Hector Galaxy Survey: Falling in Between - Infalling Galaxies in the Midst of the Abell 3667 Merger

Oğuzhan Çakır, Matt Owers, Gabriella Quattropani +38

Whether cluster mergers enhance ram pressure stripping (RPS) and accelerate member galaxy evolution remains an open question. Here, we investigate galaxy populations in the nearby…

Hector Galaxy Survey: Optical IFU and Chandra Reveal a Low-Luminosity AGN Behind Extended LINER Emission

Kyuseok Oh, Gabriella Quattropani, Pratyush Kumar Das +25

We present evidence that the Hector Galaxy Survey galaxy C901005481609968 (), which exhibits spatially extended LINER-like emission in optical integral-field spe…

Hector Galaxy Survey: Linking the low- and high-mass ends of the initial mass function in star-forming galaxies

Diego Salvador, Andrew Hopkins, Matt Owers +30

The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is a fundamental ingredient in galaxy evolution, linking observed integrated light to galaxy properties. Constraining the full IMF shape bey…

MAUVE-MUSE: When Metallicity Follows or Fights Star Formation -- A Mass-Dependent Inversion in Virgo Galaxies

Rongjun Huang, Luca Cortese, Barbara Catinella +11

Although globally-integrated studies often find that, at fixed stellar mass, high star formation rate (SFR) galaxies are relatively metal-poor while lower-SFR systems are more meta…

MAUVE-MUSE: Ionization and Kinematic Signatures of Environmental Effects on Virgo Cluster Disks

Toby Brown, Luca Cortese, Barbara Catinella +18

We present early science results from the MAUVE (Multiphase Astrophysics to Unveil the Virgo Environment) program which targets 40 Virgo Cluster galaxies to investigate the effect…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Quenching of Star Formation in Clusters III. Ram-Pressure-Affected Galaxy Populations

Oğuzhan Çakır, Matt S. Owers, Luca Cortese +15

Cluster environments influence galaxy evolution by curtailing star formation activity, notably through ram-pressure stripping (RPS). In this study, using spatially resolved spectro…

Large-scale and local environmental drivers of quenching: tracing H concentration in X-ray and optical galaxy groups

Stefania Barsanti, Di Wang, Matthew Colless +11

To explore the environmental mechanisms causing quenching in nearby star-forming galaxies, we study the variation with local and large-scale environments of a star formation concen…

MAUVE-MUSE: A Star Formation-driven Outflow Caught in the Act of Quenching the Stripped Virgo Galaxy NGC 4064

Amy Attwater, Barbara Catinella, Luca Cortese +10

The rapid quenching of satellite galaxies in dense environments is often attributed to environmental processes such as ram pressure stripping. However, stripping alone cannot fully…

Hector Galaxy Survey: Data Processing, Quality Control and Early Science

S. Oh, M. L. P. Gunawardhana, S. M. Croom +52

The Hector Galaxy Survey is a new optical integral field spectroscopy (IFS) survey currently using the AAT to observe up to 15,000 galaxies at low redshift (). The Hector…

The circular velocity and halo mass functions of galaxies in the nearby Universe

Andrei Ristea, Luca Cortese, Brent Groves +3

The circular velocity function (CVF) of galaxies is a fundamental test of the Cold Dark Matter (CDM) paradigm as it traces the variation of galaxy number densities with circula…

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: galaxy spin is more strongly correlated with stellar population age than mass or environment

S. M. Croom, J. van de Sande, S. P. Vaughan +17

We use the SAMI Galaxy Survey to examine the drivers of galaxy spin, , in a multi-dimensional parameter space including stellar mass, stellar population age (or specific s…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: drives the presence of complex emission line profiles in star-forming galaxies

Henry R. M. Zovaro, J. Trevor Mendel, Brent Groves +13

Galactic fountains driven by star formation result in a variety of kinematic structures such as ionised winds and thick gas disks, both of which manifest as complex emission line p…

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…
