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.

The Role of AGN in Luminous Infrared Galaxies from the Multiwavelength Perspective

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Galaxy mergers provide a mechanism for galaxies to effectively funnel gas and materials toward their nuclei and fuel the central starbursts and accretion of supermassive black holes.

Modelling ISO Galaxy Counts with Luminosity and Merger Rate Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We model galaxy evolution in the 6.75 and 15 micron passbands of the ISO satellite, by combining models of galaxy evolution at optical wavelengths (which are consistent with the optical galaxy counts) with observed spectral energy distributions in the ...

A Chandra X-Ray Survey of Optically Selected Close Galaxy Pairs: Unexpectedly Low Occupation of Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
High-resolution X-ray observations offer a unique tool for probing the still-elusive connection between galaxy mergers and active galactic nuclei (AGNs).

Galaxy Zoo: quantifying morphological indicators of galaxy interaction★ [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012
We use Galaxy Zoo 2 visual classifications to study the morphological signatures of interaction between similar-mass galaxy pairs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We find that many observable features correlate with projected pair separation; not only obvious indicators of merging, disturbance and tidal tails, but also more regular features, such as ...

EESSI: A cross‐platform ready‐to‐use optimised scientific software stack

open access: yesSoftware: Practice and Experience, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 176-210, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Getting scientific software installed correctly and ensuring it performs well has been a ubiquitous problem for several decades now, which is compounded currently by the changing landscape of computational science with the (re‐)emergence of different microprocessor families, and the expansion to additional scientific domains like artificial ...

MOSEL Survey: JWST Reveals Major Mergers/strong Interactions Drive the Extreme Emission Lines in the Early Universe

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Extreme emission line galaxies (EELGs), where nebular emissions contribute 30%–40% of the flux in certain photometric bands, are ubiquitous in the early Universe ( z > 6).

Galaxy Interactions: The Hi Signature [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999
HI observations are an excellent tool for investigating tidal interactions. Ongoing major and minor interactions which can lead to traumatic mergers or to accretion and the triggering of star formation, show distinct HI signatures. Interactions and mergers in the recent past can also be recognized in the HI structure and kinematics.

Star Formation Enhancement in Barred Disk Galaxies in Interacting Galaxy Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A recent study shows that bars can be induced via interaction of galaxy clusters, but it has been unclear if the bar formation by the interaction between clusters is related to the enhancement of star formation. We study galaxies in 105 galaxy clusters at $0.015
