The importance of minor-merger-driven star formation and black-hole growth in disk galaxies
(2014-06-01)
We use the SDSS Stripe 82 to empirically quantify the stellar-mass and black-hole growth triggered by minor mergers in local spiral (disk) galaxies. Since major mergers destroy disks and create spheroids, morphologically ...
The spectral structure and energetics of powerful radio sources
(2014-04-29)
Determining the energy spectrum of an electron population can give key insights into the underlying physics of a radio source; however, the lack of high resolution, broad-bandwidth observations has left many ambiguities ...
