Morphology and star formation in IllustrisTNG: the build-up of spheroids and discs

TL;DR: In this paper, a kinematical decomposition of the stellar component into a spheroidal and a disc component (spheroid-to-total ratio, S/T) and the concentration of stellar mass density profile (C_{82}$) was proposed to quantify the relationship between galaxy morphology and star formation.

Timing the Early Assembly of the Milky Way with the H3 Survey

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used 11,000 main-sequence turn-off stars with well-measured ages, [Fe/H], [$\alpha$/Fe], and orbits from the H3 Survey and Gaia to time the major events in the early Galaxy.

The relationship between infrared, optical, and ultraviolet extinction

TL;DR: In this article, the average extinction law over the 3.5 micron to 0.125 wavelength range was derived for both diffuse and dense regions of the interstellar medium. And the validity of the law over a large wavelength interval suggests that the processes which modify the sizes and compositions of grains are stochastic in nature.

Stellar population synthesis at the resolution of 2003

TL;DR: In this article, the spectral evolution of stellar populations at ages between 100,000 yr and 20 Gyr at a resolution of 3 A across the whole wavelength range from 3200 to 9500 A for a wide range of metallicities.

Astropy: A community Python package for astronomy

TL;DR: Astropy as discussed by the authors is a Python package for astronomy-related functionality, including support for domain-specific file formats such as flexible image transport system (FITS) files, Virtual Observatory (VO) tables, common ASCII table formats, unit and physical quantity conversions, physical constants specific to astronomy, celestial coordinate and time transformations, world coordinate system (WCS) support, generalized containers for representing gridded as well as tabular data, and a framework for cosmological transformations and conversions.

The Luminosity function and stellar evolution

TL;DR: In this paper, the evolutionary significance of the observed luminosity function for main-sequence stars in the solar neighborhood is discussed and it is shown that stars move off the main sequence after burning about 10 per cent of their hydrogen mass and that stars have been created at a uniform rate in a solar neighborhood for the last five billion years.

Galactic stellar and substellar initial mass function

TL;DR: A review of the present-day mass function and initial mass function in various components of the Galaxy (disk, spheroid, young, and globular clusters) and in conditions characteristic of early star formation is presented in this paper.
