Cosmicflows-3: Cosmography of the Local Void

Shaya University of Maryland, Astronomy Department, College Park, MD 20743, USA ABSTRACT Cosmicflows-3 distances and inferred peculiar velocities of galaxies have permitted the reconstruction of the structure of over and under densities within the volume extending to 0:05c. This study focuses on the under dense regions, particularly the Local Void that lies largely in the zone of obscuration and consequently has received limited attention. Major over dense structures that bound the Local Void are the Perseus-Pisces and Norma-Pavo-Indus filaments sepa- rated by 8,500 km s−1. The void network of the universe is interconnected and void passages are found from the Local Void to the adjacent very large Hercules and Sculptor voids. Minor filaments course through voids. A particularly interesting example connects the Virgo and Perseus clusters, with several substantial galaxies found along the chain in the depths of the Local Void. The Local Void has a substantial dynamical effect, causing a deviant motion of the Local Group of 200 − 250 km s−1. -

Magnificent Spiral Galaxy Is Being Stretched by Passing Neighbor 27 May 2021, by Ray Villard
Magnificent spiral galaxy is being stretched by passing neighbor 27 May 2021, by Ray Villard animals—the gingham dog and calico cat—who got into a spat and ate each other. It's not so dramatic in this case. The galaxies are only getting a little chewed up because of their close proximity. The magnificent spiral galaxy NGC 2276 looks a bit lopsided in this Hubble Space Telescope snapshot. A bright hub of older yellowish stars normally lies directly in the center of most spiral galaxies. But the bulge in NGC 2276 looks offset to the upper left. What's going on? In reality, a neighboring galaxy to the right of NGC 2276 (NGC 2300, not seen here) is gravitationally tugging on its disk of blue stars, pulling the stars on one side of the galaxy outward to distort the galaxy's normal fried-egg appearance. This sort of "tug of war" between galaxies that pass close enough to feel each other's gravitational pull is not uncommon in the universe. But, like Credit: NASA, ESA, STScI, Paul Sell (University of snowflakes, no two close encounters look exactly Florida) alike. In addition, newborn and short-lived massive stars form a bright, blue arm along the upper left edge of The myriad spiral galaxies in our universe almost NGC 2276. They trace out a lane of intense star all look like fried eggs. A central bulge of aging formation. This may have been triggered by a prior stars is like the egg yolk, surrounded by a disk of collision with a dwarf galaxy. -

We have found a numerous class of galac- tic nuclei which stand out because of their conspicuous 0.1–1 Gyr populations. These nuclei were called ”Young-TOs” since they all have TO-like emission line ratios. To advance our knowledge of the nature of the central source in LLAGNs and its relation with stellar clusters, we are carrying out several imaging projects with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) at near-UV, optical and near-IR wave- lengths. In this paper, we present the first results obtained with observations of the central regions of 57 LLAGNs imaged with the WFPC2 through any of arXiv:0710.4450v1 [astro-ph] 24 Oct 2007 the V (F555W, F547M, F614W) and I (F791W, F814W) filters that are avail- able in the HST archive. -

This paper presents the results of a high resolution radio imaging survey of all known (96) low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs) at D ≤ 19 Mpc. We first report new 2 cm (150 mas resolution using the VLA) and 6 cm (2 mas resolution using the VLBA) radio observations of the previously unobserved nuclei in our samples and then present results on the complete survey. We find that almost half of all LINERs and low-luminosity Seyferts have flat-spectrum radio cores when observed at 150 mas resolution. Higher (2 mas) resolution observations of a flux-limited subsample have provided a 100% (16 of 16) detection rate of pc-scale radio cores, with implied brightness temperatures ∼>108 K. The five LLAGNs with the highest core radio fluxes also have pc-scale “jets”. -

Rotation Curves of High-Resolution LSB and SPARC Galaxies with Fuzzy and Multistate (Ultralight Boson) Scalar field Dark Matter

Received 2017 December 8; in original form 2017 January 4 ABSTRACT Cold dark matter (CDM) has shown to be an excellent candidate for the dark matter (DM) of the Universe at large scales; however, it presents some challenges at the galactic level. The scalar field dark matter (SFDM), also called fuzzy, wave, Bose–Einstein condensate, or ultralight axion DM, is identical to CDM at cosmological scales but different at the galactic ones. SFDM forms core haloes, it has a natural cut-off in its matter power spectrum, and it predicts well-formed galaxies at high redshifts. In this work we reproduce the rotation curves of high- resolution low surface brightness (LSB) and SPARC galaxies with two SFDM profiles: (1) the soliton+NFW profile in the fuzzy DM (FDM) model, arising empirically from cosmological simulations of real, non-interacting scalar field (SF) at zero temperature, and (2) the multistate SFDM (mSFDM) profile, an exact solution to the Einstein–Klein–Gordon equations for a real, self-interacting SF, with finite temperature into the SF potential, introducing several quantum states as a realistic model for an SFDM halo. -

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).
