Warped diffusive radio halo around the quiescent spiral edge-on galaxy NGC 4565

V. Heesen, L. Whitler, P. Schmidt +12

Cosmic rays play a pivotal role in launching galactic winds, particularly in quiescently star-forming galaxies where the hot gas alone is not sufficient to drive a wind. Except for…

Systematic search for tidal features around nearby galaxies: I. Enhanced SDSS imaging of the Local Volume

Gustavo Morales, David Martínez-Delgado, Eva K. Grebel +3

In hierarchical models of galaxy formation, stellar tidal streams are expected around most, if not all, galaxies. Although these features may provide useful diagnostics of the C…

CHANG-ES XI: Circular Polarization in the Cores of Nearby Galaxies

Judith A Irwin, Richard N. Henriksen, Marek Wezgowiec +18

We detect 5 galaxies in the CHANG-ES (Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies -- an EVLA Survey) sample that show circular polarization (CP) at L-band in our high resolution data sets.…

CHANG-ES IX: Radio scale heights and scale lengths of a consistent sample of 13 spiral galaxies seen edge-on and their correlations

Marita Krause, Judith Irwin, Theresa Wiegert +14

The vertical halo scale height is a crucial parameter to understand the transport of cosmic-ray electrons (CRE) and their energy loss mechanisms in spiral galaxies. Until now, the…
