White dwarf -- red giant star binaries as Type Ia supernova progenitors: with and without magnetic confinement
Iminhaji Ablimit, Philipp Podsiadlowski, Rosanne Di Stefano +2
Various white-dwarf (WD) binary scenarios have been proposed trying to understand the nature and the diversity of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). In this work, we study the evolution…
Stellar Core-Merger-Induced Collapse: New Formation Pathways for Black Holes, Thorne-ytkow objects, Magnetars and Superluminous Supernovae
Iminhaji Ablimit, Philipp Podsiadlowski, Ryosuke Hirai +1
Most neutron stars (NSs) and black holes (BHs) are believed to be the final remnants in the evolution of massive stars. In this study, we propose a new formation channel for the fo…
Edge-on HI-bearing ultra diffuse galaxy candidates in the 40% ALFALFA catalog
Min He, Hong Wu, Wei Du +4
Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are objects which have very extended morphology and faint central surface brightness. Most UDGs are discovered in galaxy clusters and groups, but also…
Molecular Gas and Star-Formation In Low Surface Brightness Galaxies
Tian-Wen Cao, Hong Wu, Wei Du +12
We have obtained CO(J=2-1) spectra of nine face-on low surface brightness galaxies(LSBGs) using the JCMT 15-meter telescope and observed Ha images using the 2.16-meter telescope of…
Clustering of Local Group distances: publication bias or correlated measurements? I. The Large Magellanic Cloud
Richard de Grijs, James E. Wicker, Giuseppe Bono
The distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) represents a key local rung of the extragalactic distance ladder. Yet, the galaxy's distance modulus has long been an issue of cont…
Stochastic stellar cluster IMFs: Models and impact on integrated cluster parameter determination
P. Anders, R. Kotulla, R. de Grijs +1
Stellar clusters are regularly used to study the evolution of their host galaxy. Except for a few nearby galaxies, these studies rely on the interpretation of integrated cluster pr…
