FGC 1287 and its enigmatic 250 kpc long HI tail in the outskirts of Abell 1367
(2022-01-17)
We present HI and radio continuum, narrow-band H$\alpha$ imaging, IFU spectroscopy, and X-ray observations of the FGC 1287 triplet projected $\sim$ 1.8 Mpc west of the galaxy cluster Abell 1367. One triplet member, FGC ...
Extremely massive disc galaxies in the nearby Universe form through gas-rich minor mergers
(2022-01-14)
In our hierarchical structure-formation paradigm, the observed morphological evolution of massive galaxies -- from rotationally-supported discs to dispersion-dominated spheroids -- is largely explained via galaxy merging. ...
The impact of metallicity on nova populations
(2022-01-01)
The metallicity of a star affects its evolution in a variety of ways, changing stellar radii, luminosities, lifetimes, and remnant properties. In this work, we use the population synthesis code binary_c to study how ...
The COMBS Survey -- III. The Chemodynamical Origins of Metal-Poor Bulge Stars
(2022-01-01)
The characteristics of the stellar populations in the Galactic Bulge inform and constrain the Milky Way's formation and evolution. The metal-poor population is particularly important in light of cosmological simulations, ...
A Multi-Mission Catalogue of Ultraluminous X-ray Source Candidates
(2022-01-01)
We present a new, multi-mission catalogue of ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) candidates, based on recent data releases from each of the XMM-Newton, Swift and Chandra observatories (the 4XMM-DR10, 2SXPS and CSC2 catalogues, ...
