Galaxy And Mass Assembly: A new approach to quantifying dust in galaxies
B. Farley, U. T. Ahmed, A. M. Hopkins +8
We introduce a new approach to quantifying dust in galaxies by combining information from the Balmer decrement (BD) and the dust mass (). While there is no explicit correlatio…
The Galaxy Zoo Catalogs for the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) Survey
Benne W. Holwerda, Clayton Robertson, Kyle Cook +16
Galaxy Zoo is an online project to classify morphological features in extra-galactic imaging surveys with public voting. In this paper, we compare the classifications made for two…
Exploring mass measurements of supermassive black holes in AGN using GAMA photometry and spectroscopy
Sarah Casura, Dragana Ilić, Jonathan Targaczewski +2
In the era of massive photometric surveys, we explore several approaches to estimate the masses of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in active galactic nuclei (AGN) from optical gro…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: On the importance of applying multiple selection criteria for finding Milky Way Analogues
Sujeeporn Tuntipong, Jesse van de Sande, Scott M. Croom +10
Milky Way Analogues (MWAs) provide an alternative insight into the various pathways that lead to the formation of disk galaxies with similar properties to the Milky Way. In this st…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: impact of star formation and AGN feedback processes on the ionized gas velocity dispersion
Sree Oh, Matthew Colless, Stefania Barsanti +12
We investigate the influence of star formation and instantaneous AGN feedback processes on the ionized gas velocity dispersion in a sample of 1285 emission-line galaxies with stell…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Using Tidal Streams and Shells to Trace the Dynamical Evolution of Massive Galaxies
Tomas H. Rutherford, Jesse van de Sande, Scott M. Croom +14
Slow rotator galaxies are distinct amongst galaxy populations, with simulations suggesting that a mix of minor and major mergers are responsible for their formation. A promising pa…
ProPane: Image Warping with Fire
A. S. G. Robotham, R. Tobar, S. Bellstedt +7
In this paper we introduce the software package ProPane, written for the R data analysis language. ProPane combines the full range of wcslib projections with the C++ image manipula…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: impact of black hole activity on galaxy spin-filament alignments
Stefania Barsanti, Matthew Colless, Francesco D'Eugenio +9
The activity of central supermassive black holes might affect the alignment of galaxy spin axes with respect to the closest cosmic filaments. We exploit the SAMI Galaxy Survey to s…
The Loneliest Galaxies in the Universe: A GAMA and GalaxyZoo Study on Void Galaxy Morphology
Lori E. Porter, Benne W. Holwerda, Sandor Kruk +5
The large-scale structure (LSS) of the Universe is comprised of galaxy filaments, tendrils, and voids. The majority of the Universe's volume is taken up by these voids, which exist…
Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Bulge-disk decomposition of KiDS and VIKING data in the nearby universe
Sarah Casura
In this thesis, we derive a catalogue of robust structural parameters for the components of a large sample of nearby GAMA galaxies while at the same time contributing to the advanc…
Comparison of the Stellar Populations of Bulges and Discs using the MaNGA Survey
Philip Lah, Nicholas Scott, Tania M. Barone +4
We use the MaNGA integral-field spectroscopic survey of low-redshift galaxies to compare the stellar populations of the bulge and disc components, identified from their Sersic prof…
Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): The Dependence of Star Formation on Surface Brightness in Low Redshift Galaxies
S. Phillipps, S. Bellstedt, M. N. Bremer +5
The star formation rate in galaxies is well known to correlate with stellar mass (the `star-forming main sequence'). Here we extend this further to explore any additional dependenc…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: flipping of the spin-filament alignment correlates most strongly with growth of the bulge
Stefania Barsanti, Matthew Colless, Charlotte Welker +8
We study the alignments of galaxy spin axes with respect to cosmic web filaments as a function of various properties of the galaxies and their constituent bulges and discs. We expl…
Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Bulge-disk decomposition of KiDS data in the nearby universe
Sarah Casura, Jochen Liske, Aaron S. G. Robotham +10
We derive single Sérsic fits and bulge-disk decompositions for 13096 galaxies at redshifts z < 0.08 in the GAMA II equatorial survey regions in the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) g, r a…
Galapagos-2/Galfitm/GAMA -- multi-wavelength measurement of galaxy structure: separating the properties of spheroid and disk components in modern surveys
Boris Häußler, Marina Vika, Steven P. Bamford +6
We present the capabilities of Galapagos--2 and Galfitm in the context of fitting 2-component profiles to galaxies, on the way to providing complete multi-band, multi-component fit…
