Inspiralling Supermassive Black Holes: A New Signpost for Galaxy Mergers
Julia M. Comerford, Brian F. Gerke, Jeffrey A. Newman +8
We present a new technique for observationally identifying galaxy mergers spectroscopically rather than through host galaxy imaging. Our technique exploits the dynamics of supermas…
X-ray selected AGN in groups at redshifts z~1
A. Georgakakis, Brian F. Gerke, K. Nandra +4
We explore the role of the group environment in the evolution of AGN at the redshift interval 0.7<z<1.4, by combining deep Chandra observations with extensive optical spectroscopy…
BH Accretion in Low-Mass Galaxies Since z~1
Yong Shi, George Rieke, Jennifer Donley +3
We have selected a sample of X-ray emitting active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in low-mass host galaxies (5e9-2e10 Msun) out to z~1. By comparing to AGNs in more massive hosts, we have…
The Role of Environment in the Mass-Metallicity Relation
Michael C. Cooper, Christy A. Tremonti, Jeffrey A. Newman +1
Using a sample of 57,377 star-forming galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we study the relationship between gas-phase oxygen abundance and environment in the local Un…
The DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: Environments of Poststarburst Galaxies at z~0.1 and z~0.8
Renbin Yan, Jeffrey A. Newman, S. M. Faber +6
Postststarburst (K+A) galaxies are candidates for galaxies in transition from a star-forming phase to a passively-evolving phase. We have spectroscopically identified large samples…
The Redshift Evolution of Wet, Dry, and Mixed Galaxy Mergers from Close Galaxy Pairs in the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey
Lihwai Lin, David R. Patton, David C. Koo +11
We study the redshift evolution of galaxy pair fractions and merger rates for different types of galaxies using kinematic pairs selected from the DEEP2 Redshift Survey. By paramete…
