The Carnegie-Irvine Galaxy Survey. III. The Three-Component Structure of Nearby Elliptical Galaxies
Song Huang, Luis C. Ho, Chien Y. Peng +2
Motivated by recent developments in our understanding of the formation and evolution of massive galaxies, we explore the detailed photometric structure of a representative sample o…
Intragroup and Galaxy-Linked Diffuse X-ray Emission in Hickson Compact Groups
Tyler D. Desjardins, Sarah C. Gallagher, Panayiotis Tzanavaris +9
Isolated compact groups of galaxies (CGs) present a range of dynamical states, group velocity dispersions, and galaxy morphologies with which to study galaxy evolution, particularl…
Exploring the NRO Opportunity for a Hubble-sized Wide-field Near-IR Space Telescope -- NEW WFIRST
Alan Dressler, David Spergel, Matt Mountain +24
We discuss scientific, technical and programmatic issues related to the use of an NRO 2.4m telescope for the WFIRST initiative of the 2010 Decadal Survey. We show that this impleme…
High-pressure effects on single crystals electron-doped rCeCuO
C. R. Rotundu, V. V. Struzhkin, M. S. Somayazulu +3
We present high pressure diamond anvil cell synchrotron X-ray, resistivity, and ac-susceptibility measurements on electron-doped cuprate PrCeCuO to much higher…
Observable Signatures of Planet Accretion in Red Giant Stars I: Rapid Rotation and Light Element Replenishment
Joleen K. Carlberg, Katia Cunha, Verne V. Smith +1
The orbital angular momentum of a close-orbiting giant planet can be sufficiently large that, if transferred to the envelope of the host star during the red giant branch (RGB) evol…
A unified picture of breaks and truncations in spiral galaxies from SDSS and S^{4}G imaging
Ignacio Martín-Navarro, Judit Bakos, Ignacio Trujillo +21
The mechanism causing breaks in the radial surface brightness distribution of spiral galaxies is not yet well known. Despite theoretical efforts, there is not a unique explanation…
