Galaxy formation and evolution: low-surface-brightness galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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.

Surface photometry of low surface brightness galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1995
Low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies are galaxies dominated by an exponential disc whose central surface brightness is much fainter than the value of mu(B)(0) = 21.65 +/- 0.30 mag arcsec(-2) found by Freeman. In this paper we present broadband photometry of a sample of 21 late-type LSB galaxies.

Massive low-surface-brightness galaxies in the eagle simulation [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT We investigate the formation and properties of low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs) with M* > 109.5 M⊙ in the eagle hydrodynamical cosmological simulation. Galaxy surface brightness depends on a combination of stellar mass surface density and mass-to-light ratio (M/L), such that low surface brightness is strongly ...

Dwarfs from the Dark (Energy Survey): a machine learning approach to classify dwarf galaxies from multi-band images

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2021
Countless low-surface brightness objects - including spiral galaxies, dwarf galaxies, and noise patterns - have been detected in recent large surveys.

Star-forming Main Sequence of Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxies

open access: yesThe 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.

The enviroment of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of Baryons in Dark Matter Halos — PoS(BDMH2004), 2004
Using the Early Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) we investigated the clustering properties of Low Surface Brightness (LSB) galaxies in comparison to normal, High Surface Brightness (HSB) galaxies. We selected LSB galaxies and HSB galaxies with well measured redshifts from the SDSS data base and performed three-dimensional neighbour ...

Nearby Gas‐rich Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2000
We examine the Fisher-Tully cz<1000 km/s galaxy sample to determine whether it is a complete and representative sample of all galaxy types, including low surface brightness populations, as has been recently claimed. We find that the sample is progressively more incomplete for galaxies with (1) smaller physical diameters at a fixed isophote and (2 ...

From Spirals to Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2003
We show that simple models of the chemical and spectrophotometric evolution of galaxies can be used to explore the properties of present-day galaxies and especially the causes of the observed variety among disc galaxies. We focus on the link between ``classical'' spirals and Low Surface Brightness galaxies.
