From a diameter-limited sample of 86 `face-on' spiral galaxies, the bulge-to-disk size and luminosity ratios, and other quantitative measurements for the prominence of the bulge are derived. The bulge and disk parameters have been estimated…

We present the results of an exhaustive analysis of the morphological segregation of galaxies in the CfA and SSRS catalogs through the scaling formalism. Morphological segregation between ellipticals and spirals has been detected at scales…

We present the results from adaptive optics (AO) assisted imaging in the Ks band of an area of 15 arcmin^2 for SWAN (Survey of a Wide Area with NACO). We derive the high resolution near-IR morphology of ~400 galaxies up to Ks~23.5 in the…

Testing theories of hierarchical structure formation requires estimating the distribution of galaxy morphologies and its change with redshift. One aspect of this investigation involves identifying galaxies with disturbed morphologies (e.g.,…

We apply four statistical learning methods to a sample of $7941$ galaxies ($z<0.06$) from the Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey to test the feasibility of using automated algorithms to classify galaxies. Using $10$ features measured…

Wide-field imaging surveys such as the Dark Energy Survey (DES) rely on coarse measurements of spectral energy distributions in a few filters to estimate the redshift distribution of source galaxies. In this regime, sample variance, shot…

We explore the observational implications of a large systematic study of high-resolution three dimensional simulations of radio galaxies driven by supersonic jets. For this fiducial study, we employ non-relativistic hydrodynamic adiabatic…

We present a morphological analysis of distant field galaxies using the deep ACS images from the public parallel NICMOS observations of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field obtained in the F435W (B), F606W (V), F775W (i) and F850LP (z) filters. We…

Wide-field, multi-band surveys now detect millions of unresolved sources in nearby galaxy clusters, yet separating globular clusters (GCs) from foreground stars and background galaxies remains challenging. Scalable, automated classification…

Canonically, elliptical galaxies might be expected to have a perfect rotational symmetry, making them ideal targets for flexion studies - however, this assumption hasn't been tested. We have undertaken an analysis of low and high redshift…

The morphological diversity of galaxies is a relevant probe of galaxy evolution and cosmological structure formation, but the classification of galaxies in large sky surveys is becoming a significant challenge. We use data from the…

Studying the morphology of a large sample of active galaxies at different wavelengths and comparing it with active galactic nuclei (AGN) properties, such as black hole mass ($M_{BH}$) and Eddington ratio ($\lambda_{Edd}$), can help us in…

The two currently largest all-sky photometric datasets, WISE and SuperCOSMOS, were cross-matched by Bilicki et al. (2016) (B16) to construct a novel photometric redshift catalogue on 70% of the sky. Galaxies were therein separated from…
