A particular population of galaxies have drawn much interest recently, which are as faint typical dwarf but the sizes large $L^*$ galaxies, so called "ultra-diffuse galaxie" (UDGs). The lack tidal features UDGs in dense environments suggests that their host halos perhaps massive Milky Way. On other hand, galaxy formation efficiency should be higher such masses. Here we use model catalog generated by populating two simulations: Millennium-II cosmological simulation and Phoenix simulations 9...

Abstract The large Integral Field Spectroscopy surveys have allowed the classification of ionizing sources emission lines on sub-kiloparsec scales. In this work, we define two non-parametric parameters, quiescence ( F q ) and its concentration C ), to quantify strength spatial distribution quenched areas, respectively, traced by LI(N)ER regions with low EW(H α ). With these measurements, classify MaNGA galaxies into inside-out outside-in quenching types according their locations versus plane...

In our previous work, we found that only two scenarios are capable of reproducing the observed integrated mass-metallicity relations for gas and stellar components local star-forming galaxies simultaneously. One scenario invokes a time-dependent metal outflow loading factor with stronger outflows at early times. The other uses IMF slope steeper this extend study to investigate radial profile metallicity in using spatially resolved spectroscopic data from SDSS-IV MaNGA survey. We find most...

ABSTRACT Clues to the formation and evolution of nuclear star clusters (NSCs) lie in their stellar populations. However, these structures are often very faint compared host galaxy, spectroscopic analysis NSCs is hampered by contamination light from rest system. With introduction wide-field integral field unit (IFU) spectrographs, new techniques have been developed model different components within galaxies, making it possible cleanly extract spectra study properties with minimal galaxy.

Abstract We investigate size variation with rest-frame wavelength for star-forming galaxies based on the second James Webb Space Telescope Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey data release. Star-forming are typically smaller at longer wavelengths from UV to near-IR z &lt; 3.5, especially more massive galaxies, indicating inside-out assembly in situ star formation if ignoring dust attenuation.

Abstract By analyzing data from DESI Legacy Imaging Survey of the dwarf galaxies in Arecibo Fast Alfa Survey, we have identified five ultradiffuse (UDGs) featuring central pseudobulges. These UDGs display blue pseudobulges with Sérsic indices n &lt; 2.5 and effective radii spanning 300–700 pc, along bluer thin stellar disks exhibiting low surface brightness expansive that align UDG definition.

Abstract We investigate the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation in low surface brightness galaxies selected from Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA survey. find that $\rm HI$-bearing still follow of typical late-type galaxies, with a slope approximately 4 mass versus rotational velocity diagram on logarithmic scale, i.e., $M_{\rm {b}}\propto v_{\rm {rot}}^4$. Our findings suggest matter distributions may resemble general and hint not originate dark halos densities or stronger/weaker feedback processes, but...

Abstract Leveraging the semi-analytic method, we compute halo spins for a substantial sample of HI-bearing galaxies observed in Arecibo Legacy Fast Alfa Survey. Our statistical analysis reveals correlation between spin and environment, although trend is subtle. On average, exhibit decreasing tendency denser environments. This observation contrasts with previous results from $N$-body simulations Lambda cold dark matter framework. The discrepancy may be attributed to environmental gas...

Abstract We investigated the alignment between angular momenta of galaxy groups and spines their associated cosmic filaments. Our results demonstrate a significant tendency for these two orientations to be perpendicular, indicating that rotation group does not originate from spin Instead, it is driven by orbital momentum contributed member galaxies as they accrete along direction filament spines. Moreover, strength this perpendicular signal varies with richness groups, most pronounced...

Our analysis reveals a significant major axes ETGs orientations their host cosmic filaments, consistent prior research. In contrast, show no signal.

We investigate the on-average properties for 28 star-forming ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) located in low-density environments, by stacking their spectra from Sloan Digital Sky Survey. These relatively-isolated UDGs, with stellar masses of $\log_{10}(M_*/M_{\odot})\sim 8.57\pm0.29$, have total-stellar-metallicity [M/H]$\sim -0.82\pm0.14$, iron-metallicity [Fe/H]$\sim -1.00\pm0.16$, age $t_*\sim5.2\pm0.5$ Gyr, $\alpha$-enhancement [$\alpha$/Fe]$\sim 0.24\pm0.10$, and oxygen abundance...

Abstract We report evidence of a hidden black hole (BH) in low-mass galaxy, MaNGA 9885-9102, and provide new method to identify active BHs galaxies. This galaxy is originally selected from the survey with distinctive bipolar H α blobs at minor axis. The feature can be associated galactic nuclei (AGN) activity, while two are classified as ii regions on BPT diagram, making origins confusing. Swift UV continuum shows that do not have counterparts, suggesting source ionization out blobs....

We study the radial acceleration relation (RAR) for early-type galaxies (ETGs) in SDSS MaNGA MPL5 dataset. The complete ETG sample show a slightly offset RAR from reported by McGaugh et al. (2016) at low-acceleration end; we find that deviation is due to fact slow rotators systematically higher than McGaugh's RAR, while fast consistent RAR. There 1\sigma significant difference between relations of and rotators, suggesting correlates with galactic spins, may have different mass distribution...

Unlike the random radial orientation distribution of field elliptical galaxies, galaxies in a cluster are expected to point preferentially towards centre cluster, as result cluster's tidal force on its member galaxies. In this work, an analytic model is formulated simulate effect. The deformation time-scale galaxy usually much shorter than change force; dynamical process interaction within can thus be ignored. equilibrium shape then assumed surface equipotential that sum self-gravitational...
