Quantifying the Poor Purity and Completeness of Morphological Samples Selected by Galaxy Colour
Rebecca J. Smethurst, Karen L. Masters, Brooke D. Simmons +7
The galaxy population is strongly bimodal in both colour and morphology, and the two measures correlate strongly, with most blue galaxies being late-types (spirals) and most early-…
ESASky SSOSS: Solar System Object Search Service and the case of Psyche
E. Racero, F. Giordano, B. Carry +18
We introduce in this work the Solar System Object Search Service (SSOSS), a service aimed at providing the scientific community with a search service for all potential detections o…
Practical Galaxy Morphology Tools from Deep Supervised Representation Learning
Mike Walmsley, Anna M. M. Scaife, Chris Lintott +9
Astronomers have typically set out to solve supervised machine learning problems by creating their own representations from scratch. We show that deep learning models trained to an…
Galaxy Zoo: 3D -- Crowd-sourced Bar, Spiral and Foreground Star Masks for MaNGA Target Galaxies
Karen L. Masters, Coleman Krawczyk, Shoaib Shamsi +15
The challenge of consistent identification of internal structure in galaxies - in particular disc galaxy components like spiral arms, bars, and bulges - has hindered our ability to…
Galaxy Zoo: Stronger bars facilitate quenching in star forming galaxies
Tobias Géron, R. J. Smethurst, Chris Lintott +4
We have used Galaxy Zoo DECaLS (GZD) to study strong and weak bars in disk galaxies. Out of the 314,000 galaxies in GZD, we created a volume-limited sample (0.01 < z < 0.05, Mr < -…
Galaxy Zoo Builder: Morphological Dependence of Spiral Galaxy Pitch Angle
Timothy Lingard, Karen L. Masters, Coleman Krawczyk +6
Spiral structure is ubiquitous in the Universe, and the pitch angle of arms in spiral galaxies provide an important observable in efforts to discriminate between different mechanis…
