Genuine Irregular Galaxies as a Relic of Building Blocks of Galaxies

open access: yes, 2013
In order to understand nature of building blocks of galaxies in the early universe, we investigate "genuine irregular galaxies (GIGs)" in the nearby universe. Here, GIGs are defined as isolated galaxies without regular structures (spheroid, bulge, disk, bar, spiral arm, and nucleus). Using the results of two excellent studies on galaxy morphology based

A γ-Ray-emitting Collisional Ring Galaxy System in Our Galactic Neighborhood

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The astrophysical γ -ray photons carry the signatures of the violent phenomena happening on various astronomical scales in our Universe. This includes supernova remnants, pulsars, and pulsar wind nebulae in the Galactic environment and extragalactic ...

The Hot and Energetic Universe:The evolution of galaxy groups and clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Major astrophysical questions related to the formation and evolution of structures, and more specifically of galaxy groups and clusters, will still be open in the coming decade and beyond: what is the interplay of galaxy, supermassive black hole, and ...

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) : galaxy close pairs, mergers and the future fate of stellar mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
ASGR acknowledges STFC and SUPA funding that were used to do this work. GAMA is funded by the STFC (UK), the ARC (Australia), the AAO and the participating institutions.We use a highly complete subset of the Galaxy And Mass Assembly II (GAMA-II) redshift

Galaxy Morphological Classification with Zernike Moments and Machine Learning Approaches

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Classifying galaxies is an essential step for studying their structures and dynamics. Using GalaxyZoo2 (GZ2) fractions thresholds, we collect 545 and 11,735 samples in nongalaxy and galaxy classes, respectively.

Interstellar gas motions around massive star formation regions in the nearby dwarf galaxy DDO43

open access: yesActa Polytechnica
Areas of massive star formation are strongly influenced by stellar winds and supernovae, therefore, enhanced turbulent flows are expected. We analyse high-quality Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array observations of the neutral hydrogen gas content of DDO43,

Constraining dark energy using real and mock galaxy surveys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this thesis, we study how dark energy may be constrained by measurements of large-scale clustering in future galaxy surveys, and through the imprint of a time-varying large-scale potential on the CMB (the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect).

A Luminous X-Ray Active Galactic Nucleus in the Dwarf–Dwarf Galaxy Merger RGG 66

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the discovery of a luminous X-ray active galactic nucleus (AGN) in the dwarf galaxy merger RGG 66. The black hole is predicted to have a mass of M _BH ∼ 10 ^5.4 M _⊙ and to be radiating close to its Eddington limit ( L _bol / L _Edd ∼ 0.75 ...

Assessing Galaxy Rotation Kinematics: Insights from Convolutional Neural Networks on Velocity Variations

open access: yesUniverse
Distinguishing galaxies as either fast or slow rotators plays a vital role in understanding the processes behind galaxy formation and evolution. Standard techniques, which are based on the λR spin parameter obtained from stellar kinematics, frequently ...
