The Size Evolution of Star-forming Galaxies Since z~7 Using ZFOURGE

Rebecca J. Allen, Glenn G. Kacprzak, Karl Glazebrook +10

For the first time, we present the size evolution of a mass-complete (log(M*/Msol)>10) sample of star-forming galaxies over redshifts z=1-7, selected from the FourStar Galaxy Evolu…

ZFIRE: Similar Stellar Growth in H-emitting Cluster and Field Galaxies at z~2

Kim-Vy H. Tran, Leo Y. Alcorn, Glenn G. Kacprzak +13

We compare galaxy scaling relations as a function of environment at with our ZFIRE survey where we have measured H fluxes for 90 star-forming galaxies selected from a m…

Quasar Host Galaxies and the - Relation

Andrew I. Sheinis, Ángel R. López-Sánchez

We analyze the emission line profiles detected in deep optical spectra of quasars to derive the mass of their super-massive black holes (SMBH) following the single-epoch virial met…

Systematic trends in total-mass profiles from dynamical models of early-type galaxies

A. Poci, M. Cappellari, R. M. McDermid

We study trends in the slope of the total mass profiles and dark matter fractions within the central half-light radius of 258 early-type galaxies, using data from the volume-limite…

Star Formation Close to Sgr A* and Beyond the Nuclear Cluster

F. Yusef-Zadeh, M. Wardle

Two modes of star formation are involved to explain the origin of young stars near Sgr A*. One is a disk-based mode, which explains the disk of stars orbiting Sgr A*. The other is…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Revisiting Galaxy Classification Through High-Order Stellar Kinematics

Jesse van de Sande, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Lisa M. R. Fogarty +36

Recent cosmological hydrodynamical simulations suggest that integral field spectroscopy can connect the high-order stellar kinematic moments h3 (~skewness) and h4 (~kurtosis) in ga…
