The 6dF Galaxy Survey: Bulk Flows on Mpc scales

Morag I. Scrimgeour, Tamara M. Davis, Chris Blake +12

We measure the bulk flow of the local Universe using the 6dF Galaxy Survey peculiar velocity sample (6dFGSv), the largest and most homogeneous peculiar velocity sample to date. 6dF…

The IMF-sensitive 1.14-micron Na I doublet in early-type galaxies

Russell J. Smith, Padraig Alton, John R. Lucey +2

We present J-band spectroscopy of passive galaxies focusing on the Na I doublet at 1.14 μm. Like the Na I 0.82 μm doublet, this feature is strong in low-mass stars and hence may pr…

Beyond Sérsic + exponential disc morphologies in the Coma Cluster

Jacob T. C. G. Head, John R. Lucey, Michael J. Hudson

[abridged] We explore the diversity of internal galaxy structures in the Coma cluster across a wide range of luminosities (\,\,\,\,) and cluster-centric radii…

Modified Gravity and Large Scale Flows

Jeremy Mould, Matthew Colless, Pirin Erdogdu +5

Reconstruction of the local velocity field from the overdensity field and a gravitational acceleration that falls off from a point mass as r^-2 yields velocities in broad agreement…

The SINFONI Nearby Elliptical Lens Locator Survey: Discovery of two new low-redshift strong lenses and implications for the initial mass function in giant early-type galaxies

Russell J. Smith, John R. Lucey, Charlie Conroy

We present results from a blind survey to identify strong gravitational lenses among the population of low-redshift early-type galaxies. The SINFONI Nearby Elliptical Lens Locator…
