On the Metallicity and Origin of the Smith High-Velocity Cloud

Andrew J. Fox, Nicolas Lehner, Felix J. Lockman +7

The Smith Cloud is a gaseous high-velocity cloud (HVC) in an advanced state of accretion, only 2.9 kpc below the Galactic plane and due to impact the disk in 27 Myr. It is unique a…

The AIMSS Project III: The Stellar Populations of Compact Stellar Systems

Joachim Janz, Mark A. Norris, Duncan A. Forbes +11

In recent years, a growing zoo of compact stellar systems (CSSs) have been found whose physical properties (mass, size, velocity dispersion) place them between classical globular c…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Gas Streaming and Dynamical M/L in Rotationally Supported Systems

G. Cecil, L. M. R. Fogarty, S. Richards +19

Line-of-sight velocities of gas and stars can constrain dark matter (DM) within rotationally supported galaxies if they trace circular orbits extensively. Photometric asymmetries m…

Starburst Driven Galactic Superbubbles Radiating to 10 K

Ryan Tanner, Gerald Cecil, Fabian Heitsch

Our three-dimensional hydro-dynamical simulations of starbursts examine the formation of superbubbles over a range of driving luminosities and mass loadings that determine superbub…

A Global View of Molecule-Forming Clouds in the Galaxy

Steven J. Gibson, Ward S. Howard, Christian S. Jolly +9

We have mapped cold atomic gas in 21cm line HI self-absorption (HISA) at arcminute resolution over more than 90% of the Milky Way's disk. To probe the formation of H2 clouds, we ha…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Can we trust aperture corrections to predict star formation?

Samuel Nathan Richards, Julia Bryant, Scott Croom +21

In the low redshift Universe (z<0.3), our view of galaxy evolution is primarily based on fibre optic spectroscopy surveys. Elaborate methods have been developed to address aperture…

The SAMI Pilot Survey: Stellar Kinematics of Galaxies in Abell 85, 168 and 2399

L. M. R. Fogarty, N. Scott, M. S. Owers +22

We present the SAMI Pilot Survey, consisting of integral field spectroscopy of 106 galaxies across three galaxy clusters, Abell 85, Abell 168 and Abell 2399. The galaxies were sele…

ECO and RESOLVE: Galaxy Disk Growth in Environmental Context

Amanda J. Moffett, Sheila J. Kannappan, Andreas A. Berlind +5

We study the relationships between galaxy environments and galaxy properties related to disk (re)growth, considering two highly complete samples that are approximately baryonic mas…

RESOLVE Survey Photometry and Volume-limited Calibration of the Photometric Gas Fractions Technique

Kathleen D. Eckert, Sheila J. Kannappan, David V. Stark +4

We present custom-processed UV, optical, and near-IR photometry for the RESOLVE survey, a volume-limited census of stellar, gas, and dynamical mass within two subvolumes of the nea…

The Evolution of the Far-UV Luminosity Function and Star Formation Rate Density of the Chandra Deep Field South from z=0.2-1.2 with Swift/UVOT

Lea M. Z. Hagen, Erik A. Hoversten, Caryl Gronwall +4

We use deep Swift UV/Optical Telescope (UVOT) near-ultraviolet (1600A to 4000A) imaging of the Chandra Deep Field South to measure the rest-frame far-UV (FUV; 1500A) luminosity fun…

Exploring the Dust Content of Galactic Winds with Herschel. I. NGC 4631

M. Meléndez, S. Veilleux, C. Martin +8

We present a detailed analysis of deep far-infrared observations of the nearby edge-on star-forming galaxy NGC 4631 obtained with the Herschel Space Observatory. Our PACS images at…
