Measure of the potential valleys of the supermembrane theory

L. Boulton, M. P. Garcia del Moral, A. Restuccia

We analyse the measure of the regularized matrix model of the supersymmetric potential valleys, , of the Hamiltonian of non zero modes of supermembrane theory. This is the same…

Diversity of Galaxy Dust Attenuation Curves Drives the Scatter in the IRX-beta Relation

Samir Salim, Médéric Boquien

We study the drivers of the scatter in the IRX-beta relation using 23,000 low-redshift galaxies from the GALEX-SDSS-WISE Legacy Catalog 2 (GSWLC-2). For each galaxy we derive, usin…

Star formation and gas in the minor merger UGC 10214

D. Rosado-Belza, U. Lisenfeld, J. Hibbard +6

UGC 10214 is a minor merger in which a dwarf galaxy has interacted with a large spiral galaxy 250 Myr ago and produced a perturbed disk and a giant tidal tail. We use a multi…
