Galaxy And Mass Assembly: A Comparison between Galaxy-Galaxy Lens Searches in KiDS/GAMA

Shawn Knabel, Rebecca L. Steele, Benne W. Holwerda +9

Strong gravitational lenses are a rare and instructive type of astronomical object. Identification has long relied on serendipity, but different strategies -- such as mixed spectro…

The Sizes of Galaxies Identified in the BoRG Survey

Benne W. Holwerda, Joanna S. Bridge, Rebecca L. Steele +5

Redshift object selection is the effective limit of Hubble Space Telescope imaging capability, even when confirmed with Spitzer. If only a few photometry data points are…

The frequency of dust lanes in edge-on spiral galaxies identified by Galaxy Zoo in KiDS imaging of GAMA targets

B. W. Holwerda, L. Kelvin, I. Baldry +20

Dust lanes bisect the plane of a typical edge-on spiral galaxy as a dark optical absorption feature. Their appearance is linked to the gravitational stability of spiral disks; the…

The Super Eight Galaxies: Properties of a Sample of Very Bright Galaxies at

Joanna S. Bridge, Benne W. Holwerda, Mauro Stefanon +12

We present the Super Eight galaxies - a set of very luminous, high-redshift () galaxy candidates found in Brightest of Reionizing Galaxies (BoRG) Survey fields. The orig…

Substellar and low-mass dwarf identification with near-infrared imaging space observatories

B. W. Holwerda, J. S. Bridge, R. Ryan +9

AIMS: We aim to evaluate the near-infrared colors of brown dwarfs as observed with four major infrared imaging space observatories: the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), the James Webb…
