Galaxy Zoo: Secular evolution of barred galaxies from structural decomposition of multi-band images

Sandor J. Kruk, Chris J. Lintott, Steven P. Bamford +9

We present the results of two-component (disc+bar) and three-component (disc+bar+bulge) multiwavelength 2D photometric decompositions of barred galaxies in five SDSS bands (…

Galaxy Cluster Mass Reconstruction Project: III. The impact of dynamical substructure on cluster mass estimates

L. Old, R. Wojtak, F. R. Pearce +14

With the advent of wide-field cosmological surveys, we are approaching samples of hundreds of thousands of galaxy clusters. While such large numbers will help reduce statistical un…

Galaxy Zoo and SpArcFiRe: Constraints on spiral arm formation mechanisms from spiral arm number and pitch angles

Ross E. Hart, Steven P. Bamford, Wayne B. Hayes +7

In this paper we study the morphological properties of spiral galaxies, including measurements of spiral arm number and pitch angle. Using Galaxy Zoo 2, a stellar mass-complete sam…

OMEGA - OSIRIS Mapping of Emission-line Galaxies in A901/2: III. - Galaxy Properties Across Projected Phase Space in A901/2

Tim Weinzirl, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca, Meghan E. Gray +6

We conduct a comprehensive projected phase-space analysis of the A901/2 multi-cluster system at . Aggregating redshifts from spectroscopy, tunable-filter imaging, and p…

The effects of the cluster environment on the galaxy mass-size relation in MACSJ J1206.2-0847

U. Kuchner, B. Ziegler, M. Verdugo +2

The dense environment of galaxy clusters strongly influences the nature of galaxies. Here, we study the cause of the size distribution of a sample of 560 spectroscopic members span…

Galaxy Zoo: Finding offset discs and bars in SDSS galaxies

Sandor J. Kruk, Chris J. Lintott, Brooke D. Simmons +9

We use multi-wavelength SDSS images and Galaxy Zoo morphologies to identify a sample of late-type galaxies with an off-centre bar. We measure offsets in the range 0.2-2…
