The rotational profiles of cluster galaxies (2019)
Journal Article
Bilton, L. E., Hunt, M., Pimbblet, K. A., & Roediger, E. (2019). The rotational profiles of cluster galaxies. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 490(4), 5017-5032. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz2927

© 2019 The Author(s) We compile two samples of cluster galaxies with complimentary hydrodynamic and N-body analysis using FLASH code to ascertain how their differing populations drive their rotational profiles and to better understand their dynamical...

Heterogeneity of inverted calcium II H:K ratio cluster galaxies (2019)
Journal Article
Pimbblet, K. A., Crossett, J. P., & Fraser-McKelvie, A. (2019). Heterogeneity of inverted calcium II H:K ratio cluster galaxies. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 490(1), 455-466. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz2549

© 2019 The Author(s) Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society The ratio of calcium II H plus H∊ to calcium II K inverts as a galaxy stellar population moves from being dominated by older stars to possessing mor...

Redshift measurement through star formation (2019)
Journal Article
Lindholmer, M. O., & Pimbblet, K. A. (2019). Redshift measurement through star formation. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 629, Article A7. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201833046

© ESO 2019. In this work we use the property that, on average, star formation rate increases with redshift for objects with the same mass - the so called galaxy main sequence - to measure the redshift of galaxy clusters. We use the fact that the gene... Read More about Redshift measurement through star formation.

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.
