Deep Learning for Galaxy Mergers in the Galaxy Main Sequence [PDF]
Starburst galaxies are often found to be the result of galaxy mergers. As a result, galaxy mergers are often believed to lie above the galaxy main sequence: the tight correlation between stellar mass and star formation rate.

The embedded clusters DBS 77, 78, 102, and 160-161 and their link with the interstellar medium [PDF]
Aims. We report a study of the global properties of some embedded clusters placed in the fourth quadrant of the Milky Way to clarify some issues related with their location into the Galaxy and their stellar formation processes. Methods.

Kepler Input Catalog: Photometric Calibration and Stellar Classification
We describe the photometric calibration and stellar classification methods used to produce the Kepler Input Catalog (KIC). The KIC is a catalog containing photometric and physical data for sources in the Kepler Mission field of view; it is used by the ...

Automated Classification of Stellar Spectra. II: Two-Dimensional Classification with Neural Networks and Principal Components Analysis [PDF]
We investigate the application of neural networks to the automation of MK spectral classification. The data set for this project consists of a set of over 5000 optical (3800-5200 AA) spectra obtained from objective prism plates from the Michigan Spectral

Automated Classification of Stellar Spectra using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]
The classification of stellar spectra is a fundamental task in stellar astrophysics. There have been many explorations into the automated classification of stellar spectra but few that involve the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Galaxy Zoo: the dependence of morphology and colour on environment [PDF]
We analyse the relationships between galaxy morphology, colour, environment and stellar mass using data for over 100,000 objects from Galaxy Zoo, the largest sample of visually classified morphologies yet compiled.

Observational evidence for the origin of X-ray sources in globular clusters [PDF]
Low-mass X-ray binaries, recycled pulsars, cataclysmic variables and magnetically active binaries are observed as X-ray sources in globular clusters. We discuss the classification of these systems, and find that some presumed active binaries are brighter
