Galaxy properties are known to correlate with their location within the cosmic web. However, the role of filaments remains poorly understood, particularly for low-mass galaxies, which are expected to be more sensitive to environmental…

We present the properties of galaxies in filaments around the Virgo cluster with respect to their vertical distance from the filament spine using the NASA-Sloan Atlas catalog. The filaments are mainly composed of low-mass, blue dwarf…

We investigate the alignment of the spin of dark matter halos relative (i) to the surrounding large-scale filamentary structure, and (ii) to the tidal tensor eigenvectors using the Horizon 4pi dark matter simulation which resolves over 43…

We explore the evolution of halo spins in the cosmic web using a very large sample of dark matter haloes in the $\Lambda$CDM Planck-Millennium N-body simulation. We use the NEXUS+ multiscale formalism to identify the hierarchy of filaments…

We have developed an automated cross-correlation technique to detect 21cm emission in sample spectra obtained from the HI Parkes All Sky Survey. The initial sample selection was the nearest spectra to 2435 low surface brightness galaxies in…

We use a combination of data from the MaNGA survey and MaNGA-like observations in IllustrisTNG100 to determine the prevalence of misalignment between the rotational axes of stars and gas. This census paper outlines the typical…

We examine the dependence between hydrogen total mass $M_{HI}$ and rotation speed $V_{rot}$, optical size $D_{25}$ or disc radial scale $R_0$ for two samples of late-type galaxies: a) isolated galaxy (AMIGA sample), and b) the edge-on…

We have examined the trend between CO and HI linewidths by compiling the linewidths of 219 nearby galaxies. The trend is that the CO linewidths of fast rotating galaxies tend to be larger than the HI linewidths, and that the HI linewidths…

The properties of galaxies follow scaling relations related to the physics that govern galaxy evolution. Based on these, we can identify galaxies undergoing specific evolutionary processes such as HI-excess galaxies, which have relatively…

The properties of galaxies are known to have been influenced by the large-scale structures that they inhabit. Theory suggests that galaxies acquire angular momentum during the linear stage of structure formation, and hence predict…
