Resolved Stellar Populations Constituting Extended UV Disks (XUV-disks) in Nearby Galaxies
D. A. Thilker, L. Bianchi, G. Meurer +11
We describe HST imaging of recent star formation complexes located in the extended UV disk (XUV-disk) component of NGC 5236 (M 83), NGC 5055 (M 63), and NGC 2090. Photometry in fou…
Ultraviolet through Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions from 1000 SDSS Galaxies: Dust Attenuation
Benjamin D. Johnson, David Schiminovich, Mark Seibert +19
The meaningful comparison of models of galaxy evolution to observations is critically dependent on the accurate treatment of dust attenuation. To investigate dust absorption and em…
A Search for Extended Ultraviolet Disk (XUV-disk) Galaxies in the Local Universe
David A. Thilker, Luciana Bianchi, Gerhardt Meurer +26
We have initiated a search for extended ultraviolet disk (XUV-disk) galaxies in the local universe. Herein, we compare GALEX UV and visible--NIR images of 189 nearby (D40 Mpc) S…
Planets in the Galactic Bulge: Results from the SWEEPS Project
Kailash C. Sahu, Stefano Casertano, Jeff Valenti +13
The exoplanets discovered so far have been mostly around relatively nearby and bright stars. As a result, the host stars are mostly (i) in the Galactic disk, (ii) relatively massiv…
The Once and Future Andromeda Stream
Masao Mori, R. Michael Rich
The interaction between an accreting satellite and the Andromeda galaxy (M31) has been studied analytically and numerically, using a high-resolution N-body simulation with $4\times…
Clustering Properties of restframe UV selected galaxies I: the correlation length derived from GALEX data in the local Universe
Bruno Milliard, Sebastien Heinis, Jeremy Blaizot +25
We present the first measurements of the angular correlation function of galaxies selected in the far (1530 A) and near (2310 A) Ultraviolet from the GALEX survey fields overlappin…
