The curious case of offset bars : markers for a baby galaxy disk or signposts of an interaction with dark matter sub halos?
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)
We have used the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S⁴G) as a representative sample of the local universe (total of 2352 galaxies in S⁴G) to make a catalog of offset disk barred galaxies. Using the combined ...
The effects of environment on radio-loud AGN activity in Stripe 82
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)
We investigate the link between environment and radiative accretion efficiency using a sample of 8946 radio-loud AGN detected at 1 − 2 GHz in the SDSS Stripe 82 region. We quantify their environments using the surface-density ...
