Investigating the Origins of Spiral Structure in Disk Galaxies through a Multiwavelength Study
Ryan Miller, Daniel Kennefick, Julia Kennefick +5
The density-wave theory of spiral structure proposes that star formation occurs in or near a spiral-shaped region of higher density that rotates rigidly within the galactic disk at…
X-ray Binary Luminosity Function Scaling Relations for Local Galaxies Based on Subgalactic Modeling
Bret D. Lehmer, Rafael T. Eufrasio, Panayiotis Tzanavaris +7
We present new Chandra constraints on the X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) of X-ray binary (XRB) populations, and their scaling relations, for a sample of 38 nearby galaxies (D =…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite
Richard F. Mushotzky, James Aird, Amy J. Barger +41
Much of the baryonic matter in the Universe, including the most active and luminous sources, are best studied in the X-ray band. Key advances in X-ray optics and detectors have pav…
Testing the Universality of the Stellar IMF with Chandra and HST
D. A. Coulter, B. D. Lehmer, R. T. Eufrasio +8
The stellar initial mass function (IMF), which is often assumed to be universal across unresolved stellar populations, has recently been suggested to be "bottom-heavy" for massive…
Star Formation Histories Across the Interacting Galaxy NGC 6872, the Largest-Known Spiral
Rafael T. Eufrasio, Eli Dwek, Richard G. Arendt +5
NGC 6872, hereafter the Condor, is a large spiral galaxy that is interacting with its closest companion, the S0 galaxy IC 4970. The extent of the Condor provides an opportunity for…
