Gaia Data Release 1. Open cluster astrometry: performance, limitations, and future prospects
(EDP Sciences, 2017)CONTEXT: The first Gaia Data Release contains the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS). This is a subset of about 2 million stars for which, besides the position and photometry, the proper motion and parallax are ... -
Gaia21bty: An exor light curve exhibiting a fuor spectrum
(Oxford University Press, 2023)Gaia21bty, a pre-main-sequence star that previously had shown aperiodic dips in its light curve, underwent a considerable ∆G ≈ 2.9 mag brightening that occurred over a few months between 2020 October and 2021 February. The ... -
The Galactic halo pulsar population
(Oxford University Press, 2018)Most population studies of pulsars have hitherto focused on the disc of the Galaxy, the Galactic centre, globular clusters, and nearby galaxies. It is expected that pulsars, by virtue of their natal kicks, are also to ... -
Galations 2:15-21 and the Belhar Confession (1986) in dialogue
(SUN, 2013)This article brings Gal 2: 15-21 into dialogue with the Confession of Belhar (1986). It starts off with the issue of the formation of confessions in Early Christianity and asks whether there could be a confession basic ... -
Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): A WISE Study of the Activity of Emission-line Systems in G23
(2020)We present a detailed study of emission-line systems in the GAMA G23 region, making use of WISE photometry that includes carefully measured resolved sources. After applying several cuts to the initial catalogue of ∼41,000 ... -
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 ... -
Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): Demonstrating the power of WISE in the study of Galaxy Groups to z < 0.1
(IOP Publishing, 2020)Combining high-fidelity group characterisation from the Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey and source-tailored z < 0.1 photometry from the WISE survey, we present a comprehensive study of the properties of ungrouped ... -
Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): Mid-infrared properties as tracers of galaxy environment
(EDP Sciences, 2023)We investigate how different mid-infrared (mid-IR) properties of galaxies are correlated with the environment in which the galaxies are located. For this purpose, we first study the dependence of galaxy clustering on the ... -
Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Resolving the role of environment in galaxy evolution
(Oxford University Press, 2013)We present observations of 18 galaxies from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey made with the SPIRAL optical integral field unit (IFU) on the Anglo- Australian Telescope. The galaxies are selected to ... -
Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): spectroscopic analysis
(Oxford University Press, 2013)The Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey is a multiwavelength photometric and spectroscopic survey, using the AAOmega spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope to obtain spectra for up to _ 300 000 galaxies over ... -
Galaxy and mass assembly: evolution of the Hα luminosity function and star formation rate density up to z < 0.35
(OUP, 2013)Measurements of the low-z Hα luminosity function, Φ, have a large dispersion in the local number density of sources (∼0.5–1 Mpc−3 dex−1), and correspondingly in the star formation rate density (SFRD). The possible causes ... -
Galaxy cold gas contents in modern cosmological hydrodynamic simulations
(Oxford University Press, 2020-07-03)We present a comparison of galaxy atomic and molecular gas properties in three recent cosmological hydrodynamic simulations, namely SIMBA, EAGLE, and IllustrisTNG, versus observations from z ∼ 0 to 2. These simulations ... -
Galaxy correlations and the BAO in a void universe: structure formation as a test of the Copernican Principle
(IOP Science, 2013)A suggested solution to the dark energy problem is the void model, where accelerated expansion is replaced by Hubble-scale inhomogeneity. In these models, density perturbations grow on a radially inhomogeneous background. ... -
Galaxy training: A powerful framework for teaching!
(NLM (Medline), 2023)There is an ongoing explosion of scientific datasets being generated, brought on by recent technological advances in many areas of the natural sciences. As a result, the life sciences have become increasingly computational ... -
Galaxy–galaxy lensing in the voice deep survey
(EDP Sciences, 2022)The multi-band photometry of the VOICE imaging data, overlapping with 4.9 deg2 of the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS) area, enables both shape measurement and photometric redshift estimation to be the two essential ... -
Galvanizing collective action to accelerate reductions in maternal and newborn mortality and prevention of stillbirths
(Johns Hopkins University, 2021)Every day, there are an estimated 810 maternal and 7,000 newborn deaths, and more than 5,000 stillbirths, most of which are preventable.1-3 While progress has been made in reducing maternal and neonatal morbidity and ... -
Gama/H-Atlas: The dust opacity-stellar mass surface density relation for spiral galaxies
(IOP Science, 2013)We report the discovery of a well-defined correlation between B-band face-on central optical depth due to dust and the stellar mass surface density of nearby spiral galaxies. This relation was derived from a sample of ... -
Gas-dynamical mass measurements of the supermassive black holes in the early-type galaxies NGC 4786 and NGC 5193 from ALMA and HST observations
(Institute of Physics, 2024)We present molecular gas-dynamical mass measurements of the central black holes in the giant elliptical galaxies NGC 4786 and NGC 5193, based on CO (2−1) observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array ... -
The gas-phase mass-metallicity relation for massive galaxies at z ∼ 0.7 with the LEGA-C survey
(American Astronomical Society, 2024)The massive end of the gas-phase mass–metallicity relation (MZR) is a sensitive probe of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback that is a crucial but highly uncertain component of galaxy evolution models. In this paper, we ... -
Gaussian process regression for foreground removal in hi intensity mapping experiments
(Oxford University Press, 2022)We apply for the first time Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) as a foreground removal technique in the context of single-dish, low redshift H I intensity mapping, and present an open-source PYTHON toolkit for doing so. We ...
