The Effect of Environment on Galaxy Spiral Arms, Bars, Concentration, and Quenching
Beverly J. Smith, Mark L. Giroux, Curtis Struck
For a sample of 4378 nearby spiral and S0 galaxies, Yu and Ho (2020) used Fourier analysis of Sloan Digital Sky Survey images to show that the strengths of the spiral arms and the…
Revealing the Double Nucleus of NGC 4490
AL Lawrence, C. R. Kerton, Curtis Struck +1
NGC 4490/85 (UGC 7651/48) or Arp 269 is well known for being one of the closest interacting/merging galactic systems. NGC 4490 has a high star formation rate (SFR) and is surrounde…
The Hot Gas Exhaust of Starburst Engines in Mergers: Testing Models of Stellar Feedback and Star Formation Regulation
Beverly J. Smith, Peter Wagstaff, Curtis Struck +4
Using archival data from the Chandra X-ray telescope, we have measured the spatial extent of the hot interstellar gas in a sample of 49 nearby interacting galaxy pairs, mergers, an…
Diffuse X-ray-emitting Gas in Major Mergers
Beverly J. Smith, Kristen Campbell, Curtis Struck +5
Using archived data from the Chandra X-ray telescope, we have extracted the diffuse X-ray emission from 49 equal-mass interacting/merging galaxy pairs in a merger sequence, from wi…
Stellar Population Synthesis of star forming clumps in galaxy pairs and non-interacting spiral galaxies
Javier Zaragoza-Cardiel, Beverly J. Smith, Margarita Rosado +5
We have identified 1027 star forming complexes in a sample of 46 galaxies from the Spirals, Bridges, and Tails (SB&T) sample of interacting galaxies, and 693 star forming complexes…
A Comparative Study of Knots of Star Formation in Interacting vs. Spiral Galaxies
Beverly J. Smith, Javier Zaragoza-Cardiel, Curtis Struck +2
Interacting galaxies are known to have higher global rates of star formation on average than normal galaxies, relative to their stellar masses. Using UV and IR photometry combined…
