Galaxy Spiral Arm Count vs. Concentration and Mass: A First Look with Euclid

Beverly J. Smith, Sydnie Bergner, Mark L. Giroux +1

Using catalogued information from Euclid Quick Data Release 1, we compare 2-armed and 3-armed spiral galaxies as classified by the Euclid Zoobot software. Two-armed galaxies have l…

Scattering, Migration, Re-circularization and Relaxation to Build Out Galaxy Disks with Exponential Profiles

Curtis Struck, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Elena DOnghia

Scattering of stars by interstellar clouds or massive clumps increases the stellar velocity dispersion and promotes a radial disk profile that is exponential. Here we show that suc…

The Complex Multi-Wavelength Morphology of the Peculiar Compact Galaxy Group IC 2431

Beverly J. Smith, Roberto Soria, Douglas Swartz +3

We present new Chandra X-ray imaging spectroscopy of the compact galaxy group IC 2431, and compare with archival ultraviolet, optical, infrared, and radio images. IC 2431 is a star…

The generation of a multi-phase medium in "Splash" bridge systems: Towards an understanding of star formation suppression in turbulent galaxy systems

Travis Yeager, Curtis Struck, Phil Appleton

Cloud-cloud collisions in splash bridges produced in gas-rich disk galaxy collisions offer a brief but interesting environment to study the effects of shocks and turbulence on star…

Grand Design vs. Multi-Armed Spiral Galaxies: Dependence on Galaxy Structure

Beverly J. Smith, Matthew Watson, Mark L. Giroux +1

We developed an algorithm to use Galaxy Zoo 3D spiral arm masks produced by citizen scientist volunteers to semi-automatically classify spiral galaxies as either multi-armed or gra…

Families of eccentric resonant orbits in galaxy discs: backbones for bars and spirals

Curtis Struck

It is widely believed that resonant orbits play an important role in formation and evolution of bars and large-scale spirals in galaxy discs. These resonant orbits have been studie…
