Stellar coronal mass ejections [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2022 Stellar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a growing research field, especially during the past decade. The large number of so far detected exoplanets raises the open question for the CME activity of stars, as CMEs may strongly affect ...

Galaxy Evolution with Manifold Learning [PDF]
EntropyMatter in the early Universe was nearly uniform, and galaxies emerged through the gravitational growth of small primordial density fluctuations. Astrophysics has been trying to unveil the complex physical phenomena that have caused the formation and ...

The Massive End of the Stellar Mass Function [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015 We derive average flux corrections to the \texttt{Model} magnitudes of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies by stacking together mosaics of similar galaxies in bins of stellar mass and concentration.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In this empirical work, we aim to quantify the systematic uncertainties in stellar-mass ( M _⋆ ) estimates made from spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting through stellar population synthesis (SPS) for galaxies in the local Universe by using the ...

Stellar Mass Calibrations for Local Low-mass Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalThe stellar masses of galaxies are measured from integrated light via several methods—however, few of these methods were designed for low-mass ( M _⋆ ≲ 10 ^8 M _⊙ ) “dwarf” galaxies, whose properties (e.g., stochastic star formation, low metallicity ...

Variation in the stellar mass function along stellar streams [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021 ABSTRACT Stellar streams are the inevitable end product of star cluster evolution, with the properties of a given stream being related to its progenitor. We consider how the dynamical history of a progenitor cluster, as traced by the evolution of its stellar mass function, is reflected in the resultant stream.

LATIS: The Stellar Mass–Metallicity Relation of Star-forming Galaxies at z ∼ 2.5
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present the stellar mass–stellar metallicity relation for 3491 star-forming galaxies at 2 ≲ z ≲ 3 using rest-frame far-ultraviolet spectra from the Ly α Tomography IMACS Survey (LATIS).

Stellar mass as the ‘glocal’ driver of galaxies’ stellar population properties [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 ABSTRACT The properties of the stellar populations in a galaxy are known to correlate with the amount and the distribution of stellar mass. We take advantage of the maps of light-weighted mean stellar age $\mathit {\mathrm{ Age}_{\mathrm{ wr}}}$ and metallicity $\mathit {\mathrm{ Z}_{*\mathrm{ wr}}}$ for a sample of 362 galaxies from the

THE MASS DISTRIBUTION OF STELLAR-MASS BLACK HOLES [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 We perform a Bayesian analysis of the mass distribution of stellar-mass black holes using the observed masses of 15 low-mass X-ray binary systems undergoing Roche lobe overflow and five high-mass, wind-fed X-ray binary systems. Using Markov Chain Monte Carlo calculations, we model the mass distribution both parametrically---as a power law, exponential,
