WISE x SuperCOSMOS photometric redshift catalog: 20 million galaxies over 3pi steradians
M. Bilicki, J. A. Peacock, T. H. Jarrett +14
We cross-match the two currently largest all-sky photometric catalogs, mid-infrared WISE and SuperCOSMOS scans of UKST/POSS-II photographic plates, to obtain a new galaxy sample th…
Connecting Transitions in Galaxy Properties to Refueling
Sheila J. Kannappan, David V. Stark, Kathleen D. Eckert +12
We relate transitions in galaxy structure and gas content to refueling, here defined to include both the external gas accretion and the internal gas processing needed to renew rese…
Extended UV Disks and UV-Bright Disks in Low-Mass E/S0 Galaxies
Amanda J. Moffett, Sheila J. Kannappan, Andrew J. Baker +1
We have identified 15 XUV disks in a largely field sample of 38 E/S0 galaxies with stellar masses primarily below ~4 x 10^10 M_sun and comparable numbers on the red and blue sequen…
The Color-Dependent Frequency of XUV Disks In Low-Mass E/S0s
Amanda J. Moffett, Sheila J. Kannappan, Andrew J. Baker +1
We identify a high frequency of Type 1 XUV disks, reflecting recent outer disk star formation, in a sample of 31 E/S0s with stellar masses primarily below M_* ~ 4 x 10^10 M_sun. Ou…
Extended Light in E/S0 Galaxies and Implications for Disk Rebirth
Amanda J. Moffett, Sheila J. Kannappan, Seppo Laine +3
The recent discovery of extended ultraviolet (XUV) disks around a large fraction of late-type galaxies provides evidence for unexpectedly large-scale disk building at recent epochs…
The Automatic Galaxy Collision Software
Beverly J. Smith, Chris Carver, Phillip Pfeiffer +10
The key to understanding the physical processes that occur during galaxy interactions is dynamical modeling, and especially the detailed matching of numerical models to specific sy…
