The third generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-III) took data from 2008 to 2014 using the original SDSS wide-field imager, the original and an upgraded multi-object fiber-fed optical…
THE CARNEGIE-IRVINE GALAXY SURVEY. III. THE THREE-COMPONENT STRUCTURE OF NEARBY ELLIPTICAL GALAXIES
- Song Huang, L. Ho, Irvine
- Physics
- 11 December 2012
Motivated by recent developments in our understanding of the formation and evolution of massive galaxies, we explore the detailed photometric structure of a representative sample of 94 bright, nearby…
FOSSIL EVIDENCE FOR THE TWO-PHASE FORMATION OF ELLIPTICAL GALAXIES
- Song Huang, L. Ho, Irvine
- PhysicsAstrophysical Journal
- 8 April 2013
Massive early-type galaxies (ETGs) have undergone dramatic structural evolution over the last 10 Gyr. A companion paper shows that nearby elliptical galaxies with M* ⩾ 1.3 × 1011M☉ generically…
On the nature of bright compact radio sources at z > 4.5
- R. Coppejans, S. Frey, Australia.
- Physics
- 2 September 2016
High-redshift radio-loud quasars are used to, among other things, test the predictions of cosmological models, set constraints on black hole growth in the early universe and understand galaxy…
STRUCTURAL PARAMETERS FOR GLOBULAR CLUSTERS IN M31
- Song-Yun Wang, J. M. N. A. Observatories, National Astronomical Observatories
- Physics
- 2 May 2013
In this paper, we present surface brightness profiles for 79 globular clusters in M31, using images observed with the Hubble Space Telescope, some of which are from new observations. The structural…
Large-field CO(1--0) observations toward the Galactic historical supernova remnants: a large cavity around Tycho's supernova remnant
- Xuepeng Chen, F. Xiong, Ji Yang Purple Mountain Observatory, Key Laboratory of Optical Astronomy, Chinese Academy of Sciences
- Physics
- 18 August 2016
The investigation of the interaction between the supernova remnants (SNRs) and interstellar gas is not only necessary to improve our knowledge of SNRs, but also to understand the nature of the…
A large sample of low surface brightness disc galaxies from the SDSS – II. Metallicities in surface brightness bins
- Y. Liang, G. Zhong, Hebei Normal University
- Physics
- 21 April 2010
We study the spectroscopic properties of a large sample of low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs) [with B-band central surface brightness μ0(B) > 22 mag arcsec −2 ] selected from the Sloan Digital…
No compelling evidence of significant early star cluster disruption in the Large Magellanic Cloud
- R. Grijs, S. Goodwin, Chinese Academy of Sciences
- Physics
- 15 August 2013
Whether or not the rich star cluster population in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is affected by significant disruption during the first few × 108 yr of its evolution is an open question and the…
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) Science Book (2021 Edition)
- Chi Cao, D. Volpe, Pino Torinese
- Physics
- 7 May 2019
Since the science white paper of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) published on arXiv in 2019 [e-Print: 1905.02773 (astro-ph.HE)], LHAASO has completed the transition from a…
GRAVITATIONAL CONUNDRUM? DYNAMICAL MASS SEGREGATION VERSUS DISRUPTION OF BINARY STARS IN DENSE STELLAR SYSTEMS
- R. Grijs, Chengyuan Li, Naoc
- Physics, GeologyAstrophysical Journal
- 9 January 2013
Upon their formation, dynamically cool (collapsing) star clusters will, within only a few million years, achieve stellar mass segregation for stars down to a few solar masses, simply because of…
