The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: The severe attenuation of bulge flux by dusty spiral discs
Simon P. Driver, the MGC Team
Using the Millennium Galaxy Catalogue we quantify the dependency of the disc and bulge luminosity functions on galaxy inclination. Using a contemporary dust model we show that our…
The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: The connection between close pairs and asymmetry; implications for the galaxy merger rate
R. De Propris, C. J. Conselice, S. P. Driver +4
We compare the use of galaxy asymmetry and pair proximity for measuring galaxy merger fractions and rates for a volume limited sample of 3184 galaxies with -21 < M(B) -5 log h < -1…
The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: the B-band attenuation of bulge and disc light and the implied cosmic dust and stellar mass densities
Simon P. Driver, Cristina C. Popescu, Richard J. Tuffs +4
Based on our sample of 10095 galaxies with bulge-disc decompositions we derive the empirical B-band internal attenuation--inclination relation for galaxy discs and their associated…
High resolution science with high redshift galaxies
R. A. Windhorst, N. P. Hathi, S. H. Cohen +4
We summarize the high-resolution science that has been done on high redshift galaxies with Adaptive Optics (AO) on the world's largest ground-based facilities and with the Hubble S…
The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: The luminosity functions of bulges and discs and their implied stellar mass densities
Simon P. Driver, Paul D. Allen, Jochen Liske +1
We derive the luminosity functions of elliptical galaxies, galaxy bulges, galaxy pseudo-bulges and galaxy discs from our structural catalogue of 10,095 galaxies. In addition we com…
The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: Science highlights
Simon P. Driver, Jochen Liske, Alister W. Graham
The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue (MGC) provides a structural database comprising 10,095 well resolved galaxies drawn from a 37.5 sq. deg region of sky, with $B_{\tiny \sc mgc} < 20.…
