Preparing for low surface brightness science with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory: characterisation of tidal features from mock images
G. Martin, A. E. Bazkiaei, M. Spavone +50
Tidal features in the outskirts of galaxies yield unique information about their past interactions and are a key prediction of the hierarchical structure formation paradigm. The Ve…
Radio AGN in nearby dwarf galaxies: the important role of AGN in dwarf-galaxy evolution
F. Davis, S. Kaviraj, M. J. Hardcastle +8
We combine deep optical and radio data, from the Hyper Suprime-Cam and the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) respectively, to study 78 radio AGN in nearby (z<0.5) dwarf galaxies. Compari…
Extremely massive disc galaxies in the nearby Universe form through gas-rich minor mergers
R. A. Jackson, S. Kaviraj, G. Martin +5
In our hierarchical structure-formation paradigm, the observed morphological evolution of massive galaxies -- from rotationally-supported discs to dispersion-dominated spheroids --…
How the spectral energy distribution and galaxy morphology constrain each other, with application to morphological selection using galaxy colours
Emir Uzeirbegovic, Garreth Martin, Sugata Kaviraj
We introduce an empirical methodology to study how the spectral energy distribution (SED) and galaxy morphology constrain each other and implement this on 8000 galaxies from the HS…
Introducing the LBT Imaging of Galactic Halos and Tidal Structures (LIGHTS) survey. A preview of the low surface brightness Universe to be unveiled by LSST
Ignacio Trujillo, Mauro D'Onofrio, Dennis Zaritsky +10
We present the first results of the LBT Imaging of Galaxy Haloes and Tidal Structures (LIGHTS) survey. LIGHTS is an ongoing observational campaign with the 2x8.4m Large Binocular T…
The Star Formation Rates of Elliptical Galaxies from Core-Collapse Supernovae
Thomas M. Sedgwick, Ivan K. Baldry, Philip A. James +2
The level of star formation in elliptical galaxies is poorly constrained, due to difficulties in quantifying the contamination of flux-based estimates of star formation from unrela…
