New classification method for the dynamical state of galaxy clusters with a Gaussian mixture model

Hyowon Kim, Marco Canducci, Rory Smith +5

Galaxy clusters are the largest gravitationally bound systems, and they continue their growth through mergers in a hierarchical ΛCDM Universe. Therefore, we can describe the merger…

Two faces of Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus: Mining the chemical abundance space with graph attention networks

Milan Quandt-Rodriguez, Sara Lucatello, Lorenzo Spina +2

Recent studies suggest that chemical abundances hold the key to disentangling halo substructure, providing a more reliable tracer than dynamics alone. We aim to probe the Milky Way…

The role of supercluster filaments in shaping galaxy clusters

Raúl Baier-Soto, Yara Jaffé, Alexis Finoguenov +44

In a hierarchical CDM Universe, cosmic filaments serve as the primary channels for matter accretion into galaxy clusters, influencing the shape of their dark matter halos. We in…

Deep chemical tagging -- Identifying open clusters and moving groups in chemical space with graph attention networks

Lorenzo Spina, Milan Quandt Rodriguez, Laura Magrini +3

Reconstructing the formation history of the Milky Way is hindered by stellar migration, which erases kinematic birth signatures. In contrast, stellar chemical abundances remain sta…

Discriminative Subspace Emersion from learning feature relevances across different populations

Marco Canducci, Lida Abdi, Alessandro Prete +4

In a given classification task, the accuracy of the learner is often hampered by finiteness of the training set, high-dimensionality of the feature space and severe overlap between…

1-DREAM: 1D Recovery, Extraction and Analysis of Manifolds in noisy environments

Marco Canducci, Petra Awad, Abolfazl Taghribi +7

Filaments are ubiquitous in astronomical data sets. Be it in particle simulations or observations, filaments are always tracers of a perturbation in the equilibrium of the studied…

More than a void? The detection and characterization of cavities in a simulated galaxy's interstellar medium

Abolfazl Taghribi, Marco Canducci, Michele Mastropietro +4

The interstellar medium of galaxies is filled with holes, bubbles, and shells, typically interpreted as remnants of stellar evolution. There is growing interest in the study of the…

: New insights from deep spectroscopic observations of the tidal tails of the globular clusters NGC 1261 and NGC 1904

Petra Awad, Ting S. Li, Denis Erkal +22

As globular clusters (GCs) orbit the Milky Way, their stars are tidally stripped forming tidal tails that follow the orbit of the clusters around the Galaxy. The morphology of thes…

The large-scale structure around the Fornax-Eridanus Complex

Maria Angela Raj, Petra Awad, Reynier F. Peletier +7

Our objectives are to map the filamentary network around the Fornax-Eridanus Complex and probe the influence of the local environment on galaxy morphology. We employ the novel mach…

Swarming in stellar streams: Unveiling the structure of the Jhelum stream with ant colony-inspired computation

Petra Awad, Marco Canducci, Eduardo Balbinot +8

The halo of the Milky Way galaxy hosts multiple dynamically coherent substructures known as stellar streams that are remnants of tidally disrupted systems such as globular clusters…

Swarm Intelligence-based Extraction and Manifold Crawling Along the Large-Scale Structure

Petra Awad, Reynier Peletier, Marco Canducci +6

The distribution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies on the mega-parsec scale of the Universe follows an intricate pattern now famously known as the Large-Scale Structure or the C…
