Outlier Detection in the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey
The 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 ...

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

Pavo: Discovery of a Star-forming Dwarf Galaxy Just Outside the Local Group
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We report the discovery of Pavo, a faint ( M _V = −10.0), star-forming, irregular, and extremely isolated dwarf galaxy at D ≈ 2 Mpc. Pavo was identified in Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey imaging via a novel approach that combines low surface brightness

DWARF IRREGULAR GALAXY LEO A: SUPRIME-CAM WIDE-FIELD STELLAR PHOTOMETRY [PDF]
, 2014 We have surveyed a complete extent of Leo A—an apparently isolated gas-rich low-mass dwarf irregular galaxy in the Local Group. The B, V, and I passband CCD images (typical seeing ∼0.″8) were obtained with the Subaru Telescope equipped with the Suprime ...

Modelling H i distribution and kinematics in the edge-on dwarf irregular galaxy KK250 [PDF]
, 2014 We model the observed vertical distribution of the neutral hydrogen (HI) in the faint (MB 13:7 mag) edge-on dwarf irregular galaxy KK250. Our model assumes that the galaxy consists of axi-symmetric, co-planar gas and stellar discs in the external force ...
