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…
Illuminating the Physics of Cosmic Origin and Evolution: A UK Space Frontiers 2035 White Paper
Florian Beutler, Eva-Maria Mueller, Seshadri Nadathur +61
Understanding the Universe's origins and evolution remains one of the most fundamental challenges in modern cosmology. This white paper explores three key science priorities in thi…
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…
