Evidence for a non-universal stellar initial mass function in low-redshift high-density early-type galaxies

Aaron A. Dutton, J. Trevor Mendel, Luc Simard

We determine an absolute calibration of stellar mass-to-light ratios for the densest \simeq 3% of early-type galaxies in the local universe (redshift z\simeq 0.08) from SDSS DR7. T…

Clustering properties of BzK-selected galaxies in GOODS-N: environmental quenching and triggering of star formation at z ~ 2

Lihwai Lin, Mark Dickinson, Hung-Yu Jian +19

Using a sample of BzK-selected galaxies at z~2 identified from the CFHT/WIRCAM near-infrared survey of GOODS-North, we discuss the relation between star formation rate (SFR), speci…

A Catalog of Bulge+Disk Decompositions and Updated Photometry for 1.12 Million Galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Luc Simard, J. Trevor Mendel, David R. Patton +2

We perform two-dimensional, Point-Spread-Function-convolved, bulge+disk decompositions in the and bandpasses on a sample of 1,123,718 galaxies from the Legacy area of the S…

The impact of gas inflows on star formation rates and metallicities in barred galaxies

Sara L. Ellison, Preethi Nair, David R. Patton +3

The star formation rates (SFRs) and metallicities of a sample of 294 galaxies with visually classified, strong, large-scale bars are compared to a control sample of unbarred disk g…

Compact groups in theory and practice -- IV. The connection to large-scale structure

J. Trevor Mendel, Sara L. Ellison, Luc Simard +2

We investigate the properties of photometrically-selected compact groups (CGs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. In this paper, the fourth in a series, we focus on understanding the…

CANDELS: The Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey

Norman A. Grogin, Dale D. Kocevski, S. M. Faber +104

The Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS) is designed to document the first third of galactic evolution, over the approximate redshift (z) range…

Gas flows in galaxies: the relative importance of mergers and bars

Sara L. Ellison, David R. Patton, Preethi Nair +4

Galaxy-galaxy interactions and large scale galaxy bars are usually considered as the two main mechanisms for driving gas to the centres of galaxies. By using large samples of galax…

AEGIS: The Morphologies of Green Galaxies at 0.4<z<1.2

Alexander J. Mendez, Alison L. Coil, Jennifer Lotz +3

We present quantitative morphologies of ~300 galaxies in the optically-defined green valley at 0.4<z<1.2, in order to constrain the mechanism(s) responsible for quenching star form…
