Galaxy Zoo: The Environmental Dependence of Bars and Bulges in Disc Galaxies
Ramin A. Skibba, Karen L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol +8
We present an analysis of the environmental dependence of bars and bulges in disc galaxies, using a volume-limited catalogue of 15810 galaxies at z<0.06 from the Sloan Digital Sky…
The fraction of early-type galaxies in low redshift groups and clusters of galaxies
Ben Hoyle, Karen. L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol +2
We examine the fraction of early-type (and spiral) galaxies found in groups and clusters of galaxies as a function of dark matter halo mass. We use morphological classifications fr…
The 2MASS Redshift Survey - Description and Data Release
John P. Huchra, Lucas M. Macri, Karen L. Masters +17
We present the results of the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS), a ten-year project to map the full three-dimensional distribution of galaxies in the nearby Universe. The 2 Micron All-S…
Galaxy Zoo: dust and molecular gas in early-type galaxies with prominent dust lanes
Sugata Kaviraj, Yuan-Sen Ting, Martin Bureau +9
We study dust and associated molecular gas in 352 nearby early-type galaxies (ETGs) with prominent dust lanes. 65% of these `dusty ETGs' (D-ETGs) are morphologically disturbed, sug…
The Morphology of Galaxies in the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey
Karen L. Masters, Claudia Maraston, Robert C. Nichol +17
We study the morphology of luminous and massive galaxies at 0.3<z<0.7 targeted in the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) using publicly available Hubble Space Telescope…
Galaxy Zoo: Bar Lengths in Nearby Disk Galaxies
Ben Hoyle, Karen. L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol +7
We present an analysis of bar length measurements of 3150 local galaxies in a volume limited sample of low redshift (z < 0.06) disk galaxies. Barred galaxies were initially selecte…
HI Content and Optical Properties of Field Galaxies from the ALFALFA Survey. I.Selection of a Control Sample
M. C. Toribio, J. M. Solanes, R. Giovanelli +2
We report results from a study of the HI content and stellar properties of nearby galaxies detected by the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA blind 21-cm line survey and the Sloan Digital Sk…
