Photometric stellar masses for galaxies in DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys
Ivana Ebrová, Michal Bílek, Jiří Eliášek
In many areas of extragalactic astrophysics, we need to convert the luminosity of a galaxy into its stellar mass. In this work, we aim to find a simple and effective formula to est…
Ubiquitous signs of interactions in early-type galaxies with prolate rotation
Ivana Ebrová, Michal Bílek, Ana Vudragović +2
A small fraction of early-type galaxies (ETGs) show prolate rotation, i.e. they rotate around their long photometric axis. In simulations, certain configurations of galaxy mergers…
Galaxies with kinematically distinct cores in Illustris
Ivana Ebrová, Ewa L. Łokas, Jiří Eliášek
The growing amount of integral-field spectroscopic data creates an increased demand for understanding kinematic peculiarities that carry valuable information about the evolution of…
Utilizing Shell Galaxies
Ivana Ebrová, Michal Bílek, Bruno Jungwiert
Stellar shells are low surface brightness features in the form of open, concentric arcs, formed in close-to-radial collisions of galaxies. They occur in at least 10% of early-type…
NGC 4993, the shell galaxy host of GW170817: constraints on the recent galactic merger
Ivana Ebrová, Michal Bílek, Mustafa K. Yıldız +1
NGC 4993 is the shell galaxy host of the GRB170817A short gamma-ray burst and the GW170817 gravitational-wave event produced during a binary-neutron-star coalescence. The galaxy sh…
Deep imaging of the shell elliptical galaxy NGC3923 with MegaCam
Michal Bílek, Jean-Charles Cuillandre, Stephen Gwyn +4
Context. The elliptical galaxy NGC 3923 is known to be surrounded by a number of stellar shells, probable remnants of an accreted galaxy. Despite its uniqueness, the deepest images…
MOND prediction of a new giant shell in the elliptical galaxy NGC3923
M. Bílek, K. Bartošková, I. Ebrová +1
Context. Stellar shells, which form axially symmetric systems of arcs in some elliptical galaxies, are most likely remnants of radial minor mergers. They are observed up a radius o…
