Galaxy Zoo: Morphological Classifications for 120,000 Galaxies in HST Legacy Imaging

Kyle W. Willett, Melanie A. Galloway, Steven P. Bamford +18

We present the data release paper for the Galaxy Zoo: Hubble (GZH) project. This is the third phase in a large effort to measure reliable, detailed morphologies of galaxies by usin…

Galaxy Zoo: Mergers - Dynamical Models of Interacting Galaxies

Anthony J. Holincheck, John F. Wallin, Kirk Borne +6

The dynamical history of most merging galaxies is not well understood. Correlations between galaxy interaction and star formation have been found in previous studies, but require t…

Galaxy Zoo: An independent look at the evolution of the bar fraction over the last eight billion years from HST-COSMOS

Thomas Melvin, Karen Masters, Chris Lintott +11

We measure the redshift evolution of the bar fraction in a sample of 2380 visually selected disc galaxies found in Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) Hubble Space Telescope (HST) ima…

Small-scale structure of the interstellar medium towards rho Oph stars: diffuse band observations

Martin A. Cordiner, Stephen J. Fossey, Arfon M. Smith +1

We present an investigation of small-scale-structure in the distribution of large molecules/dust in the interstellar medium through observations of diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs…

Galaxy Zoo: Quantifying Morphological Indicators of Galaxy Interaction

Kevin R. V. Casteels, Steven P. Bamford, Ramin A. Skibba +6

We use Galaxy Zoo 2 visual classifications to study the morphological signatures of interaction between similar-mass galaxy pairs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We find that many…
