GALEX colours of quasars and intergalactic medium opacity at low redshift
J. -M. Deharveng, B. Milliard, C. Peroux +1
The distribution of neutral hydrogen in the intergalactic medium (IGM) is currently explored at low-z by means of UV spectroscopy of quasars. We propose an alternative approach bas…
The Recent Star Formation in NGC 6822: an Ultraviolet Study
Boryana V. Efremova, Luciana Bianchi, David A. Thilker +15
We characterize the star formation in the low-metallicity galaxy NGC 6822 over the past few hundred million years, using GALEX far-UV (FUV, 1344-1786 A) and near-UV (NUV, 1771-2831…
NGC 404, A Rejuvenated Lenticular Galaxy on a Merger-Induced, Blueward Excursion into the Green Valley
David A. Thilker, Luciana Bianchi, David Schiminovich +14
We have discovered recent star formation in the outermost portion (1-4x R_25) of the nearby lenticular (S0) galaxy NGC 404 using GALEX UV imaging. FUV-bright sources are strongly c…
The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey: Survey Design and First Data Release
Michael J. Drinkwater, Russell J. Jurek, Chris Blake +24
The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey is a survey of 240,000 emission line galaxies in the distant universe, measured with the AAOmega spectrograph on the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope…
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…
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…
