Galaxy Zoo: Quantitative Visual Morphological Classifications for 48,000 galaxies from CANDELS

B. D. Simmons, Chris Lintott, Kyle W. Willett +45

We present quantified visual morphologies of approximately 48,000 galaxies observed in three Hubble Space Telescope legacy fields by the Cosmic And Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic…

A Multiple Dry Merger at z=0.18: Witnessing The Assembly of a Massive Elliptical Galaxy

M. E. Filho, P. Brochado, J. Brinchmann +4

Mergers of gas-poor galaxies, so-called dry mergers, may play a fundamental role in the assembly of the most massive galaxies, and therefore, in galaxy formation theories. Using th…

Evidence for a correlation between the sizes of quiescent galaxies and local environment to z ~ 2

Caterina Lani, Omar Almaini, William G. Hartley +14

We present evidence for a strong relationship between galaxy size and environment for the quiescent population in the redshift range 1 < z < 2. Environments were measured using pro…

Tidal interactions at the edge of the Local Group: New evidence for tidal features in the Antlia Dwarf Galaxy

Samantha J. Penny, Kevin A. Pimbblet, Christopher J. Conselice +3

Using deep B band imaging down to mu_{B} = 26 mag arcsec^{-2}, we present evidence for tidal tails in the Antlia Dwarf galaxy, one of the most distant members of the Local Group. T…

Gas Accretion as a Dominant Formation Mode in Massive Galaxies from the GOODS NICMOS Survey

Christopher J. Conselice, Alice Mortlock, Asa F. L. Bluck +2

The ability to resolve all processes which drive galaxy formation is one of the most fundamental goals in extragalactic astronomy. While star formation rates and the merger history…

Suppression of Star Formation in the central 200 kpc of a z = 1.4 Galaxy Cluster [Erratum added]

Ruth Grutzbauch, Amanda. E. Bauer, Inger Jorgensen +1

We present the results of an extended narrow-band Hα study of the massive galaxy cluster XMMU J2235.3-2557 at z = 1.39. This paper represents a follow up study to our previous inve…
