The properties of Low Surface Brightness galaxies [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2002 A description is given of the samples of Low Surface Brightness galaxies (LSBs) used for comparison with models of their chemical and spectro-photometric evolution (Boissier et al., this Volume).

Chain Galaxies are Edge-On Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 1996 Deep HST WFPC2 images have revealed a population of very narrow blue galaxies which Cowie et al. (1996) have interpreted as being a new morphological class of intrinsically linear star forming galaxies at $z=0.5-3$.

Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxies : Evolution in Isolation [PDF]
Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy, 2013 Giant Low Surface Brightness (GLSB) galaxies are amongst the most massive spiral galaxies that we know of in our Universe. Although they fall in the class of late type spiral galaxies, their properties are far more extreme.

The Stellar Populations of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998 Near-infrared (NIR) K' images of a sample of five low surface brightness disc galaxies (LSBGs) were combined with optical data, with the aim of constraining their star formation histories. Both red and blue LSBGs were imaged to enable comparison of their

Characterising bars in low surface brightness galaxies
, 2018 In this paper, we use $\textit{B}$-band, $\textit{I}$-band, and 3.6 $\mu$m azimuthal light profiles of four low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies (UGC 628, F568-1, F568-3, F563-V2) to characterise three bar parameters: length, strength, and corotation ...

Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2004 ▪ Abstract The properties of galaxies that are lower in surface brightness than the dark night sky are reviewed. There are substantial selection effects against the discovery of galaxies that are unevolved or diffuse; these systems are missing from most wide field catalogs. Low surface brightness galaxies make up a significant amount of the luminosity

Structure and Color Gradients of Ultradiffuse Galaxies in Distant Massive Galaxy Clusters
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We have measured structural parameters and radial color profiles of 108 ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs), carefully selected from six distant massive galaxy clusters in the Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF) in a redshift range from 0.308 to 0.545.

Star-forming Main Sequence of Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Giant low surface brightness galaxies (GLSBGs) are fundamentally distinct from normal galaxies and other types of LSBGs in terms of star formation and evolution. In this work, we collected 27 local GLSBGs from the literature.

Galaxy formation and evolution: low-surface-brightness galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998 We investigate in detail the hypothesis that low surface brightness galaxies (LSB) differ from ordinary galaxies simply because they form in halos with large spin parameters. We compute star formation rates using the Schmidt law, assuming the same gas infall dependence on surface density as used in models of the Milky Way.
