Journal Article
Penny, S. J., Pimbblet, K. A., Conselice, C. J., Brown, M. J., Grützbauch, R., & Floyd, D. J. (2012). Tidal interactions at the edge of the Local Group: New evidence for tidal features in the antlia Dwarf galaxy. Astrophysical journal. Letters, 758(2), Article L32. https://doi.org/10.1088/2041-8205/758/2/L32

Using deep B-band imaging down to μ B = 26 mag arcsec -2 , we present evidence for tidal tails in the Antlia Dwarf galaxy, one of the most distant members of the Local Group. This elongation is in the direction of Antlia's nearest neighbor, the Magel...

The connection between radio loudness and central surface brightness profiles in optically selected low-luminosity active galaxies (2011)
Journal Article
Richings, A. J., Uttley, P., & Körding, E. (2011). The connection between radio loudness and central surface brightness profiles in optically selected low-luminosity active galaxies. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 415(3), 2158-2172. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.18845.x

Recent results indicate a correlation between nuclear radio loudness of active galaxies and their central stellar surface-brightness profiles, in that 'core' galaxies (with inner logarithmic slope γ≤ 0.3) are significantly more radio loud than 'power...

Field and globular cluster low-mass X-ray binaries in NGC 4278 (2010)
Journal Article
Fabbiano, G., Brassington, N. J., Lentati, L., Angelini, L., Davies, R. L., Gallagher, J., Kalogera, V., Kim, D. W., King, A. R., Kundu, A., Pellegrini, S., Richings, A. J., Trinchieri, G., Zezas, A., & Zepf, S. (2010). Field and globular cluster low-mass X-ray binaries in NGC 4278. The Astrophysical journal, 725(2), 1824-1847. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637X/725/2/1824

We report a detailed spectral analysis of the population of low-massX-ray binaries (LMXBs) detected in the elliptical galaxy NGC 4278 with Chandra. Seven luminous sources were studied individually, four in globular clusters (GCs) and three in the ste... Read More about Field and globular cluster low-mass X-ray binaries in NGC 4278.

The hot interstellar medium of the interacting galaxy NGC 4490 (2010)
Journal Article
Richings, A. J., Fabbiano, G., Wang, J., & Roberts, T. P. (2010). The hot interstellar medium of the interacting galaxy NGC 4490. The Astrophysical journal, 723(2), 1375-1392. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637X/723/2/1375

We present an analysis of the hot interstellar medium (ISM) in the spiral galaxy NGC 4490, which is interacting with the irregular galaxy NGC 4485, using ∼100 ks of Chandra ACIS-S observations. The high angular resolution of Chandra enables us to rem... Read More about The hot interstellar medium of the interacting galaxy NGC 4490.
