Heavily Obscured Quasar Host Galaxies at z~2 are Disks, Not Major Mergers
Kevin Schawinski, Brooke D. Simmons, Megan Urry +2
We explore the nature of heavily obscured quasar host galaxies at z~2 using deep Hubble Space Telescope WFC3/IR imaging of 28 Dust Obscured Galaxies (DOGs) to investigate the role…
Chandra Observations of Galaxy Zoo Mergers: Frequency of Binary Active Nuclei in Massive Mergers
Stacy H. Teng, Kevin Schawinski, C. Megan Urry +9
We present the results from a Chandra pilot study of 12 massive galaxy mergers selected from Galaxy Zoo. The sample includes major mergers down to a host galaxy mass of 10 $…
Galaxy Zoo and ALFALFA: Atomic Gas and the Regulation of Star Formation in Barred Disc Galaxies
Karen L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol, Martha P. Haynes +7
We study the observed correlation between atomic gas content and the likelihood of hosting a large scale bar in a sample of 2090 disc galaxies. Such a test has never been done befo…
