Clumpy Galaxies in GOODS and GEMS: Massive Analogs of Local Dwarf Irregulars
Debra Meloy Elmegreen, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Max T. Marcus +3
Clumpy galaxies in the GEMS and GOODS fields are examined for clues to their evolution into modern spirals. The magnitudes of the clumps and the surface brightnesses of the intercl…

Do Bars Drive Spiral Density Waves?
R. J. Buta, J. H. Knapen, B. G. Elmegreen +5
We present deep near-infrared K_s-band AAT IRIS2 observations of a selected sample of nearby barred spiral galaxies, including some with the strongest known bars. The sample covers…

Unstable disks at high redshift: Evidence for smooth accretion in galaxy formation
Frederic Bournaud, Bruce G. Elmegreen
Galaxies above redshift 1 can be very clumpy, with irregular morphologies dominated by star complexes as large as 2 kpc and as massive as a few 10^8 or 10^9 Mo. Their co-moving den…
