A Semi-Analytical Model for the Formation and Evolution of Radio Relics in Galaxy Clusters
Yihao Zhou, Haiguang Xu, Zhenghao Zhu +8
Radio relics are Mpc-sized synchrotron sources located in the peripheral regions of galaxy clusters. Models based on the diffuse shock acceleration (DSA) scenario have been widely…
The Properties of Hα Emission-Line Galaxies at z = 2.24
F. X. An, X. Z. Zheng, W. -H. Wang +9
Using deep narrow-band and -band imaging data obtained with CFHT/WIRCam, we identify a sample of 56 H emission-line galaxies (ELGs) at with the 5 dept…
The VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA): Survey Design, Data Processing, and Spectral Analysis Methods
Guillermo A. Blanc, Tim Weinzirl, Mimi Song +14
We present the survey design, data reduction, and spectral fitting pipeline for the VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA). VENGA is an integral field spectroscopic survey,…
Active Galactic Nucleus Pairs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. I. The Frequency on ~ 5-100 kpc Scales
Xin Liu, Yue Shen, Michael A. Strauss +1
Galaxy-galaxy mergers and close interactions have long been regarded as a viable mechanism for channeling gas toward the central supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of galaxies which…
The HETDEX Pilot Survey. II. The Evolution of the Ly-alpha Escape Fraction from the UV Slope and Luminosity Function of 1.9<z<3.8 LAEs
Guillermo A. Blanc, Joshua Adams, Karl Gebhardt +17
We study the escape of Ly-alpha photons from Ly-alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) and the overall galaxy population using a sample of 99 LAEs at 1.9<z<3.8 detected through integral-fi…
HETDEX pilot survey for emission-line galaxies - I. Survey design, performance, and catalog
Joshua J. Adams, Guillermo A. Blanc, Gary J. Hill +23
We present a catalog of emission-line galaxies selected solely by their emission-line fluxes using a wide-field integral field spectrograph. This work is partially motivated as a p…
The VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA): Survey Design and First Results
Guillermo A. Blanc, Karl Gebhardt, Amanda Heiderman +14
VENGA is a large-scale extragalactic IFU survey, which maps the bulges, bars and large parts of the outer disks of 32 nearby normal spiral galaxies. The targets are chosen to span…
Bars in Starbursts and AGNs -- A Quantitative Reexamination
Lei Hao, Shardha Jogee, Fabio D. Barazza +2
Galactic bars are the most important driver of secular evolution in galaxies. They can efficiently drive gas into the central kiloparsec of galaxies, thus feed circumnuclear starbu…
Probing the Excitation of Extreme Starbursts: High Resolution Mid-IR Spectroscopy of Blue Compact Dwarfs
Lei Hao, Yanling Wu, V. Charmandaris +5
We present an analysis of the mid-infrared emission lines for a sample of 12 low metallicity Blue Compact Dwarf (BCD) galaxies based on high resolution observations obtained with I…
