Decoupling the rotation of stars and gas -- II: the link between black hole activity and MaNGA kinematics in TNG
Christopher Duckworth, Tjitske K. Starkenburg, Shy Genel +4
We study the relationship between supermassive black hole (BH) feedback, BH luminosity and the kinematics of stars and gas for galaxies in IllustrisTNG. We use a sample of galaxies…
Multiple retrograde substructures in the Galactic halo: A shattered view of Galactic history
Helmer H. Koppelman, Amina Helmi, Davide Massari +2
Aims. Several kinematic and chemical substructures have been recently found amongst Milky Way halo stars with retrograde motions. It is currently unclear how these various structur…
Detecting Thin Stellar Streams in External Galaxies: Resolved Stars & Integrated Light
Sarah Pearson, Tjitske K. Starkenburg, Kathryn V. Johnston +2
The morphology of thin stellar streams can be used to test the nature of dark matter. It is therefore crucial to extend searches for globular cluster streams to other galaxies than…
On the origin of star-gas counterrotation in low-mass galaxies
Tjitske K. Starkenburg, Laura V. Sales, Shy Genel +3
Stars in galaxies form from the cold rotationally supported gaseous disks that settle at the center of dark matter halos. In the simplest models, such angular momentum is acquired…
The host galaxy of GRB 980425 / SN1998bw: a collisional ring galaxy
M. Arabsalmani, S. Roychowdhury, T. K. Starkenburg +8
We report Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) , Very Large Telescope (VLT) and Spitzer Space Telescope observations of ESO 184G82, the host galaxy of GRB 980425/SN 1998bw, th…
