A correlation between hard gamma-ray sources and cosmic voids along the line of sight

TL;DR: In this paper, the galaxy density along lines of sight to hard extragalactic gamma-ray sources was estimated by correlating source positions on the sky with a void catalog based on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Beyond Spheroids and Discs: Classifications of CANDELS Galaxy Structure at 1.4

TL;DR: In this article, a principal component analysis of nonparametric morphological indicators (concentration, asymmetry, Gini coecient, M20, multi-mode, intensity and deviation) measured at rest-frame B-band (corresponding to HST/WFC3 F125W at 1.4 10 10 M ) galaxy morphologies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of the Stellar Mass Tully-Fisher Relation in Disk Galaxy Merger Simulations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a large suite of hydrodynamic N-body galaxy merger simulations to explore a possible mechanism for creating the observed relations and explore the relationship between galaxy mergers and intrinsic properties of the galaxies.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Diffuse Extragalactic Background Radiation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from their latest semi-analytic models (SAMs), based upon a ΛCDM hierachical structural formation scenario and employing all ingredients thought to be important to galaxy formation and evolution, as well as reprocessing of starlight by dust to mid-and far-IR wavelengths.
