Evolution and Role of Mergers in the BCG-Cluster Alignment. A View from Cosmological Hydro-Simulations

Cinthia Ragone-Figueroa, Gian Luigi Granato, Stefano Borgani +5

Contradictory results have been reported on the time evolution of the alignment between clusters and their Brightest Cluster Galaxy (BCG). We study this topic by analyzing cosmolog…

Large-scale environments of narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies

Emilia Järvelä, Anne Lähteenmäki, Heidi Lietzen +3

Studying large-scale environments of narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies gives a new perspective on their properties, particularly their radio loudness. The large-scale environme…

Detection of helicoidal motion in the optical jet of PKS 0521-365

E. F. Jiménez-Andrade, V. Chavushyan, J. León-Tavares +5

The jet activity of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), and its interaction with the interstellar medium (ISM), may play a pivotal role in the processes which regulate the growth and sta…

The K-band luminosity functions of cluster galaxies

R. De Propris

We derive the galaxy luminosity function in the band for galaxies in 24 clusters to provide a local reference for higher redshift studies and to analyse how and if the lumino…

The effect of cosmic web filaments on the properties of groups and their central galaxies

Anup Poudel, Pekka Heinämäki, Elmo Tempel +3

The nature versus nurture scenario in galaxy and group evolution is a long-standing problem not yet fully understood on cosmological scales. We study the properties of groups and t…

Fading Features Found in the Kinematics of the Far-Reaching Milky Way Stellar Halo

Sarah A. Bird, Chris Flynn

We test the long-term kinematical stability of a Galactic stellar halo model, due to Kafle, et al. (2012), who study the kinematics of approximately 5000 blue horizontal branch (BH…
