We examine the cooling radiation from forming galaxies in hydrodynamic simulations of the LCDM model (cold dark matter with a cosmological constant), focusing on the Lyα line luminosities of high-reds...
CO luminosity functions for far-infrared- and B-band-selected galaxies and the first estimate for Omega(H I+H2)
surveys molecules
2014/12/24
We derive a nonparametric CO luminosity function using an FIR- and an optical B-band-selected sample of the galaxies included in the FCRAO Extragalactic CO Survey. The FIR-selected sample is defined u...
The optical and near-infrared properties of galaxies. I. Luminosity and stellar mass functions
luminosity function mass function
2014/12/24
We use a large sample of galaxies from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to calculate galaxy luminosity and stellar mass functions in the local universe. We...
Interpreting the relationship between galaxy luminosity, color, and environment
galaxy luminosity color environment
2014/12/24
We study the relationship between galaxy luminosity, color, and environment in a cosmological simulation of galaxy formation. Using a simple prescription to assign colors and luminosities to simulated...
A complete view of galaxy evolution: panchromatic luminosity functions and the generation of metals
typical galaxies galaxies
2014/12/22
When and how did galaxies form and their metals accumulate? Over the last decade, this has moved from an archeological question to a live investigation: there is now a broad picture of the evolution o...
The LTHE LUMINOSITY, MASS, AND AGE DISTRIBUTIONS OF COMPACT STAR CLUSTERS IN M83 BASED ON HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE/WIDE FIELD CAMERA 3 OBSERVATIONS
filters binning
2014/12/20
The newly installed Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope has been used to obtain multi-band images of the nearby spiral galaxy M83. These new observations are the deepest and highe...
TOTAL INFRARED LUMINOSITY ESTIMATION OF RESOLVED AND UNRESOLVED GALAXIES
star formation dust physics
2014/12/20
The total infrared (TIR) luminosity from galaxies can be used to examine both star formation and dust physics. We provide here new relations to estimate the TIR luminosity from various Spitzer bands, ...
IDENTIFICATION OF A COMPLETE 160 μm FLUX-LIMITED SAMPLE OF INFRARED GALAXIES IN THE ISO LOCKMAN HOLE 1 deg2 DEEP FIELDS: SOURCE PROPERTIES AND EVIDENCE FOR STRONG EVOLUTION IN THE FIR LUMINOSITY FUNCTION FOR ULIRGs
starburst-active galactic nucleus (AGN) composite AGN spectral types
2014/12/20
We have identified a complete, flux-limited (S 160>120 mJy) sample of 160 μm selected sources from Spitzer observations of the 1 deg2 Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) Deep Field region in the Lockman ...
An optical study of the faint end of the stellar luminosity function
Stars Photometric functions Multicolor metering Height of fuzzy Projection Molecular cloud
2014/12/9
We implement a new method by which to study the faint end of the field star luminosity function. The method relies on deep, multicolor photometry of fields projected against highly obscured, nearby mo...
Investigating the break in the Cepheid period-luminosity relation and its implications
Cepheid variable stars Cycle luminosity Linear time. universal
2014/12/9
The Cepheid period-luminosity (PL) relation is a major component in the distance scale ladder. This relation has been considered to be linear (within period ranges of ～2 to ～100 days) and universal (i...
A Bayesian Approach to Calibrating Period-Luminosity Relations of RR Lyrae Stars in the Mid-Infrared
statistical methods RR Lyrae distance scale
2012/2/23
A Bayesian approach to calibrating period-luminosity (PL) relations has substantial benefits over generic least-squares fits. In particular, the Bayesian approach takes into account the full prior dis...
A Mid-Infrared Indicator for Total Infrared Luminosity and Star Formation Rate of Local and High-Redshift Galaxies

2011/10/9
We present a new method to use 24 micron observations to estimate the total infrared luminosity, LIR, and the star formation rate of star-forming galaxies across the redshift range 0 < z < 3. This is ...
Comparing the Accretion Disk Evolution of Black Hole and Neutron Star X-ray Binaries from Low to Super-Eddington Luminosity

2011/10/21
Low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) are systems in which a low-mass companion transfers mass via Roche-lobe overflow onto a black hole (BH) or a weakly magnetized neutron star (NS). It is believed that bo...
