energy From the Gravitational Wave Background With Scalar Field Dark Matter
ABSTRACT Recent observational results, such as those from pulsar timing arrays (PTA), suggest a low‐frequency Gravitational Wave Background (GWB) permeates our universe. This opens the possibility that gravitational waves could span a broader spectrum, potentially impacting cosmological scales.

Magnetic field evolution in interacting galaxies [PDF]
Aims. Violent gravitational interactions can change the morphologies of galaxies and, by means of merging, transform them into elliptical galaxies. We aim to investigate how they affect the evolution of galactic magnetic fields. Methods.

Staphylococcus aureus AgrA Modulators From South African Antimicrobial Plants
The study workflow utilized validated in silico [molecular docking, fingerprinting, pharmacokinetics prediction, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, ligand‐protein contact maps] tools to bioprospect a wide variety of metabolites surveyed from South African plants with antimicrobial activities, and target them against the key S.
