Stellar tidal streams around nearby spiral galaxies with deep imaging from amateur telescopes

David Martinez-Delgado, Michael Stein, Joanna D. Sakowska +26

Tidal interactions between massive galaxies and their satellites are fundamental processes in a Universe with L-Cold Dark Matter cosmology, redistributing material into faint featu…

Extended Red Emission in IC59 and IC63

Thomas S. -Y. Lai, Adolf N. Witt, Ken Crawford

We analysed new wide-field, wide- and narrow-band optical images of IC 59 and IC 63, two nebulae which are externally illuminated by the early B-star γ Cas, with the objective of m…

The formation of shell galaxies similar to NGC 7600 in the cold dark matter cosmogony

Andrew P. Cooper, David Martinez-Delgado, John Helly +6

We present new deep observations of 'shell' structures in the halo of the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 7600, alongside a movie of galaxy formation in a cold dark matter universe (a…

Stellar Tidal Streams in Spiral Galaxies of the Local Volume: A Pilot Survey with Modest Aperture Telescopes

David Martinez-Delgado, R. Jay Gabany, Ken Crawford +12

[Abridged] Within the hierarchical framework for galaxy formation, minor merging and tidal interactions are expected to shape all large galaxies to the present day. As a consequenc…
