Spiral eigenmodes triggered by grooves in the phase space of disc galaxies
Sven De Rijcke, Ilya Voulis
We use linear perturbation theory to investigate how a groove in the phase space of a disc galaxy changes the stellar disc's stability properties. Such a groove is a narrow trough…
How the first stars shaped the faintest gas-dominated dwarf galaxies
Robbert Verbeke, Bert Vandenbroucke, Sven De Rijcke
Low-mass dwarf galaxies are very sensitive test-beds for theories of cosmic structure formation since their weak gravitational fields allow the effects of the relevant physical pro…
G2C2 - IV: A novel approach to study the radial distributions of multiple populations in Galactic globular clusters
Joachim Vanderbeke, Roberto De Propris, Sven De Rijcke +4
We use the HB morphology of 48 Galactic GCs to study the radial distributions of the different stellar populations known to exist in globular clusters. Assuming that the (extremely…
