1. Introduction
THE ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNAL SUPPLEMENT SERIES, 122:109È150, 1999 May ( 1999. The American Astronomical Society. All rights reserved. Printed in U.S.A. GALAXY STRUCTURAL PARAMETERS: STAR FORMATION RATE AND EVOLUTION WITH REDSHIFT M. TAKAMIYA1,2 Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637; and Gemini 8 m Telescopes Project, 670 North Aohoku Place, Hilo, HI 96720 Received 1998 August 4; accepted 1998 December 21 ABSTRACT The evolution of the structure of galaxies as a function of redshift is investigated using two param- eters: the metric radius of the galaxy(Rg) and the power at high spatial frequencies in the disk of the galaxy (s). A direct comparison is made between nearby (z D 0) and distant(0.2 [ z [ 1) galaxies by following a Ðxed range in rest frame wavelengths. The data of the nearby galaxies comprise 136 broad- band images at D4500A observed with the 0.9 m telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory (23 galaxies) and selected from the catalog of digital images of Frei et al. (113 galaxies). The high-redshift sample comprises 94 galaxies selected from the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) observations with the Hubble Space Telescope using the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 in four broad bands that range between D3000 and D9000A (Williams et al.). The radius is measured from the intensity proÐle of the galaxy using the formulation of Petrosian, and it is argued to be a metric radius that should not depend very strongly on the angular resolution and limiting surface brightness level of the imaging data. It is found that the metric radii of nearby and distant galaxies are comparable to each other. -
Spiral Galaxy HI Models, Rotation Curves and Kinematic Classifications
Spiral galaxy HI models, rotation curves and kinematic classifications Theresa B. V. Wiegert A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Physics & Astronomy University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Canada 2010 Copyright (c) 2010 by Theresa B. V. Wiegert Abstract Although galaxy interactions cause dramatic changes, galaxies also continue to form stars and evolve when they are isolated. The dark matter (DM) halo may influence this evolu- tion since it generates the rotational behaviour of galactic disks which could affect local conditions in the gas. Therefore we study neutral hydrogen kinematics of non-interacting, nearby spiral galaxies, characterising their rotation curves (RC) which probe the DM halo; delineating kinematic classes of galaxies; and investigating relations between these classes and galaxy properties such as disk size and star formation rate (SFR). To generate the RCs, we use GalAPAGOS (by J. Fiege). My role was to test and help drive the development of this software, which employs a powerful genetic algorithm, con- straining 23 parameters while using the full 3D data cube as input. The RC is here simply described by a tanh-based function which adequately traces the global RC behaviour. Ex- tensive testing on artificial galaxies show that the kinematic properties of galaxies with inclination > 40 ◦, including edge-on galaxies, are found reliably. Using a hierarchical clustering algorithm on parametrised RCs from 79 galaxies culled from literature generates a preliminary scheme consisting of five classes. These are based on three parameters: maximum rotational velocity, turnover radius and outer slope of the RC. -

Cold Gas Accretion in Galaxies
Astron Astrophys Rev (2008) 15:189–223 DOI 10.1007/s00159-008-0010-0 REVIEW ARTICLE Cold gas accretion in galaxies Renzo Sancisi · Filippo Fraternali · Tom Oosterloo · Thijs van der Hulst Received: 28 January 2008 / Published online: 17 April 2008 © The Author(s) 2008 Abstract Evidence for the accretion of cold gas in galaxies has been rapidly accumulating in the past years. H I observations of galaxies and their environment have brought to light new facts and phenomena which are evidence of ongoing or recent accretion: (1) A large number of galaxies are accompanied by gas-rich dwarfs or are surrounded by H I cloud complexes, tails and filaments. This suggests ongoing minor mergers and recent arrival of external gas. It may be regarded, therefore, as direct evidence of cold gas accretion in the local universe. It is probably the same kind of phenomenon of material infall as the stellar streams observed in the halos of our galaxy and M 31. (2) Considerable amounts of extra-planar H I have been found in nearby spiral galaxies. While a large fraction of this gas is undoubtedly produced by galactic fountains, it is likely that a part of it is of extragalactic origin. Also the Milky Way has extra-planar gas complexes: the Intermediate- and High-Velocity Clouds (IVCs and HVCs). (3) Spirals are known to have extended and warped outer layers of H I. It is not clear how these have formed, and how and for how long the warps can R. Sancisi (B) Osservatorio Astronomico di Bologna, Via Ranzani 1, 40127 Bologna, Italy e-mail: [email protected] R. -

Data for 21 nearby galaxies presented by clusters that do not have any counterparts in our own galaxy Larsen & Richtler (1999) are used together with literature data (van den Bergh 1991; Richtler 1993).

We find that TL(U) also in a number of mergers and starburst galaxies (see e.g. list in correlates with several observable host galaxy parameters, in Harris 1999) and it is clear that the occurrence of such objects particular the ratio of Far-Infrared (FIR) to B-band flux and the is often associated with violent star formation, leading to the surface brightness. -

Received 2016 February 15; in original form 2015 July 3 http://mnras.oxfordjournals.org/ ABSTRACT We present the results of a high-resolution, 5 GHz, Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array study 3D of the nuclear radio emission in a representative subset of the ATLAS survey of early-type galaxies (ETGs). We find that 51 ± 4 per cent of the ETGs in our sample contain nuclear radio emission with luminosities as low as 1018 WHz−1. Most of the nuclear radio sources have compact (25–110 pc) morphologies, although ∼10 per cent display multicomponent core+jet or extended jet/lobe structures. Based on the radio continuum properties, as well as optical emission line diagnostics and the nuclear X-ray properties, we conclude that the at MPI Study of Societies on June 7, 2016 3D majority of the central 5 GHz sources detected in the ATLAS galaxies are associated with the presence of an active galactic nucleus (AGN).
