Overview of the SDSS-IV MaNGA Survey: Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory
Kevin Bundy, Matthew A. Bershady, David R. Law +65
We present an overview of a new integral field spectroscopic survey called MaNGA (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory), one of three core programs in the fourth-gen…
Galaxy Zoo: CANDELS Barred Disks and Bar Fractions
B. D. Simmons, Thomas Melvin, Chris Lintott +39
The formation of bars in disk galaxies is a tracer of the dynamical maturity of the population. Previous studies have found that the incidence of bars in disks decreases from the l…
Galaxy Zoo: Are Bars Responsible for the Feeding of Active Galactic Nuclei at 0.2 < z < 1.0?
Edmond Cheung, Jonathan R. Trump, E. Athanassoula +19
We present a new study investigating whether active galactic nuclei (AGN) beyond the local universe are preferentially fed via large-scale bars. Our investigation combines data fro…
HIghMass -- High HI Mass, HI-rich Galaxies at z~0: Sample Definition, Optical and Halpha Imaging, and Star Formation Properties
Shan Huang, Martha P. Haynes, Riccardo Giovanelli +10
We present first results of the study of a set of exceptional HI sources identified in the 40% ALFALFA extragalactic HI survey catalog alpha.40 as being both HI massive (M_HI > 10^…
HIghMass - High HI Mass, HI-rich Galaxies at z~0: High-Resolution VLA Imaging of UGC 9037 and UGC 12506
Gregory Hallenbeck, Shan Huang, Kristine Spekkens +8
We present resolved HI observations of two galaxies, UGC 9037 and UGC 12506, members of a rare subset of galaxies detected by the ALFALFA extragalactic HI survey characterized by h…
2MTF III. HI 21cm observations of 1194 spiral galaxies with the Green Bank Telescope
Karen L. Masters, Aidan Crook, Tao Hong +5
We present HI 21cm observations of 1194 galaxies out to a redshift of 10,000 km/s selected as inclined spirals (i>60deg) from the 2MASS Redshift Survey. These observations were car…
