Caught in the act: Cluster `k+a' galaxies as a link between spirals and S0s

Bruno Rodriguez Del Pino, Steven P. Bamford, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca +3

We use integral field spectroscopy of 13 disk galaxies in the cluster AC114 at z ~ 0.31 in an attempt to disentangle the physical processes responsible for the transformation of sp…

Morphology in the Era of Large Surveys

Chris Lintott, Karen Masters, Brooke Simmons +2

The study of galaxies has changed dramatically over the past few decades with the advent of large-scale astronomical surveys. These large collaborative efforts have made available…

Galaxy Zoo 2: detailed morphological classifications for 304,122 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Kyle W. Willett, Chris J. Lintott, Steven P. Bamford +15

We present the data release for Galaxy Zoo 2 (GZ2), a citizen science project with more than 16 million morphological classifications of 304,122 galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digit…

MegaMorph -- multi-wavelength measurement of galaxy structure: Sérsic profile fits to galaxies near and far

Marina Vika, Steven P. Bamford, Boris Haeussler +3

We demonstrate a new multi-wavelength technique for two-dimensional parametric modelling of galaxy surface-brightness profiles, which we have incorporated into the widely used soft…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Linking Star Formation Histories and Stellar Mass Growth

Amanda E. Bauer, A. M. Hopkins, M. Gunawardhana +23

We present evidence for stochastic star formation histories in low-mass (M* < 10^10 Msun) galaxies from observations within the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey. For ~73,000…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly: Evolution of the Halpha luminosity function and star formation rate density up to z<0.35

M. L. P. Gunawardhana, A. M. Hopkins, J. Bland-Hawthorn +28

Measurements of the low-z Halpha luminosity function have a large dispersion in the local number density of sources, and correspondingly in the SFR density. The possible causes for…
