- Description:
- We have carried out a redshift survey of an IRAS flux-limited (f_60_>0.6) galaxy sample behind the southern Milky Way, 210{deg}<l<360{deg} at |b|<15{deg}. The survey includes redshifts for 951 galaxies, ~500 of which are new. Of these 951 galaxies, 462 are in the zone 5{deg}<b<15{deg} and 353 are in the zone -15{deg}<b<-5{deg}. Though the innermost region of the Milky Way (|b|=5{deg}) remains opaque except in the longitude near 240, the detected galaxies show a high degree of completeness (~70%) in the zones 5{deg}<b<15{deg} and -15{deg}<b<-5{deg}. The cone diagrams exhibiting the detailed distribution of IRAS galaxies in the region 210{deg}<l<360{deg}, |b|<15{deg} shows two clusters in the Puppis region (l=240{deg}, b=-7{deg}, v=2400km/s; l=245{deg}, b=-5{deg}, v=7500km/s), the A3627 cluster (l=325{deg}, b=-7{deg}; v=4500km/s), the S4 cluster (l=280{deg}, b=7{deg}; v=5500km/s), and a possible void at l=245{deg}, v=3000km/s. The region 270{deg}<l<350{deg} is dominated by overdensity of galaxies representing the extension of the Hydra-Centaurus complex in the positive latitudes and the Pavo-Indus complex in the negative latitudes. A velocity histogram of galaxies in the GA region 290{deg}<l<350{deg}, |b|<15{deg}. reveals a substantial overdensity of galaxies in the velocity range 2400-5000km/s. The centroid of this overdensity is located at 4000km/s. The broad increased density of galaxies seen in our data corresponds with the distant concentration seen at 4500km/s in the supergalactic plane survey that covers the same longitude range like ours in l, but a larger range in latitude b (-30{deg} to -10{deg} and +10{deg} to +45{deg}). This lends support to the idea that the overdensity extends all the way from the Centaurus-Hydra complex (l=302{deg}, b=+22{deg}) in the north to the major concentration of the Pavo-Indus supercluster (l=332{deg}, b=-24{deg}) in the south, through the Milky Way. We conclude that the peak of the overdensity responsible for the peculiar velocity field in the local region is possibly situated in the Milky Way itself.

- Description:
- We study the surface brightness profiles of disc galaxies in the 3.6{mu}m images from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G) and Ks-band images from the Near-Infrared S0-Sa galaxy Survey (NIRS0S). We particularly connect properties of single exponential (type I), downbending double exponential (type II), and upbending double exponential (type III) disc profile types, to structural components of galaxies by using detailed morphological classifications, and size measurements of rings and lenses. We also study how the local environment of the galaxies affects the profile types by calculating parameters describing the environmental density and the tidal interaction strength. We find that in majority of type II profiles the break radius is connected with structural components such as rings, lenses, and spirals. The exponential disc sections of all three profile types, when considered separately, follow the disc scaling relations. However, the outer discs of type II, and the inner discs of type III, are similar in scalelength to the single exponential discs. Although the different profile types have similar mean environmental parameters, the scalelengths of the type III profiles show a positive correlation with the tidal interaction strength.

- Description:
- She+ (Paper I, 2017, J/ApJ/835/223) assembled a catalog of nearby galaxies observed with the Chandra X-ray observatory, by cross-matching galaxies in the NASA Extragalactic Database within 50Mpc and the Chandra archive. That sample has enabled searches of low-mass black holes associated with late-type, bulgeless galaxies and studies of the accretion physics related to low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Using a similar approach, here we construct an extended catalog up to 150Mpc and make a cross-correlation with a catalog of nearby galaxy groups. The new catalog consists of 1964 galaxies, out of which 1692 have a redshift-independent distance, 1557 are listed in the galaxy group catalog with group properties available, and 782 are identified to be X-ray AGN candidates. Compared with the AGN sample in Paper I, the new sample is 2.5 times larger in size (782 versus 314), with ~80% of the new members having an Eddington ratio less than 10^-4^. We confirm that the conclusions based on the previous sample remain. With the new sample, we compare AGN fractions between early-type and late-type galaxies, and between central and satellite galaxies in groups, and find no significant difference. This suggests that the secular process is not the dominant mechanism feeding AGNs in the local universe.

- Description:
- We describe the results of a search for galaxies with large (350>=km/s) velocity dispersions. The largest systems we have found appear to be the extremes of the early-type galaxy population: compared to other galaxies with similar luminosities, they have the largest velocity dispersions and the smallest sizes.

- Title:
- Galaxies with rows
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The results of a search for galaxies with straight structural elements, usually spiral-arm rows ("rows" in the terminology of Vorontsov-Vel'yaminov), are reported. The list of galaxies that possess (or probably possess) such rows includes about 200 objects, of which about 70% are brighter than 14m. On the whole, galaxies with rows make up 6-8% of all spiral galaxies with well-developed spiral patterns. Most galaxies with rows are gas-rich Sbc-Scd spirals. The fraction of interacting galaxies among them is appreciably higher than among galaxies without rows. Earlier conclusions that, as a rule, the lengths of rows are similar to their galactocentric distances and that the angles between adjacent rows are concentrated near 120{deg} are confirmed. It is concluded that the rows must be transient hydrodynamic structures that develop in normal galaxies.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- This is the fourth in a series of papers based on the ISOCAM Parallel Survey at 6.7um. While the first three papers have been devoted to active galactic nuclei (AGN), here we report on emission-line galaxies without AGN signatures in their optical spectra. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission has been found in both starbursts and modestly starforming galaxies, but the relation between starforming activity and PAH luminosity is still a matter of debate. The different correlation degrees could be caused by the variety of optical and far-infrared sample selection criteria. In order to obtain a census of the typical properties of PAH emitting galaxies, we here study moderately distant galaxies which have been selected by their PAH emission.

- Description:
- We investigate the nature of objects in a complete sample of 28 galaxies selected from the first sky area fully covered by the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) survey, being well detected and having HI profiles wider than 550km/s. The selection does not use brightness, morphology or any other property derived from optical or other spectral bands. We investigate the degree of isolation, the morphology and other properties gathered or derived from open data bases and show that some objects have wide HI profiles probably because they are disturbed or are interacting, or might be confused in the ALFALFA beam.

- CDS
- Description:
- The Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey has been operating since 2008 February on the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope using the AAOmega fibre-fed spectrograph facility to acquire spectra with a resolution of R~1300 for 120862 Sloan Digital Sky Survey selected galaxies. The target catalogue constitutes three contiguous equatorial regions centred at 9h (G09), 12h (G12) and 14.5h (G15) each of 12x4deg^2^ to limiting fluxes of r_pet_<19.4, r_pet_<19.8 and r_pet_<19.4 mag, respectively (and additional limits at other wavelengths). Spectra and reliable redshifts have been acquired for over 98 per cent of the galaxies within these limits. Here we present the survey footprint, progression, data reduction, redshifting, re-redshifting, an assessment of data quality after 3yr, additional image analysis products (including ugrizYJHK photometry, Sersic profiles and photometric redshifts), observing mask and construction of our core survey catalogue (GamaCore). From this we create three science-ready catalogues: GamaCoreDR1 for public release, which includes data acquired during year 1 of operations within specified magnitude limits (2008 February to April); GamaCoreMainSurvey containing all data above our survey limits for use by the GAMA Team and collaborators; and GamaCoreAtlasSV containing year 1, 2 and 3 data matched to Herschel-ATLAS science demonstration data. These catalogues along with the associated spectra, stamps and profiles can be accessed via the GAMA website: http://www.gama-survey.org/

- Description:
- The Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey is one of the largest contemporary spectroscopic surveys of low redshift galaxies. Covering an area of ~286deg^2^ (split among five survey regions) down to a limiting magnitude of r<19.8mag, we have collected spectra and reliable redshifts for 238000 objects using the AAOmega spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. In addition, we have assembled imaging data from a number of independent surveys in order to generate photometry spanning the wavelength range 1nm-1m. Here, we report on the recently completed spectroscopic survey and present a series of diagnostics to assess its final state and the quality of the redshift data. We also describe a number of survey aspects and procedures, or updates thereof, including changes to the input catalogue, redshifting and re-redshifting, and the derivation of ultraviolet, optical and near-infrared photometry. Finally, we present the second public release of GAMA data. In this release, we provide input catalogue and targeting information, spectra, redshifts, ultraviolet, optical and near-infrared photometry, single-component Sersic fits, stellar masses, H{alpha}-derived star formation rates, environment information, and group properties for all galaxies with r<19.0mag in two of our survey regions, and for all galaxies with r<19.4mag in a third region (72225 objects in total). The data base serving these data is available at http://www.gama-survey.org/.
