THE LARSON-TINSLEY EFFECT IN THE ULTRAVIOLET: INTERACTING VERSUS “NORMAL” SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2010
We compare the UV-optical colors of a well-defined set of optically-selected pre-merger interacting galaxy pairs with those of normal spirals. The shorter wavelength colors show a larger dispersion for the interacting galaxies than for the spirals.

Probing the physics of interacting galaxies [PDF]

open access: greenAstrophysics and Space Science, 2003
Both Arp 140 and Arp 104 reveal extended tidal tails in the HI. The Halpha and FIR fluxes of Arp 140 yield similar SFR of ~0.8 solar masses per year. In contrast the Halpha flux of Arp 104 yields a SFR of ~0.05 solar masses per year, ~ 20 times smaller than that obtained from the FIR flux.

Galaxy Zoo: Mergers – Dynamical models of interacting galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016
The dynamical history of most merging galaxies is not well understood. Correlations between galaxy interaction and star formation have been found in previous studies, but require the context of the physical history of merging systems for full insight into the processes that lead to enhanced star formation.

A Self-interacting Dark Matter Solution to the Extreme Diversity of Low-mass Halo Properties [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The properties of low-mass dark matter (DM) halos appear to be remarkably diverse relative to cold, collisionless DM predictions, even in the presence of baryons.

The NGC 1614 interacting galaxy [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2013
Minor mergers frequently occur between giant and gas-rich low-mass galaxies and can provide significant amounts of interstellar matter to refuel star formation and power active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the giant systems.

Interacting galaxies and mergers

open access: greenNature Astronomy, 2019
Two landmark papers in the 1970s contributed strongly to establishing the importance of galaxy interactions and mergers in the formation and evolution of galaxies, using only gravity, and the ensuing dynamical friction.

THE INTERACTING GALAXY PAIR KPG 390: Hα KINEMATICS [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2010
In this work, we present scanning Fabry–Perot (FP) Hα observations of the isolated interacting galaxy pair NGC 5278/79 obtained with the PUMA FP interferometer. We derived velocity fields and rotation curves for both galaxies.

A massive interacting galaxy 510 million years after the Big Bang [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2023
James Webb Space Telescope observations have spectroscopically confirmed the existence of galaxies as early as 300 Myr after the Big Bang and with a higher number density than what was expected based on galaxy formation models and Hubble Space Telescope ...

Confronting self-interacting neutrinos with the full shape of the galaxy power spectrum [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2023
A cosmological scenario in which the onset of neutrino free streaming in the early Universe is delayed until close to the epoch of matter-radiation equality has been shown to provide a good fit to some cosmic microwave background (CMB) data, while being ...

Self-interacting dark matter and small-scale gravitational lenses in galaxy clusters [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2021
Recently, Meneghetti et al. reported an excess of small-scale gravitational lenses in galaxy clusters. We study its implications for self-interacting dark matter (SIDM), compared with standard cold dark matter (CDM).
