The Origin and Evolution of Giant Radio Galaxies
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 ...

A Morphological-type dependence in the mu_0-log(h) plane of Spiral galaxy disks [PDF]
We present observational evidence for a galaxy `Type' dependence to the location of a spiral galaxy's disk parameters in the mu_0-log(h) (central disk surface-brightness - disk scale-length) plane.

Accretion, radial flows and abundance gradients in spiral galaxies [PDF]
The metal-poor gas continuously accreting on to the discs of spiral galaxies is unlikely to arrive from the intergalactic medium (IGM) with exactly the same rotation velocity as the galaxy itself and even a small angular momentum mismatch inevitably ...

Spiral galaxies in the SAURON survey [PDF]
AbstractWe discuss some recent integral field spectroscopy using the SAURON instrument of a sample consisting of 24 early-type spirals, part of the SAURON Survey, and 18 late-type spirals. Using 2-dimensional maps of their stellar radial velocity, velocity dispersion, and absorption line strength, it is now much easier to understand the nature of ...

HOT GASEOUS CORONAE AROUND SPIRAL GALAXIES: PROBING THE ILLUSTRIS SIMULATION [PDF]
The presence of hot gaseous coronae around present-day massive spiral galaxies is a fundamental prediction of galaxy formation models. However, our observational knowledge remains scarce, since to date only four gaseous coronae have been detected around ...

Radio AGN in spiral galaxies [PDF]
Radio AGN in the nearby Universe are more likely to be found in galaxies with early-type morphology, the detection rate in spiral or late-type galaxies (LTGs) being around an order of magnitude lower. We combine the mJy Imaging VLBA Exploration at 20 cm (mJIVE-20) survey with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, to study the relatively rare population of AGN ...

The profiles of bars in spiral galaxies
ABSTRACT We present an analysis of major-axis surface-brightness profiles of bars in a volume-limited sample of 182 barred spiral galaxies, using Spitzer 3.6 $\mu$m images. Unlike most previous studies, we use the entire bar profile, and we classify profiles into four categories.

IN-N-OUT: THE GAS CYCLE FROM DWARFS TO SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]
We examine the scalings of galactic outflows with halo mass across a suite of 20 high-resolution cosmological zoom galaxy simulations covering halo masses in the range .

Spin Parity of Spiral Galaxies. I. Corroborative Evidence for Trailing Spirals
Whether the spiral structure of galaxies is trailing or leading has been a subject of debate. We present a new spin parity catalog of 146 spiral galaxies that lists the following three pieces of information: whether the spiral structure observed on the ...

Discovery of rare double-lobe radio galaxies hosted in spiral galaxies [PDF]
Double-lobe radio galaxies in the local Universe have traditionally been found to be hosted in elliptical or lenticular galaxies. We report the discovery of four spiral-host double-lobe radio galaxies (J0836+0532, J1159+5820, J1352+3126 and J1649+2635 ...
