Overview of the SDSS-IV MaNGA Survey: Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory
Kevin Bundy, Matthew A. Bershady, David R. Law +65
We present an overview of a new integral field spectroscopic survey called MaNGA (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory), one of three core programs in the fourth-gen…
Galaxy Zoo: CANDELS Barred Disks and Bar Fractions
B. D. Simmons, Thomas Melvin, Chris Lintott +39
The formation of bars in disk galaxies is a tracer of the dynamical maturity of the population. Previous studies have found that the incidence of bars in disks decreases from the l…
Galaxy Zoo: Are Bars Responsible for the Feeding of Active Galactic Nuclei at 0.2 < z < 1.0?
Edmond Cheung, Jonathan R. Trump, E. Athanassoula +19
We present a new study investigating whether active galactic nuclei (AGN) beyond the local universe are preferentially fed via large-scale bars. Our investigation combines data fro…
HIghMass -- High HI Mass, HI-rich Galaxies at z~0: Sample Definition, Optical and Halpha Imaging, and Star Formation Properties
Shan Huang, Martha P. Haynes, Riccardo Giovanelli +10
We present first results of the study of a set of exceptional HI sources identified in the 40% ALFALFA extragalactic HI survey catalog alpha.40 as being both HI massive (M_HI > 10^…
2MTF III. HI 21cm observations of 1194 spiral galaxies with the Green Bank Telescope
Karen L. Masters, Aidan Crook, Tao Hong +5
We present HI 21cm observations of 1194 galaxies out to a redshift of 10,000 km/s selected as inclined spirals (i>60deg) from the 2MASS Redshift Survey. These observations were car…
Redshift evolution of the dynamical properties of massive galaxies from SDSS-III/BOSS
Alessandra Beifiori, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +26
We study the redshift evolution of the dynamical properties of ~180,000 massive galaxies from SDSS-III/BOSS combined with a local early-type galaxy sample from SDSS-II in the redsh…
