The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Global stellar populations on the size-mass plane

Nicholas Scott, S. Brough, Scott M. Croom +20

We present an analysis of the global stellar populations of galaxies in the SAMI Galaxy Survey. Our sample consists of 1319 galaxies spanning four orders of magnitude in stellar ma…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Data Release One with Emission-line Physics Value-Added Products

Andrew W. Green, Scott M. Croom, Nicholas Scott +48

We present the first major release of data from the SAMI Galaxy Survey. This data release focuses on the emission-line physics of galaxies. Data Release One includes data for 772 g…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Revising the Fraction of Slow Rotators in IFS Galaxy Surveys

Jesse van de Sande, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Sarah Brough +15

The fraction of galaxies supported by internal rotation compared to galaxies stabilized by internal pressure provides a strong constraint on galaxy formation models. In integral fi…

The KMOS Redshift One Spectroscopic Survey (KROSS): the origin of disk turbulence in z~0.9 star-forming galaxies

H. L. Johnson, C. M. Harrison, A. M. Swinbank +27

We analyse the velocity dispersion properties of 472 z~0.9 star-forming galaxies observed as part of the KMOS Redshift One Spectroscopic Survey (KROSS). The majority of this sample…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: energy sources of the turbulent velocity dispersion in spatially-resolved local star-forming galaxies

Luwenjia Zhou, Christoph Federrath, Tiantian Yuan +16

We investigate the energy sources of random turbulent motions of ionised gas from H emission in eight local star-forming galaxies from the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field…

The Taipan Galaxy Survey: Scientific Goals and Observing Strategy

Elisabete da Cunha, Andrew M. Hopkins, Matthew Colless +37

Taipan is a multi-object spectroscopic galaxy survey starting in 2017 that will cover 2pi steradians over the southern sky, and obtain optical spectra for about two million galaxie…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): The environments of high- and low- excitation radio galaxies

J. H. Y. Ching, S. M. Croom, E. M. Sadler +18

We study the environments of low- and high- excitation radio galaxies (LERGs and HERGs respectively) in the redshift range , using a sample of 399 radio galaxies an…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Kinematics of Dusty Early-Type Galaxies

Robert Bassett, K. Bekki, L. Cortese +19

Recently, large samples of visually classified early-type galaxies (ETGs) containing dust have been identified using space-based infrared observations with the Herschel Space Teles…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: mass as the driver of the kinematic morphology - density relation in clusters

Sarah Brough, Jesse van de Sande, Matt S. Owers +23

We examine the kinematic morphology of early-type galaxies (ETGs) in eight galaxy clusters in the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field spectrograph (SAMI) Galaxy Survey. The clus…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: a new method to estimate molecular gas surface densities from star formation rates

Christoph Federrath, Diane M. Salim, Anne M. Medling +16

Stars form in cold molecular clouds. However, molecular gas is difficult to observe because the most abundant molecule (H2) lacks a permanent dipole moment. Rotational transitions…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: The cluster redshift survey, target selection and cluster properties

M. S. Owers, J. T. Allen, I. Baldry +40

We describe the selection of galaxies targeted in eight low redshift clusters (APMCC0917, A168, A4038, EDCC442, A3880, A2399, A119 and A85; ) as part of the Sydn…

Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): Probing the merger histories of massive galaxies via stellar populations

I. Ferreras, A. M. Hopkins, M. L. P. Gunawardhana +13

The merging history of galaxies can be traced with studies of dynamically close pairs. These consist of a massive primary galaxy and a less massive secondary (or satellite) galaxy.…
