Observations of the Initial Formation and Evolution of Spiral galaxies at in the CANDELS fields

Berta Margalef-Bentabol, Christopher J. Conselice, Boris Haeussler +4

Many aspects concerning the formation of spiral and disc galaxies remain unresolved, despite their discovery and detailed study over the past years. As such, we present the r…

Galaxy Zoo: Unwinding the Winding Problem - Observations of Spiral Bulge Prominence and Arm Pitch Angles Suggest Local Spiral Galaxies are Winding

Karen L. Masters, Chris J. Lintott, Ross E. Hart +8

We use classifications provided by citizen scientists though Galaxy Zoo to investigate the correlation between bulge size and arm winding in spiral galaxies. Whilst the traditional…

Federating distributed storage for clouds in ATLAS

Frank Berghaus, Kevin Casteels, Alessandro Di Girolamo +12

Input data for applications that run in cloud computing centres can be stored at distant repositories, often with multiple copies of the popular data stored at many sites. Locating…

Galaxy Zoo: star-formation versus spiral arm number

Ross E. Hart, Steven P. Bamford, Kevin R. V Casteels +3

Spiral arms are common features in low-redshift disc galaxies, and are prominent sites of star-formation and dust obscuration. However, spiral structure can take many forms: from g…

Leaving the dark ages with AMIGA

Alberto Manrique, Eduard Salvador-Solé, Enric Juan +6

We present an Analytic Model of Intergalactic-medium and GAlaxy evolution since the dark ages. AMIGA is in the spirit of the popular semi-analytic models of galaxy formation, altho…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Refining the Local Galaxy Merger Rate using Morphological Information

Kevin R. V. Casteels, Christopher J. Conselice, Steven P. Bamford +16

We use the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey to measure the local Universe mass dependent merger fraction and merger rate using galaxy pairs and the CAS structural method, whi…
