Tidal Interaction of Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1978
In this paper we investigate the effect of weak tidal interactions among galaxies in clusters. We obtain the Fokker-Planck coefficients for this process by making use of the impulse approximation. We assume that the outer regions of a galaxy are well described by isotropically distributed stellar orbits with small angular momenta.

Bar-spheroid interaction in galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1992
The secular evolution of barred galaxies is explored using N-body simulation and linear analysis. In particular, we examine the interaction between bars and spheroidal components of galaxies. According to our calculations, this interaction drives secular transfer of angular momentum from bars to spheroids, primarily through resonant coupling.

A Multiwavelength Portrait of the 3C 220.3 Lensed System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The 3C 220.3 system is a rare case of a foreground narrow-line radio galaxy (“galaxy A,” z _A = 0.6850) lensing a background submillimeter galaxy ( z _SMG = 2.221).

A Multiwavelength Approach to Constraining the Merger Properties of ACT-CL J0034.4+0225

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
ACT-CL J0034.4+0225 is a previously unrecognized merging galaxy cluster at z = 0.38588 ± 0.00068. Our primary evidence is provided by a 21 ks Chandra image that shows two surface brightness peaks separated by ∼49″ (259 kpc) surrounded by an extended ...

Radio Diagnostics Of Galaxy Interactions [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999
The Hickson Compact Groups (Hickson 1982) are relatively isolated systems of galaxies with projected separations comparable to the diameters of the galaxies themselves and are an ideal laboratory for the study of the effects of interactions on the various properties of galaxies.

A Fast Radio Burst in a Compact Galaxy Group at z ∼ 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
FRB 20220610A is a high-redshift fast radio burst (FRB) that has not been observed to repeat. Here, we present rest-frame UV and optical Hubble Space Telescope observations of the field of FRB 20220610A. The imaging reveals seven extended sources, one of
