Alignment between filaments and galaxy spins from the MaNGA integral-field survey

Alex Krolewski, Shirley Ho, Yen-Chi Chen +4

Halos and galaxies acquire their angular momentum during the collapse of surrounding large-scale structure. This process imprints alignments between galaxy spins and nearby filamen…

An Analysis Framework for Understanding the Origin of Nuclear Activity in Low-Power Radio Galaxies

Yen-Ting Lin, Hung-Jin Huang, Yen-Chi Chen

Using large samples containing nearly active galaxies of low radio luminosity (1.4 GHz luminosity between and W/Hz, essentially low-excit…

Intrinsic Alignment in redMaPPer clusters -- II. Radial alignment of satellites toward cluster centers

Hung-Jin Huang, Rachel Mandelbaum, Peter E. Freeman +3

We study the orientations of satellite galaxies in redMaPPer clusters constructed from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey at to determine whether there is any preferential t…

Intrinsic alignments in redMaPPer clusters -- I. Central galaxy alignments and angular segregation of satellites

Hung-Jin Huang, Rachel Mandelbaum, Peter E. Freeman +4

The shapes of cluster central galaxies are not randomly oriented, but rather exhibit coherent alignments with the shapes of their parent clusters as well as with the surrounding la…

Detecting Effects of Filaments on Galaxy Properties in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III

Yen-Chi Chen, Shirley Ho, Rachel Mandelbaum +6

We study the effects of filaments on galaxy properties in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 12 using filaments from the `Cosmic Web Reconstruction' catalogue (Chen e…
