The Gas Morphology of Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies
S. K. Stuber, E. Schinnerer, T. G. Williams +22
The morphology of a galaxy stems from secular and environmental processes during its evolutionary history. Thus galaxy morphologies have been a long used tool to gain insights on g…
Dense gas is not enough: environmental variations in the star formation efficiency of dense molecular gas at 100pc scales in M51
M. Querejeta, E. Schinnerer, A. Schruba +17
It remains unclear what sets the efficiency with which molecular gas transforms into stars. Here we present a new VLA map of the spiral galaxy M51 in 33GHz radio continuum, an exti…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. Bulge-disc structural coupling resulting from major mergers
M. Querejeta, M. C. Eliche-Moral, T. Tapia +4
Observations reveal a strong structural coupling between bulge and disc in S0 galaxies, which seems difficult to explain if they have formed from supposedly catastrophic events suc…
Being WISE I: Validating Stellar Population Models and M/L ratios at 3.4 and 4.6 microns
Mark A. Norris, Sharon Meidt, Glenn Van de Ven +3
Using data from the WISE mission, we have measured near infra-red (NIR) photometry of a diverse sample of dust-free stellar systems (globular clusters, dwarf and giant early-type g…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. V. Antitruncated stellar discs resulting from major mergers
Alejandro Borlaff, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Cristina Rodríguez-Pérez +6
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) are more likely to host antitruncated (Type-III) stellar discs than galaxies of later Hubble types. Major mergers are popularly considered too violent mec…
Evolution induced by dry minor mergers onto fast-rotator S0 galaxies
Trinidad Tapia, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Miguel Querejeta +9
We analysed collisionless N-body simulations of intermediate and minor dry mergers onto S0s to test whether these mergers can generate S0 galaxies with kinematics intermediate betw…
