Investigating Clumpy Galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 using the Galaxy Zoo
Vihang Mehta, Claudia Scarlata, Lucy Fortson +7
Giant, star-forming clumps are a common feature prevalent amongst high-redshift star-forming galaxies and play a critical role in shaping their chaotic morphologies and yet, their…
Galaxy Zoo: Morphological classification of galaxy images from the Illustris simulation
Hugh Dickinson, Lucy Fortson, Chris Lintott +13
Modern cosmological simulations model the universe with increasing sophistication and at higher spatial and temporal resolutions. These enhancements permit detailed comparisons bet…
Galaxy Zoo: Morphological Classifications for 120,000 Galaxies in HST Legacy Imaging
Kyle W. Willett, Melanie A. Galloway, Steven P. Bamford +18
We present the data release paper for the Galaxy Zoo: Hubble (GZH) project. This is the third phase in a large effort to measure reliable, detailed morphologies of galaxies by usin…
Spectro-polarimetry confirms central powering of a Ly nebula at z=3.09
Melanie Beck, Claudia Scarlata, Matthew Hayes +2
We present a follow-up study to the imaging polarimetry performed by Hayes et. al. 2011 on LAB1 in the SSA22 protocluster region. Arguably the most well-known Lyman- "blob", thi…
The Lyman Continuum Escape Fraction of Low-Mass Star-Forming Galaxies at z~1
Michael J. Rutkowski, Claudia Scarlata, Francesco Haardt +10
To date no direct detection of Lyman continuum emission has been measured for intermediate--redshift z~1 star-forming galaxies . We combine HST grism spectroscopy with GALEX UV and…
Predicting the redshift 2 Halpha luminosity function using [OIII] emission line galaxies
Vihang Mehta, Claudia Scarlata, James W. Colbert +12
Upcoming space-based surveys such as Euclid and WFIRST-AFTA plan to measure Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations (BAOs) in order to study dark energy. These surveys will use IR slitless…
