The Red Supergiant Binary Fraction as a Function of Metallicity in M31 and M33
Kathryn F. Neugent
Recent work measuring the binary fraction of evolved red supergiants (RSGs) in the Magellanic Clouds points to a value between 15-30%, with the majority of the companions being un-…
Pushing automated morphological classifications to their limits with the Dark Energy Survey
J. Vega-Ferrero, H. Domínguez Sánchez, M. Bernardi +60
We present morphological classifications of 27 million galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Data Release 1 (DR1) using a supervised deep learning algorithm. The classif…
A machine learning approach to galaxy properties: joint redshift-stellar mass probability distributions with Random Forest
S. Mucesh, W. G. Hartley, A. Palmese +72
We demonstrate that highly accurate joint redshift-stellar mass probability distribution functions (PDFs) can be obtained using the Random Forest (RF) machine learning (ML) algorit…
Relationships between the Stellar, Gaseous, and Star Formation Disks in LITTLE THINGS Dwarf Irregular Galaxies: Indirect Evidence for Substantial Fractions of Dark Molecular Gas
Deidre A. Hunter, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Esther Goldberger +7
The stellar, gaseous and young stellar disks in the LITTLE THINGS sample of nearby dIrrs are fitted with functions to search for correlations between the parameters. We find that t…
New Horizons Observations of the Cosmic Optical Background
Tod R. Lauer, Marc Postman, Harold A. Weaver +26
We used existing data from the New Horizons LORRI camera to measure the optical-band () sky brightness within seven high galactic latitude fields. T…
Brightest Cluster Galaxies: the centre can(not?) hold
Roberto De Propris, Michael J. West, Felipe Andrade-Santos +9
We explore the persistence of the alignment of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) with their local environment. We find that a significant fraction of BCGs do not coincide with the…
