Galaxy And Mass Assembly: Galaxy Morphology in the Green Valley, Prominent rings and looser Spiral Arms

Dominic Smith, Lutz Haberzettl, L. E. Porter +15

Galaxies broadly fall into two categories: star-forming (blue) galaxies and quiescent (red) galaxies. In between, one finds the less populated ``green valley". Some of these galaxi…

Dissecting the interstellar medium of a z=6.3 galaxy: X-shooter spectroscopy and HST imaging of the afterglow and environment of the Swift GRB 210905A

A. Saccardi, S. D. Vergani, A. De Cia +35

The study of the properties of galaxies in the first billion years after the Big Bang is one of the major topic of current astrophysics. Optical/near-infrared spectroscopy of the a…

Evidence for non-merger co-evolution of galaxies and their supermassive black holes

R. J. Smethurst, R. S. Beckmann, B. D. Simmons +7

Recent observational and theoretical studies have suggested that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) grow mostly through non-merger (`secular') processes. Since galaxy mergers lead to…

Supermassive black holes in merger-free galaxies have higher spins which are preferentially aligned with their host galaxy

R. S. Beckmann, R. J. Smethurst, B. D. Simmons +7

Here we use the Horizon-AGN simulation to test whether the spins of SMBHs in merger-free galaxies are higher. We select samples using an observationally motivated bulge-to-total ma…

The Velocity Dispersion Function for Massive Quiescent and Star-Forming Galaxies at 0.6 z 1.0

Lance Taylor, Rachel Bezanson, Arjen van der Wel +10

We present the first direct spectroscopic measurement of the stellar velocity dispersion function (VDF) for massive quiescent and star-forming galaxies at . For t…

Signs of environmental effects on star-forming galaxies in the Spiderweb protocluster at z=2.16

Jose Manuel Pérez-Martínez, Helmut Dannerbauer, Tadayuki Kodama +11

We use multi-object near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy with VLT/KMOS to investigate the role of the environment in the evolution of the ionized gas properties of narrow-band selected…

The Mass Scale of High-Redshift Galaxies: Virial Mass Estimates Calibrated with Stellar Dynamical Models from LEGA-C

Arjen van der Wel, Josha van Houdt, Rachel Bezanson +9

Dynamical models for galaxies at with spatially resolved (long-slit) stellar kinematic data from LEGA-C are used to calibrate virial mass estimates defined as $M_…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly: Galaxy Zoo spiral arms and star formation rates

R. Porter-Temple, B. W. Holwerda, A. M. Hopkins +6

Understanding the effect spiral structure has on star formation properties of galaxies is important to completing our picture of spiral structure evolution. Previous studies have i…

Euclid preparation. XXI. Intermediate-redshift contaminants in the search for galaxies within the Euclid Deep Survey

Euclid Collaboration, S. E. van Mierlo, K. I. Caputi +203

(Abridged) The Euclid mission is expected to discover thousands of z>6 galaxies in three Deep Fields, which together will cover a ~40 deg2 area. However, the limited number of Eucl…

Preparing for low surface brightness science with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory: characterisation of tidal features from mock images

G. Martin, A. E. Bazkiaei, M. Spavone +50

Tidal features in the outskirts of galaxies yield unique information about their past interactions and are a key prediction of the hierarchical structure formation paradigm. The Ve…

Galaxy Zoo: Clump Scout: Surveying the Local Universe for Giant Star-forming Clumps

Dominic Adams, Vihang Mehta, Hugh Dickinson +5

Massive, star-forming clumps are a common feature of high-redshift star-forming galaxies. How they formed, and why they are so rare at low redshift, remains unclear. In this paper…
