The baryonic mass–size relation of galaxies

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The baryonic mass–size relation of galaxies links the total baryonic mass (stars plus gas) to the baryonic half-mass radius. In the first paper of this series, we showed that star-forming galaxies from the SPARC sample follow two distinct relations in ...

S-PLUS: LEnticular Galaxies in Stripe 82

open access: yes, 2021
This work is a Brazilian-Indian collaboration. It aims at investigating the structuralproperties of Lenticular galaxies in the Stripe 82 using a combination of S-PLUS (Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey) and SDSS data. S-PLUS is a noveloptical multi-wavelength survey which will cover nearly 8000 square degrees of the Southern hemisphere in the ...

Misaligned Gas Acquisition as a Formation Pathway of S0 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze a sample of 753 S0 galaxies from the MPL-10 of Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory survey and investigate the gas–star kinematic misalignment and merger remnant fraction in galaxies with different morphological types.

Galaxy Classification Using EWGC

open access: yesUniverse
The Enhanced Wide-field Galaxy Classification Network (EWGC) is a novel architecture designed to classify spiral and elliptical galaxies using Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) images.

Stellar Populations in Nearby Lenticular Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2006
We have obtained 2D spectral data for a sample of 58 nearby S0 galaxies with the Multi-Pupil Spectrograph of the 6m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The Lick indices H-beta, Mgb, and are calculated separately for the nuclei and for the bulges taken as the rings between R=4" and 7"; and the ...

Driver behind the bimodal distribution of Eddington-scaled radio luminosity in nearby early-type galaxies

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Early-type galaxies host low-luminosity active galactic nuclei, as indicated by radio emission spanning up to several orders of magnitude in terms of the physical scale, ranging from compact parsec-scale to extended kiloparsec-scale radio ...

A Photometric Study of Giant Ellipticals and Their Stellar Halos With VST

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
Observations of diffuse starlight in the outskirts of galaxies are thought to be a fundamental source of constraints on the cosmological context of galaxy assembly in the Λ CDM model.

Probing the effect of the protocluster environment on galaxy morphology at z = 2.23

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. As galaxies evolve in dense cluster and protocluster environments, they interact and quench their star formation. This gradually transforms the dominant galaxy population from star-forming galaxies to quiescent red galaxies.

Velocity dispersion functions of pressure-supported galaxies in EAGLE simulations with varying active galactic nucleus feedback

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
We investigated the stellar velocity dispersion functions (VDFs) of pressure-supported galaxies in the EAGLE cosmological simulations. The central stellar velocity dispersion is one of the fundamental dynamical tracers of the total mass of galaxy ...

Grigori Kuzmin and Stellar Dynamics

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2011
Grigori Kuzmin was a very gifted dynamicist and one of the towering figures in the distinguished history of the Tartu Observatory. He obtained a number of important results in relative isolation which were later rediscovered in the West.
