The galaxy in context: structural, kinematic, and integrated properties

J Bland-Hawthorn, O Gerhard - Annual Review of Astronomy …, 2016 - annualreviews.org
Our Galaxy, the Milky Way, is a benchmark for understanding disk galaxies. It is the only
galaxy whose formation history can be studied using the full distribution of stars from faint …

Gaseous galaxy halos

ME Putman, JEG Peek, MR Joung - Annual Review of …, 2012 - annualreviews.org
Galactic halo gas traces inflowing star-formation fuel and feedback from a galaxy's disk and
is therefore crucial to our understanding of galaxy evolution. In this review, we summarize …

How cold gas continuously entrains mass and momentum from a hot wind

M Gronke, SP Oh - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
The existence of fast moving, cold gas ubiquitously observed in galactic winds is
theoretically puzzling, since the destruction time of cold gas is much smaller than its …

New Understanding of Large Magellanic Cloud Structure, Dynamics, andOrbit from Carbon Star Kinematics

We present the HIPASS Bright Galaxy Catalog (BGC), which contains the 1000 HI brightest
galaxies in the southern sky as obtained from the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS). The …

A giant stream of metal-rich stars in the halo of the galaxy M31

R Ibata, M Irwin, G Lewis, AMN Ferguson, N Tanvir - Nature, 2001 - nature.com
Recent observations have revealed streams of gas and stars in the halo of the Milky Way,,
that are the debris from interactions between our Galaxy and some of its dwarf companion …

The Magellanic stream: circumnavigating the Galaxy

E D'Onghia, AJ Fox - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2016 - annualreviews.org
The Magellanic Clouds are surrounded by an extended network of gaseous structures. Chief
among these is the Magellanic Stream, an interwoven tail of filaments trailing the Clouds in …
