An extended dust disk in a spiral galaxy; An occulting galaxy pair in ANGST

B. W. Holwerda, W. C. Keel, B. Williams +2

We present an analysis of an occulting galaxy pair, serendipitously discovered in ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury (ANGST) observations of NGC 253 taken with Hubble Space Telescop…

Spitzer's View of Edge-on Spirals

B. W. Holwerda, R. S. de Jong, A. Seth +4

Edge-on spiral galaxies offer a unique perspective on disks. One can accurately determine the height distribution of stars and ISM and the line-of-sight integration allows for the…

GHOSTS | Bulges, Halos, and the Resolved Stellar Outskirts of Massive Disk Galaxies

Roelof S. de Jong, David J. Radburn-Smith, Jonathan N. Sick

In hierarchical galaxy formation the stellar halos of galaxies are formed by the accretion of minor satellites and therefore contain valuable information about the (early) assembly…

The Vertical Structure of Stars in Edge-on Galaxies

Anil Seth, Julianne Dalcanton, Roelof de Jong

We present a summary of our recent work on the vertical distribution of the resolved stellar populations in six low mass, edge-on, spiral galaxies observed with the Hubble Space Te…

Properties of Dark Matter Halos in Disk Galaxies

Roelof S. de Jong, Susan Kassin, Eric F. Bell +1

We present a simple technique to estimate mass-to-light (M/L) ratios of stellar populations based on two broadband photometry measurements, i.e. a color-M/L relation. We apply the…
