The ALMaQUEST Survey: III. Scatter in the resolved star forming main sequence is primarily due to variations in star formation efficiency
Sara L. Ellison, Mallory D. Thorp, Lihwai Lin +6
Using a sample of 11,478 spaxels in 34 galaxies with molecular gas, star formation and stellar maps taken from the ALMA-MaNGA QUEnching and STar formation (ALMaQUEST) survey, we in…
Towards a deeper understanding of the physics driving galaxy quenching -- inferring trends in the gas content via extinction
Joanna Piotrowska, Asa F. L. Bluck, Roberto Maiolino +2
In order to investigate the importance of different proposed quenching mechanisms, we use an indirect method to estimate gas masses for ~62,000 SDSS DR7 galaxies. We infer gas surf…
Are galactic star formation and quenching governed by local, global or environmental phenomena?
Asa F. L. Bluck, Roberto Maiolino, Sebastian Sanchez +5
We present an analysis of star formation and quenching in the SDSS-IV MaNGA-DR15, utilising over 5 million spaxels from 3500 local galaxies. We estimate star formation rate s…
Optimising Automatic Morphological Classification of Galaxies with Machine Learning and Deep Learning using Dark Energy Survey Imaging
Ting-Yun Cheng, Christopher J. Conselice, Alfonso Aragón-Salamanca +13
There are several supervised machine learning methods used for the application of automated morphological classification of galaxies; however, there has not yet been a clear compar…
Interacting galaxies on FIRE-2: The connection between enhanced star formation and interstellar gas content
Jorge Moreno, Paul Torrey, Sara L. Ellison +8
We present a comprehensive suite of high-resolution (parsec-scale), idealised (non-cosmological) galaxy merger simulations (24 runs, stellar mass ratio ~2.5:1) to investigate the c…
What shapes a galaxy? - Unraveling the role of mass, environment and star formation in forming galactic structure
Asa F. L. Bluck, Connor Bottrell, Hossen Teimoorinia +9
We investigate the dependence of galaxy structure on a variety of galactic and environmental parameters for ~500,000 galaxies at z<0.2, taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data…
