Spiral Morphology and Radial Migration: Kinematically heating, cooling, and cold
Kathryne J. Daniel, M. E. Wisz, Karen L. Masters +3
Transient spiral arms are known to drive radial redistribution of stars and thus could play a central role in shaping disk galaxies, including modifying, over time, the age, chemic…
Deep Learning Segmentation of Spiral Arms and Bars for 600,000 Galaxies in DESI
Ashley Spindler, Mike Walmsley, Karen L. Masters +4
We present a catalogue of segmentation maps identifying the extent of spiral arms and bars of 639,636 galaxies in the DESI Legacy Survey. To produce these maps, we have trained a d…
Galaxy Zoo Bar Lengths: A Catalogue of Measurements from Hubble Space Telescope Images and the Evolution of Galactic Bar Structure at z < 1
Tenley Hutchinson-Smith, Brooke D. Simmons, Karen L. Masters +12
Understanding the role of galactic scale bars in disk galaxy evolution requires detailed measurements of bar properties across galaxies hosting bars at many redshifts. We present m…
The effects of bar strength and kinematics on galaxy evolution II: The global and local impacts of slow-strong bars
Petra Mengistu, Karen L. Masters, Tobias Geron +3
There is now clear evidence, from a variety of studies, that galactic bars contribute to and/or accelerate processes which quench galaxies. However, bars have a variety of strength…
