Detecting Radio-AGN signatures in Red geysers

Namrata Roy, Kevin Bundy, Edmond Cheung +19

A new class of quiescent galaxies harboring possible AGN-driven winds has been discovered using spatially resolved optical spectroscopy from the ongoing SDSS-IV MaNGA survey. These…

Weak Lensing Reveals a Tight Connection Between Dark Matter Halo Mass and the Distribution of Stellar Mass in Massive Galaxies

Song Huang, Alexie Leauthaud, Andrew Hearin +9

Using deep images from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey and taking advantage of its unprecedented weak lensing capabilities, we reveal a remarkably tight connection between the s…

Spectroscopic Constraints on the Build-up of the Intracluster Light in the Coma Cluster

Meng Gu, Charlie Conroy, David Law +13

The stellar content of the intracluster light (ICL) provides unique insight into the hierarchical assembly process of galaxy clusters.However, the ICL is difficult to study due to…
