Metallicity Mapping of the Ionized Diffuse Gas at the Milky Way Disk–Halo Interface

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Metals in the diffuse, ionized gas at the boundary between the Milky Way’s interstellar medium (ISM) and circumgalactic medium, known as the disk–halo interface (DHI), are valuable tracers of the feedback processes that drive the Galactic fountain ...

Black holes in the Milky Way Galaxy

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
Extremely strong observational evidence has recently been found for the presence of black holes orbiting a few relatively normal stars in our Milky Way Galaxy and also at the centers of some galaxies. The former generally have masses of 4–16 times the mass of the sun, whereas the latter are “supermassive black holes” with millions to billions of ...

The Chemical Evolution of the Milky Way Galaxy

open access: yes, 2021
The elemental abundance gradients of elements up to Zn are predicted using the N body Monte Carlo technique by developing homogenous and heterogeneous Galactic Chemical Evolution (GCE) simulations. In the case of homogeneous GCE models, the galaxy is radially divided into eight annular rings of 2 kpc width each at a distance of 2-18 kpc from the center

Commodity risk assessment of Betula pendula and Betula pubescens plants from the UK

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to prepare and deliver risk assessments for commodities listed in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019 as ‘High risk plants, plant products and other objects’. This Scientific Opinion covers plant health risks posed by plants of Betula pendula and B.

Listening to life: Sonification for enhancing discovery in biological research

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 121, Issue 10, Page 3009-3019, October 2024.
Abstract Sonification, or the practice of generating sound from data, is a promising alternative or complement to data visualization for exploring research questions in the life sciences. Expressing or communicating data in the form of sound rather than graphs, tables, or renderings can provide a secondary information source for multitasking or remote ...

Rotation and mass in the Milky Way and spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2016
Abstract Rotation curves are the basic tool for deriving the distribution of mass in spiral galaxies. In this review, we describe various methods to measure rotation curves in the Milky Way and spiral galaxies. We then describe two major methods to calculate the mass distribution using the rotation curve.

On the Corotation of Milky Way Satellites: LMC-mass Satellites Induce Apparent Motions in Outer Halo Tracers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Understanding the physical mechanism behind the formation of a corotating thin plane of satellite galaxies, like the one observed around the Milky Way (MW), has been challenging.

Breaking up the Magellanic Group into the Milky Way Halo: Understanding the Local Dwarf Galaxy Properties [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
We use a numerical simulation of a loose group containing a Milky Way halo to probe that in the hierarchical universe the Magellanic Clouds and some dSphs have been accreted into the Milky Way halo from a late infalling group of dwarfs. Our simulations show that the tidal breakup of the Magellanic group occurs before it enters the Milky Way halo.

The Milky Way’s Rowdy Neighbors: The Effects of the Large Magellanic Cloud and Sagittarius Dwarf on the Milky Way Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Milky Way (MW) is a barred spiral galaxy shaped by tidal interactions with its satellites. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy (Sgr) are the dominant influences at the present day. This paper presents a suite of four 10 ^
