The Local Hosts of Type Ia Supernovae

James D. Neill, Mark Sullivan, D. Andy Howell +18

We use multi-wavelength, matched aperture, integrated photometry from GALEX, SDSS and the RC3 to estimate the physical properties of 166 nearby galaxies hosting 168 well-observed T…

Tidal Dwarf Galaxies around a Post-merger Galaxy, NGC 4922

Yun-Kyeong Sheen, Hyunjin Jeong, Sukyoung K. Yi +20

One possible channel for the formation of dwarf galaxies involves birth in the tidal tails of interacting galaxies. We report the detection of a bright UV tidal tail and several yo…

Probing the Intermediate-Age Globular Clusters in NGC 5128 from Ultraviolet Observations

Soo-Chang Rey, Sangmo T. Sohn, Michael A. Beasley +23

We explore the age distribution of the globular cluster (GC) system of the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 5128 using ultraviolet (UV) photometry from Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX…

Studying Large and Small Scale Environments of Ultraviolet Luminous Galaxies

Antara R. Basu-Zych, David Schiminovich, Sebastien Heinis +23

Studying the environments of 0.4<z<1.2 UV-selected galaxies, as examples of extreme star-forming galaxies (with star formation rates in the range of 3-30 M_sol/yr), we explore the…

Spatial Clustering from GALEX-SDSS samples: Star Formation History and large-scale clustering

Sebastien Heinis, Tamas Budavari, Alex S. Szalay +19

We measure the projected spatial correlation function w_p(r_p) from a large sample combining GALEX ultraviolet imaging with the SDSS spectroscopic sample. We study the dependence o…

GALEX-SDSS Catalogs for Statistical Studies

T. Budavari, S. Heinis, A. S. Szalay +23

We present a detailed study of the Galaxy Evolution Explorer's photometric catalogs with special focus on the statistical properties of the All-sky and Medium Imaging Surveys. We i…
