We review the use of emission lines for understanding galaxy evolution, focusing on
excitation source, metallicity, ionization parameter, ISM pressure, and electron density. We …

Understanding the formation of stars in galaxies is central to much of modern astrophysics.
However, a quantitative prediction of the star formation rate and the initial distribution of …

The rapidly expanding field of galaxy formation lies at the interface between astronomy,
particle physics, and cosmology. Covering diverse topics from these disciplines, all of which …

Abstract We utilize Sloan Digital Sky Survey imaging and spectroscopy of~ 53,000 star-
forming galaxies at z~ 0.1 to study the relation between stellar mass and gas-phase …

We study the population of galactic discs expected in current hierarchical clustering models
for structure formation. A rotationally supported disc with exponential surface density profile …

This paper gives an overview of the attempts to determine the distribution of dark matter in
low surface brightness disk and gas‐rich dwarf galaxies, both through observations and …

We investigate the effect of metallicity calibrations, AGN classification, and aperture covering
fraction on the local mass-metallicity (MZ) relation using 27,730 star-forming galaxies from …

We study the relations between stellar mass, star formation history, size and internal
structure for a complete sample of 122 808 galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky …

ABSTRACT The baryonic Tully–Fisher relation (BTFR) is an empirical relation between
baryonic mass and rotation velocity in disk galaxies. It provides tests of galaxy formation …

Abstract We explore the Tully-Fisher relation over five decades in stellar mass in galaxies
with circular velocities ranging over 30≲ V c≲ 300 km s-1. We find a clear break in the …
