The effect of minor and major mergers on the evolution of low excitation radio galaxies (2019)
Journal Article
Gordon, Y. A., Pimbblet, K. A., Kaviraj, S., Owers, M. S., O'Dea, C. P., Walmsley, M., Baum, S. A., Crossett, J. P., Fraser-Mckelvie, A., Lintott, C. J., & Pierce, J. C. (2019). The effect of minor and major mergers on the evolution of low excitation radio galaxies. The Astrophysical journal, 878(2), Article 88. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ab203f

We use deep, μ r lesssim 28 mag arcsec−2, r-band imaging from the Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey to search for past, or ongoing, merger activity in a sample of 282 low-excitation radio galaxies (LERGs) at z < 0.07. Our principal aim is to assess t... Read More about The effect of minor and major mergers on the evolution of low excitation radio galaxies.

A photometrically and spectroscopically confirmed population of passive spiral galaxies (2016)
Journal Article
Fraser-McKelvie, A., Brown, M. J. I., Pimbblet, K. A., Dolley, T., Crossett, J. P., & Bonne, N. J. (2016). A photometrically and spectroscopically confirmed population of passive spiral galaxies. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Letters, 462(1), L11-L15. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/slw117

We have identified a population of passive spiral galaxies from photometry and integral field spectroscopy. We selected z < 0.035 spiral galaxies that have WISE colours consistent with little mid-infrared emission from warm dust. Matched aperture pho...

The many assembly histories of massive void galaxies as revealed by integral field spectroscopy (2016)
Journal Article
Fraser-McKelvie, A., Pimbblet, K. A., Penny, S. J., & Brown, M. J. I. (2016). The many assembly histories of massive void galaxies as revealed by integral field spectroscopy. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 459(1), 754-770. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw677

We present the first detailed integral field spectroscopy study of nine central void galaxies with M*>10¹⁰Mʘ using the Wide Field Spectrograph to determine how a range of assembly histories manifest themselves in the current day Universe.While the ma...

The rarity of star formation in brightest cluster galaxies as measured by WISE (2014)
Journal Article
Fraser-McKelvie, A., Brown, M. J. I., & Pimbblet, K. A. (2014). The rarity of star formation in brightest cluster galaxies as measured by WISE. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Letters, 444(1), L63-L67. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/slu117

We present the mid-infrared star formation rates of 245 X-ray selected, nearby (z < 0.1) brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs). A homogeneous and volume limited sample of BCGs was created by X-ray selecting clusters with Lx > 1 × 1044 erg s⁻ ¹. The Wide-...

The drivers of AGN activity in galaxy clusters: AGN fraction as a function of mass and environment (2012)
Journal Article
Pimbblet, K. A., Shabala, S. S., Haines, C. P., Fraser-McKelvie, A., & Floyd, D. J. E. (2013). The drivers of AGN activity in galaxy clusters: AGN fraction as a function of mass and environment. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 429(2), 1827-1839. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sts470

We present an analysis of optical spectroscopically identified active galactic nuclei (AGN) down to a cluster magnitude of M * + 1 in a sample of six self-similar Sloan Digital Sky Survey galaxy clusters at z ~ 0.07. These clusters are specifically s... Read More about The drivers of AGN activity in galaxy clusters: AGN fraction as a function of mass and environment.
