GALEX Ultraviolet Photometry of Globular Clusters in M31: Three Year Results and a Catalog
Soo-Chang Rey, R. Michael Rich, Sangmo T. Sohn +23
We present ultraviolet (UV) photometry of M31 globular clusters (GCs) found in 23 Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) images covering the entirety of M31. We detect 485 and 273 GCs (…
Statistical Properties of the GALEX/SDSS matched source catalogs, and classification of the UV sources
Luciana Bianchi, Lino Rodriguez-Merino, Maurice Viton +30
We use the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Medium and All-Sky-Imaging Survey (MIS & AIS) data from the first public data release (GR1), matched to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (S…
Ongoing Formation of Bulges and Black Holes in the Local Universe: New Insights from GALEX
Guinevere Kauffmann, Timothy M. Heckman, Tamas Budavari +21
We analyze a volume-limited sample of massive bulge-dominated galaxies with data from both the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite. The gal…
Radial variation of attenuation and star formation in the largest late-type disks observed with GALEX
Samuel Boissier, Armando Gil de Paz, Alessandro Boselli +24
For a sample of 43 nearby, late-type galaxies, we have investigated the radial variation of both the current star formation rate and the dust-induced UV light attenuation. To do th…
The Diverse Properties of the Most Ultraviolet Luminous Galaxies Discovered by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer
Charles G. Hoopes, Timothy M. Heckman, Samir Salim +21
We report on the properties of a sample of ultraviolet luminous galaxies (UVLGs) selected by matching the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Surveys with the Sloan Digital Sky Surve…
Suppression of star formation in early-type galaxies by feedback from supermassive black holes
Kevin Schawinski, Sadegh Khochfar, Sugata Kaviraj +21
Detailed high-resolution observations of the innermost regions of nearby galaxies have revealed the presence of supermassive black holes1. These black holes may interact with their…
