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

Star-forming Main Sequence of Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxies
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]
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]
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]
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.
