Continuous Filament Network of the Local Universe

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Simulated galaxy distributions are suitable for developing filament detection algorithms. However, samples of observed galaxies, being of limited size, cause difficulties that lead to a discontinuous distribution of filaments.

Galaxy Zoo:dust in spiral galaxies [PDF]

, 2010
We investigate the effect of dust on spiral galaxies by measuring the inclination dependence of optical colours for 24 276 well-resolved Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies visually classified via the Galaxy Zoo project.

Angular momenta of late-type spiral galaxies [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970
The angular momenta of galaxies may be evaluated from their photometry. The mass to light ratio in NGC 224 is discussed and the calculation is applied to two late-type spirals.

Early assembly of the most massive galaxies [PDF]

, 2009
The current consensus is that galaxies begin as small density fluctuations in the early Universe and grow by in situ star formation and hierarchical merging(1).

Magnetic fields in late-type galaxies [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1993
Magnitudes of the volume-averaged magnetic field have been derived for a representative sample of 146 late-type galaxies using the minimum-energy condition and a simple model for the distribution of radio-emitting plasma within these galaxies. The distribution of derived magnetic fields is narrow (B eq = 0.29 ± 0.11 nT) and skewed to higher values ...

Morphological Distribution of Galaxies in Some Nearby Clusters

Open Astronomy, 2019
We study the morphological distribution of galaxies in some nearby clusters, using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey – Data Release 9 (SDSS-DR9). The segregation between early-type galaxies and late-type ones is investigated in g – r / u – g color space ...

A search for the most massive galaxies: double trouble? [PDF]

, 2005
We describe the results of a search for galaxies with large ({approx}> 350 kms{sup -1}) velocity dispersions. The largest systems we have found appear to be the extremes of the early-type galaxy population: compared to other galaxies with similar ...

Age-density relation of Main galaxies at fixed parameters or for different galaxy families

Open Physics, 2015
Using two volume-limited Main galaxy samples of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 10 (SDSS DR10), we examine the environmental dependence of galaxy age at fixed parameters or for different galaxy families.

Secondary evolution of galaxies investigated by N-body simulations [PDF]

, 2008
In the ΛCDM cosmology, merging is one of the most important physical processes that drives the formation and evolution of galaxies. In the present work, we use N-body techniques to investigate some of currently open issues related to the formation and ...

Line-strength indices and velocity dispersions for 148 early-type galaxies in different environments [PDF]

, 2002
We have derived high quality line-strength indices and velocity dispersions for a sample of 148 early-type galaxies in different environments. The wavelength region covered by the observations ($\lambda \simeq 4600$ to 6600 Å) includes the Lick/IDS ...
