Deep learning predictions of galaxy merger stage and the importance of observational realism
Connor Bottrell, Maan H. Hani, Hossen Teimoorinia +7
Machine learning is becoming a popular tool to quantify galaxy morphologies and identify mergers. However, this technique relies on using an appropriate set of training data to be…
What shapes a galaxy? - Unraveling the role of mass, environment and star formation in forming galactic structure
Asa F. L. Bluck, Connor Bottrell, Hossen Teimoorinia +9
We investigate the dependence of galaxy structure on a variety of galactic and environmental parameters for ~500,000 galaxies at z<0.2, taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data…
Near-Infrared Survey and Photometric Redshifts in the Extended GOODS-North field
Li-Ting Hsu, Lihwai Lin, Mark Dickinson +22
We present deep and -band images in the extended Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey-North (GOODS-N) field covering an area of 0.22 . The observations were…
Spatially resolved star formation and metallicity profiles in post-merger galaxies from MaNGA
Mallory D. Thorp, Sara L. Ellison, Luc Simard +2
Large galaxy surveys have demonstrated that galaxy-galaxy mergers can dramatically change the morphologies, star formation rates (SFRs) and metallicities of their constituents. How…
Discovery of a dual active galactic nucleus with ~ 8 kpc separation
Sara L. Ellison, Nathan J. Secrest, J. Trevor Mendel +2
Targeted searches for dual active galactic nuclei (AGN), with separations 1 -- 10 kpc, have yielded relatively few successes. A recent pilot survey by Satyapal et al. has demonstra…
Galaxies in the Illustris simulation as seen by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey - II: Size-luminosity relations and the deficit of bulge-dominated galaxies in Illustris at low mass
Connor Bottrell, Paul Torrey, Luc Simard +1
The interpretive power of the newest generation of large-volume hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation rests upon their ability to reproduce the observed properties of gala…
