Morphology-spin connection in the SAMI Galaxy Survey
Youngmin Baek, Sree Oh, Sukyoung K. Yi +5

Caroline Foster, Mark W. Donoghoe, Andrew Battisti +26
This work presents visual morphological and dynamical classifications for 637 spatially resolved galaxies, most of which are at intermediate redshift (), in the Middle-Ag…
The MAGPI Survey: the subtle role of environment and not-so-subtle impact of generations of stars on galaxy dynamics
Caroline Foster, Sabine Bellstedt, Francesco DEugenio +23
The stellar age and mass of galaxies have been suggested as the primary determinants for the dynamical state of galaxies, with environment seemingly playing no or only a very minor…
The MAGPI Survey: the evolution and drivers of gas turbulence in intermediate-redshift galaxies
Yifan Mai, Scott M. Croom, Emily Wisnioski +21
We measure the ionised gas velocity dispersions of star-forming galaxies in the MAGPI survey () and compare them with galaxies in the SAMI () and KROSS ($z\sim…

We present a study of kinematic asymmetries from the integral field spectroscopic surveys MAGPI and SAMI. By comparing the asymmetries in the ionsied gas and stars, we aim to disen…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: galaxy spin is more strongly correlated with stellar population age than mass or environment
S. M. Croom, J. van de Sande, S. P. Vaughan +17
We use the SAMI Galaxy Survey to examine the drivers of galaxy spin, , in a multi-dimensional parameter space including stellar mass, stellar population age (or specific s…
The SAMI galaxy survey: predicting kinematic morphology with logistic regression
Sam P. Vaughan, Jesse van de Sande, A. Fraser-McKelvie +10
We use the SAMI galaxy survey to study the the kinematic morphology-density relation: the observation that the fraction of slow rotator galaxies increases towards dense environment…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Using Tidal Streams and Shells to Trace the Dynamical Evolution of Massive Galaxies
Tomas H. Rutherford, Jesse van de Sande, Scott M. Croom +14
Slow rotator galaxies are distinct amongst galaxy populations, with simulations suggesting that a mix of minor and major mergers are responsible for their formation. A promising pa…
Validating full-spectrum fitting with a synthetic integral-field spectroscopic observation of the Milky Way
Zixian Wang, Michael R. Hayden, Sanjib Sharma +5
Ongoing deep IFS observations of disk galaxies provide opportunities for comparison with the Milky Way (MW) to understand galaxy evolution. However, such comparisons are marred by…
