Recently, Buta et al. examined the question "Do Bars Drive Spiral Density Waves?", an idea supported by theoretical studies and also from a preliminary...
Bars, Ovals, and Lenses in Early-Type Disk Galaxies: Probes of Galaxy Evolution
The origin of S0 galaxies is discussed in the framework of early mergers in a cold dark matter cosmology, and in a scenario where S0s are assumed to be former...
Basic parameters of three star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Kron 11, Kron 63 and NGC 121
We present observations for three star clusters, Kron 11, Kron 63 and NGC 121, in the Small Magellanic Cloud. We have studied their structure and derived their...
BASS. XXXV. The M <SUB>BH</SUB>-σ* Relation of 105 Month Swift-BAT Type 1 AGNs
We present two independent measurements of stellar velocity dispersions (σ ⋆) from the Ca II H+K λ3969, 3934 and Mg I b λ 5183, 5172, 5167 region (3880-5550 Å)...
BAYES-LOSVD: A Bayesian framework for non-parametric extraction of the line-of-sight velocity distribution of galaxies
We introduce BAYES-LOSVD, a novel implementation of the non-parametric extraction of line-of-sight velocity distributions (LOSVDs) in galaxies. We employed...
Bayesclumpy: Bayesian Inference with Clumpy Dusty Torus Models
Our aim is to present a fast and general Bayesian inference framework based on the synergy between machine learning techniques and standard sampling methods and...
Bayesian bulge-disc decomposition of galaxy images
We introduce PHI, a fully Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm designed for the structural decomposition of galaxy images. PHI uses a triple layer...
Bayesian cosmic density field inference from redshift space dark matter maps
We present a self-consistent Bayesian formalism to sample the primordial density fields compatible with a set of dark matter density tracers after a cosmic...
Bent by baryons: the low-mass galaxy-halo relation
The relation between galaxies and dark matter haloes is of vital importance for evaluating theoretical predictions of structure formation and galaxy formation...
