Near-IR TRGB Distance to Nearby Dwarf Irregular Galaxy NGC 6822 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008
We report the distance modulus of nearby dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 estimated from the so-called Tip of Red-giant Branch (TRGB) method. To detect the apparent magnitudes of the TRGB we use the color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) and luminosity functions

Massive stars in the Sagittarius Dwarf Irregular Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Low metallicity massive stars hold the key to interpret numerous processes in the past Universe including re-ionization, starburst galaxies, high-redshift supernovae and GRBs.

Outlier Detection in the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present an unsupervised search for outliers in the Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS) data set from the DESI Early Data Release. This analysis utilizes an autoencoder to compress galaxy spectra into a compact, redshift-invariant latent space, and a ...

Solo dwarfs I: survey introduction and first results for the Sagittarius dwarf irregular galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We introduce the Solitary Local Dwarfs Survey (Solo), a wide field photometric study targeting every isolated dwarf galaxy within 3 Mpc of the Milky Way.

Searches for Extremely Metal-poor Galaxies Using Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA–Selected Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a study of nearby dwarf galaxies selected from the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) blind H i survey. A primary goal of the project was to utilize a nonstandard selection method with the hope of detecting previously unrecognized extremely ...

A state-of-the-art analysis of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present a detailed photometric study of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 aimed at investigating the properties of its stellar populations and, in particular, the presence of stellar radial gradients.

Disk Galaxies Are Self-similar: The Universality of the H i-to-Halo Mass Ratio for Isolated Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Observed scaling relations in galaxies between baryons and dark matter global properties are key to shed light on the process of galaxy formation and on the nature of dark matter.

Dark Matter and the Chemical Evolution of Irregular Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We present three types of chemical evolution models for irregular galaxies: closed-box with continuous star formation rates (SFRs), closed-box with bursting SFRs, and O-rich outflow with continuous SFRs. We discuss the chemical evolution of the irregular
