We present deep near-infrared Ks -band Anglo-Australian Telescope Infrared Imager and Spectrograph observations of a selected sample of nearby barred spiral...

We identify a spectroscopic sequence of galaxies, analogous to the Hubble sequence of morphological types, based on the Automatic Spectroscopic K-means-based...

The optical properties of a number of supercompact ultraviolet luminous galaxies (UVLGs), recently discovered in the local universe matching Galaxy Evolution...

Spiral arms, as those of our own Milky Way, are some of the most spectacular features in disc galaxies. It has been argued that star formation should proceed...

The most frequently proposed model for the origin of quasars holds that the high accretion rates seen in luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN) are primarily...

Equipartition of energy between relativistic particles and magnetic field is known to be consistent with observations in most of the large size (hundreds of kpc...

In this Letter, we revisit the relationship between the fraction of the intra-cluster light (ICL) as well as the virial mass and the fraction of early-type...

We present results from a survey of an unbiased sample of 38 early-type (S0-Sa), low-inclination, optically barred galaxies in the field, using images both from...

I present a catalog of 67 barred galaxies which contain distinct, elliptical stellar structures inside their bars. Fifty of these are double-barred galaxies: a...
