Are Disks of Satellites Comprised of Tidal Dwarf Galaxies?

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
It was found that satellites of nearby galaxies can form flattened co-rotating structures called disks of satellites or planes of satellites. Their existence is not expected by the current galaxy formation simulations in the standard dark matter-based ...

Cosmological pseudobulge formation

open access: yes, 2012
Bulges can be classified into classical and pseudobulges; the former are considered to be end products of galactic mergers and the latter to form via secular evolution of galactic disks.

Disk Heating, Galactoseismology, and the Formation of Stellar Halos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Deep photometric surveys of the Milky Way have revealed diffuse structures encircling our Galaxy far beyond the "classical" limits of the stellar disk. This paper reviews results from our own and other observational programs, which together suggest that,

Identification of PKN2 and MOB4 as Coordinators of Collective Cell Migration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a genetic screen, PKN2 and MOB4 are identified as two proteins regulating the healing of an epithelial model wound. PKN2 promotes collective cell migration by maintaining the cohesion of cell monolayers from their lateral junctions, whereas MOB4 restrains collective cell migration and provides a lamellipodial cue for front‐rear polarity in ...

Candidate Members of the VMP/EMP Disk System of the Galaxy from the SkyMapper and SAGES Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Photometric stellar surveys now cover a large fraction of the sky, probe to fainter magnitudes than large-scale spectroscopic surveys, and are relatively free from the target selection biases often associated with such studies.

De Novo Gene Transcription of Connexin Mediates Cytoplasmic Fluid Exchange and Flocking Transitions in Physiological and Cancerous Epithelial Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
EGF‐induced de novo transcription of connexins Cx26 and Cx31 promotes flocking behavior that fluidizes epithelia and enables coordinated collective migration. Connexin‐driven cytoplasmic exchange mechanistically links growth‐factor signaling to invasive dynamics.

Additional Evidence for the Existence of a Primordial Disk System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The origin of very metal-poor (VMP; [Fe/H] ≤ −2.0) stars on planar orbits has been the subject of great attention since their first discovery. However, prior to the release of the Gaia BP/RP (XP) spectra and large photometric samples such as SkyMapper ...

The Chemical Enrichment of the Milky Way Disk Evaluated Using Conditional Abundances

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Chemical abundances of Milky Way disk stars are empirical tracers of its enrichment history. However, they capture joint-information that is valuable to disentangle.

Rotation of galaxies and dark matter

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2023
In a previous paper by the author was proposed a new metric for the gravitational field of a thin rotating disk physically different from the Kerr metric. The metric is admissible for any angular momentum of the disk. As demonstrated in the present paper
