The SAMI Galaxy Survey: galaxy spin is more strongly correlated with stellar population age than mass or environment
S. M. Croom, J. van de Sande, S. P. Vaughan +17
We use the SAMI Galaxy Survey to examine the drivers of galaxy spin, , in a multi-dimensional parameter space including stellar mass, stellar population age (or specific s…
The SAMI galaxy survey: predicting kinematic morphology with logistic regression
Sam P. Vaughan, Jesse van de Sande, A. Fraser-McKelvie +10
We use the SAMI galaxy survey to study the the kinematic morphology-density relation: the observation that the fraction of slow rotator galaxies increases towards dense environment…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Using Tidal Streams and Shells to Trace the Dynamical Evolution of Massive Galaxies
Tomas H. Rutherford, Jesse van de Sande, Scott M. Croom +14
Slow rotator galaxies are distinct amongst galaxy populations, with simulations suggesting that a mix of minor and major mergers are responsible for their formation. A promising pa…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Using concentrated star-formation and stellar population ages to understand environmental quenching
Di Wang, Scott M. Croom, Julia J. Bryant +16
We study environmental quenching using the spatial distribution of current star-formation and stellar population ages with the full SAMI Galaxy Survey. By using a star-formation co…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: The relationship between galaxy rotation and the motion of neighbours
Yifan Mai, Sam P. Vaughan, Scott M. Croom +12
Using data from the SAMI Galaxy Survey, we investigate the correlation between the projected stellar kinematic spin vector of 1397 SAMI galaxies and the line-of-sight motion of the…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Revisiting Galaxy Classification Through High-Order Stellar Kinematics
Jesse van de Sande, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Lisa M. R. Fogarty +36
Recent cosmological hydrodynamical simulations suggest that integral field spectroscopy can connect the high-order stellar kinematic moments h3 (~skewness) and h4 (~kurtosis) in ga…
