SSGSS: The Spitzer-SDSS-GALEX Spectroscopic Survey

Matthew J. O'Dowd, David Schiminovich, Benjamin D. Johnson +8

The Spitzer-SDSS-GALEX Spectroscopic Survey (SSGSS) provides a new sample of 101 star-forming galaxies at z < 0.2 with unprecedented multi-wavelength coverage. New mid- to far-infr…

The GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey V: The Relation between the HI Content of Galaxies and Metal Enrichment at their Outskirts

Sean M. Moran, Timothy M. Heckman, Guinevere Kauffmann +14

We have obtained long-slit spectra of 174 star-forming galaxies with stellar masses greater than 10^10 M_\odot from the GALEX Arecibo SDSS (GASS) survey. These galaxies have both H…

The GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey. IV. Baryonic Mass-Velocity-Size Relations of Massive Galaxies

Barbara Catinella, Guinevere Kauffmann, David Schiminovich +12

We present dynamical scaling relations for a homogeneous and representative sample of ~500 massive galaxies, selected only by stellar mass (>10^10 Msun) and redshift (0.025<z<0.05)…

Evolution of the Most Massive Galaxies to z=0.6: I. A New Method for Physical Parameter Estimation

Yan-Mei Chen, Guinevere Kauffmann, Christy A. Tremonti +10

We use principal component analysis (PCA) to estimate stellar masses, mean stellar ages, star formation histories (SFHs), dust extinctions and stellar velocity dispersions for ~290…

Empirical determination of the shape of dust attenuation curves in star-forming galaxies

Vivienne Wild, Stephane Charlot, Jarle Brinchmann +4

We present a systematic study of the shape of the dust attenuation curve in star-forming galaxies from the far ultraviolet to the near infrared (0.15-2microns), as a function of sp…

The Space Density of Extended Ultraviolet (XUV) Disks in the Local Universe and Implications for Gas Accretion on to Galaxies

Jenna J. Lemonias, David Schiminovich, David Thilker +8

We present results of the first unbiased search for extended UV (XUV)-disk galaxies undertaken to determine the space density of such galaxies. Our sample contains 561 local (0.001…
