Extending the Nearby Galaxy Heritage with WISE: First Results from the WISE Enhanced Resolution Galaxy Atlas

T. H. Jarrett, F. Masci, C. W. Tsai +15

The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mapped the entire sky at mid-infrared wavelengths 3.4, 4.6, 12 and 22 microns. The mission was primarily designed to extract point so…

Breaks in thin and thick discs of edge-on galaxies imaged in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G)

Sébastien Comerón, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Heikki Salo +17

Breaks in the radial luminosity profiles of galaxies have been until now mostly studied averaged over discs. Here we study separately breaks in thin and thick discs in 70 edge-on g…

Hot Disks And Delayed Bar Formation

Kartik Sheth, Jason Melbourne, Debra Meloy Elmegreen +4

We present observational evidence for the inhibition of bar formation in dispersion-dominated (dynamically hot) galaxies by studying the relationship between galactic structure and…

A unified picture of breaks and truncations in spiral galaxies from SDSS and S^{4}G imaging

Ignacio Martín-Navarro, Judit Bakos, Ignacio Trujillo +21

The mechanism causing breaks in the radial surface brightness distribution of spiral galaxies is not yet well known. Despite theoretical efforts, there is not a unique explanation…

Hα Kinematics of S4G spiral galaxies-I. NGC 864

Santiago Erroz-Ferrer, Johan H. Knapen, Joan Font +22

We present a study of the kinematics of the isolated spiral galaxy NGC 864, using Hα Fabry-Perot data obtained with the GHαFaS instrument at the William Herschel Telescope in La Pa…

Constructing a WISE High Resolution Galaxy Atlas

T. H. Jarrett, F. Masci, C. W. Tsai +16

After eight months of continuous observations, the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mapped the entire sky at 3.4 μm, 4.6 μm, 12 μm and 22 μm. We have begun a dedicated WI…

Millimeter imaging of submillimeter galaxies in the COSMOS field: Redshift distribution

V. Smolcic, M. Aravena, F. Navarrete +21

We present new IRAM PdBI 1.3mm continuum observations at ~1.5" resolution of 28 SMGs previously discovered with the 870um bolometer LABOCA at APEX within the central 0.7deg2 of the…

Early type galaxies with tidal debris and their scaling relations in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G)

Taehyun Kim, Kartik Sheth, Joannah L. Hinz +21

Tidal debris around galaxies can yield important clues on their evolution. We have identified tidal debris in 11 early type galaxies (T \leq 0) from a sample of 65 early types draw…

Quest for COSMOS submillimeter galaxy counterparts using CARMA and VLA: Identifying three high-redshift starburst galaxies

V. Smolcic, F. Navarrete, M. Aravena +16

We report on interferometric observations at 1.3 mm at 2"-3" resolution using the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA). We identify multi-wavelength cou…

The S4G perspective on circumstellar dust extinction of AGB stars in M100

Sharon E. Meidt, Eva Schinnerer, Juan-Carlos Munoz-Mateos +19

We examine the effect of circumstellar dust extinction on the near-IR contribution of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in intermediate-age clusters throughout the disk of M100.…

The Advanced Camera for Surveys General Catalog: Structural Parameters for Approximately Half a Million Galaxies

Roger L. Griffith, Michael C. Cooper, Jeffrey A. Newman +18

We present the Advanced Camera for Surveys General Catalog (ACS-GC), a photometric and morphological database using publicly available data obtained with the Advanced Camera for Su…
