Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Defining passive galaxy samples and searching for the UV upturn
(Oxford University Press, 2019)We use data from the GAMA and GALEX surveys to demonstrate that the UV upturn, an unexpected excess of ultraviolet flux from a hot stellar component, seen in the spectra of many early-type galaxies, arises from processes ... -
Multivariate comparisons of the period–light-curve shape distributions of Cepheids in five galaxies
(Oxford University Press, 2007)A number of published tests suitable for the comparison of multivariate distributions are described. The results of a small power study, based on realistic Cepheid log period – Fourier coefficient data, are presented. ... -
On the upper limit on stellar masses in the Large Magellanic Cloud cluster R136
(Oxford University Press, 2006)A truncated power-law distribution is fitted to the 29 largest stellar masses known in R136. Two different statistical techniques are used, with comparable results. An upper limit to the mass distribution of the order ... -
Photometric properties of reionization-epoch galaxies in the SIMBA simulations
(Oxford University Press, 2020)We study the photometric properties and sizes of the reionization-epoch galaxies in high-resolution SIMBA cosmological hydrodynamical simulations with box sizes of [25,50]h−1Mpc. Assuming various attenuation laws, we ... -
Simba-c: the evolution of the thermal and chemical properties in the intragroup medium
(Oxford University Press, 2024)The newly updated GIZMO and Simba based simulation, Simba-C, with its new stellar feedback, chemical enrichment, and recalibrated AGN feedback, allows for a detailed study of the intragroup medium X-ray properties. We ...
