Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): stellar mass growth of spiral galaxies in the cosmic web [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We look for correlated changes in stellar mass and star formation rate (SFR) along filaments in the cosmic web by examining the stellar masses and UV-derived SFRs of 1799 ungrouped and unpaired spiral galaxies that reside in filaments. We devise multiple

Extragalactic Magnetism with SOFIA (SALSA Legacy Program): The Magnetic Fields in the Multiphase Interstellar Medium of the Antennae Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
Mergers are thought to be a fundamental channel for galaxy growth, perturbing the gas dynamics and the magnetic fields ( B -fields) in the interstellar medium (ISM).

A Relativistic Entropic Hamiltonian–Lagrangian Approach to the Entropy Production of Spiral Galaxies in Hyperbolic Spacetime

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Double-spiral galaxies are common in the Universe. It is known that the logarithmic double spiral is a Maximum Entropy geometry in hyperbolic (flat) spacetime that well represents an idealised spiral galaxy, with its central supermassive black hole (SMBH)

Barred Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970
We point out some properties of barred spiral galaxies which are important for the theory of their formation and spiral structure, and describe some theoretical work on the dynamics of these systems.

MEGAMASER DISKS REVEAL A BROAD DISTRIBUTION OF BLACK HOLE MASS IN SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We use new precision measurements of black hole (BH) masses from water megamaser disks to investigate scaling relations between macroscopic galaxy properties and supermassive BH mass.

Star Formation Efficiency in the Central 1 kpc Region of Early-Type Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
It has been reported recently that there are some early-type spiral (Sa--Sab) galaxies having evident star-forming regions which concentrate in their own central 1-kpc.

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Variation of the Stellar Initial Mass Function in Spiral and Early-type Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We perform Jeans anisotropic modeling (JAM) on elliptical and spiral galaxies from the MaNGA DR13 sample. By comparing the stellar mass-to-light ratios estimated from stellar population synthesis and from JAM, we find a systematic variation of the ...

DGSAT: Dwarf Galaxy Survey with Amateur Telescopes I. Discovery of low surface brightness systems around nearby spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Context: We introduce the Dwarf Galaxy Survey with Amateur Telescopes (DGSAT) project and report the discovery of eleven low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the fields of the nearby galaxies NGC 2683, NGC 3628, NGC 4594 (M104), NGC 4631, NGC 5457 ...

The Global Schmidt law in star forming galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Measurements of Hα, H I, and CO distributions in 61 normal spiral galaxies are combined with published far-infrared and CO observations of 36 infrared-selected starburst galaxies, in order to study the form of the global star formation law over the full ...

The Origin and Evolution of Giant Radio Galaxies

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Giant radio galaxies are arguably the least understood of jetted active galactic nuclei (AGN). We propose that radio galaxies are the product of large mergers that do not involve radio galaxies or radio quasars, such as in merging spiral galaxies, while ...
