Monte Carlo estimation of the probability of causal contacts between communicating civilisations
Marcelo Lares, José Funes, Luciana Gramajo
In this work we address the problem of estimating the probabilities of causal contacts between civilisations in the Galaxy. We make no assumptions regarding the origin and evolutio…
A GALEX Ultraviolet Imaging Survey of Galaxies in the Local Volume
Janice C. Lee, Armando Gil de Paz, Robert C. Kennicutt +9
We present results from a GALEX ultraviolet (UV) survey of a complete sample of 390 galaxies within ~11 Mpc of the Milky Way. The UV data are a key component of the composite Local…
The Calibration of Monochromatic Far-Infrared Star Formation Rate Indicators
D. Calzetti, S. -Y. Wu, S. Hong +23
(Abridged) Spitzer data at 24, 70, and 160 micron and ground-based H-alpha images are analyzed for a sample of 189 nearby star-forming and starburst galaxies to investigate whether…
The Spitzer Local Volume Legacy: Survey Description and Infrared Photometry
D. A. Dale, S. A. Cohen, L. C. Johnson +21
The survey description and the near-, mid-, and far-infrared flux properties are presented for the 258 galaxies in the Local Volume Legacy (LVL). LVL is a Spitzer Space Telescope l…
Minor-axis velocity gradients in disk galaxies
L. Coccato, E. M. Corsini, A. Pizzella +3
We present the ionized-gas kinematics and photometry of a sample of 4 spiral galaxies which are characterized by a zero-velocity plateau along the major axis and a velocity gradien…
Dark matter in early-type spiral galaxies: the case of NGC 2179 and of NGC 2775
E. M. Corsini, A. Pizzella, M. Sarzi +6
We present stellar and ionized-gas velocity curves and velocity dispersion profiles for the Sa galaxies NGC 2179 and NGC 2775. Using their luminosity profiles and modeling both the…
