Galaxy interactions are the dominant trigger for local type 2 quasars
J. C. S. Pierce, C. Tadhunter, C. Ramos Almeida +8
The triggering mechanism for the most luminous, quasar-like active galactic nuclei (AGN) remains a source of debate, with some studies favouring triggering via galaxy mergers, but…
Galaxy And Mass Assembly: A new approach to quantifying dust in galaxies
B. Farley, U. T. Ahmed, A. M. Hopkins +8
We introduce a new approach to quantifying dust in galaxies by combining information from the Balmer decrement (BD) and the dust mass (). While there is no explicit correlatio…
Do AGN triggering mechanisms vary with radio power? II. The importance of mergers as a function of radio power and optical luminosity
J. C. S. Pierce, C. N. Tadhunter, Y. Gordon +7
Investigation of the triggering mechanisms of radio AGN is important for improving our general understanding of galaxy evolution. In the first paper in this series, detailed morpho…
Classification of compact radio sources in the Galactic plane with supervised machine learning
S. Riggi, G. Umana, C. Trigilio +13
Generation of science-ready data from processed data products is one of the major challenges in next-generation radio continuum surveys with the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) and it…
The GL-l.u.st.\ constant and asymmetry of the Kalton-Peck twisted sum in finite dimensions
Y. Gordon, M. Junge, M. Meyer +1
We prove that the Kalton-Peck twisted sum of -dimensional Hilbert spaces has GL-l.u.st.\ constant of order and bounded GL constant. This is the first concrete e…
EMU/GAMA: A new approach to characterising radio luminosity functions
J. Prathap, A. M. Hopkins, J. Afonso +16
This study characterises the radio luminosity functions (RLFs) for SFGs and AGN using statistical redshift estimation in the absence of comprehensive spectroscopic data. Sensitive…
Identification of Galaxy-Galaxy Strong Lens Candidates in the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey Using Machine Learning
E. A. Zaborowski, A. Drlica-Wagner, F. Ashmead +88
We perform a search for galaxy-galaxy strong lens systems using a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to imaging data from the first public data release of the DECam Local V…
