The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey III: Comparisons of cold dust, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, molecular gas, and atomic gas in NGC 2403

G. J. Bendo, C. D. Wilson, B. E. Warren +21

We used 3.6, 8.0, 70, 160 micron Spitzer Space Telescope data, James Clerk Maxwell Telescope HARP-B CO J=(3-2) data, National Radio Astronomy Observatory 12 meter telescope CO J=(1…

Generalized Swiss-cheese cosmologies: Mass scales

Cédric Grenon, Kayll Lake

We generalize the Swiss-cheese cosmologies so as to include nonzero linear momenta of the associated boundary surfaces. The evolution of mass scales in these generalized cosmologie…

PAndAS' cubs: discovery of two new dwarf galaxies in the surroundings of the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies

Nicolas F. Martin, Alan W. McConnachie, Mike Irwin +10

We present the discovery of two new dwarf galaxies, Andromeda XXI and Andromeda XXII, located in the surroundings of the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies (M31 and M33). These disc…

The remnants of galaxy formation from a panoramic survey of the region around M31

Alan W. McConnachie, Michael J. Irwin, Rodrigo A. Ibata +26

In hierarchical cosmological models, galaxies grow in mass through the continual accretion of smaller ones. The tidal disruption of these systems is expected to result in loosely b…

Abundance ratios in red-sequence galaxies over a wide mass range: The "X-planes" for magnesium, calcium, carbon and nitrogen

Russell J. Smith, John R. Lucey, Michael J. Hudson +1

We analyse the abundance ratios of the light elements Mg, Ca, C and N, relative to Fe, for 147 red-sequence galaxies in the Coma cluster and the Shapley Supercluster. The sample co…

The Radio Luminosity Function and Galaxy Evolution in the Coma Cluster

Neal A. Miller, Ann E. Hornschemeier, Bahram Mobasher +4

We investigate the radio luminosity function (RLF) and radio source population for two fields within the Coma cluster of galaxies. Our VLA data reach down to log(L) = 20.23 W/Hz fo…

A Multi-Wavelength Infrared Study of NGC 891

C. Whaley, J. Irwin, S. Madden +2

We present a multi-wavlength infrared study of the nearby, edge-on, spiral galaxy NGC 891. We have examined 20 independent, spatially resolved IR images of this galaxy, 14 of which…

Stellar Population and Kinematic Profiles in Spiral Bulges & Disks: Population Synthesis of Integrated Spectra

Lauren A. MacArthur, J. Jesus Gonzalez, Stephane Courteau

We present a detailed study of the stellar populations (SPs) and kinematics of the bulge and inner disk regions of eight nearby spiral galaxies (Sa-Sd) based on deep Gemini/GMOS da…

The Near-IR Luminosity Function and Bimodal Surface Brightness Distribution of Virgo Cluster Galaxies

Michael McDonald, Stephane Courteau, R. Brent Tully

We have acquired deep, H-band, imaging for a sample of 286 Virgo cluster galaxies with B <= 16 mag and extracted surface photometry from optical g,r,i,z Sloan Digital Sky Survey im…

Power spectrum for the small-scale Universe

Lawrence M. Widrow, Pascal J. Elahi, Robert J. Thacker +2

The first objects to arise in a cold dark matter universe present a daunting challenge for models of structure formation. In the ultra small-scale limit, CDM structures form nearly…
