Quantitative Morphology of Galactic Cirrus in Deep Optical Imaging
Qing Liu, Peter Martin, Roberto Abraham +9
Imaging of optical Galactic cirrus, the spatially resolved form of diffuse Galactic light, provides important insights into the properties of the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM)…
The Bullseye: HST, Keck/KCWI, and Dragonfly Characterization of a Giant Nine-Ringed Galaxy
Imad Pasha, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Qing Liu +5
We report the discovery and multiwavelength followup of LEDA 1313424 ("Bullseye"), a collisional ring galaxy (CRG) with nine readily-identified rings -- the most so far reported fo…
Fuzzy Galaxies or Cirrus? Decomposition of Galactic Cirrus in Deep Wide-Field Images
Qing Liu, Roberto Abraham, Peter G. Martin +12
Diffuse Galactic cirrus, or Diffuse Galactic Light (DGL), can be a prominent component in the background of deep wide-field imaging surveys. The DGL provides unique insights into t…
First Results from the Dragonfly Ultrawide Survey: the Largest Eleven Quenched Diffuse Dwarf Galaxies in 3100 deg with Spectroscopic Confirmation
Zili Shen, William P. Bowman, Pieter van Dokkum +7
The Dragonfly Telephoto Array employs a unique design to detect very large and diffuse galaxies, which might be missed with conventional telescopes. The Dragonfly Ultrawide Survey…
