Evidence for a nonuniform initial mass function in the local universe (2009)

Meurer, Gerhardt R., Wong, O. I., Kim, J. H., Hanish, D. J., Heckman, Timothy M., Werk, Jessica K., ...

Many of the results in modern astrophysics rest on the notion that the initial mass function (IMF) is universal. Our observations of a sample of H I selected galaxies in the light of Hα and the...

The survey for ionization in neutral gas galaxies III: diffuse, warm ionized medium and escape of ionizing radiation (2007)

Oey, M. Sally, Meurer, Gerhardt R., Yelda, Sylvana, Furst, E. J., Caballero-Nieves, S. M., Hanish, D. J., ...

We use the first data release from the SINGG Hα survey of H I-selected galaxies to study the quantitative behavior of the diffuse, warm ionized medium (WIM) across the range of properties...

NGC 922 : a new drop-through ring galaxy (2006)

Wong, O., Meurer, Gerhardt R., Bekki, Kenji, Hanish, D. J., Kennicutt, Robert C., Bland-Hawthorn, Jonathan, ...

We have found the peculiar galaxy NGC 922 to be a new drop-through ring galaxy using multiwavelength (ultraviolet-radio) imaging and spectroscopic observations. Its 'C'-shaped morphology and tidal...

The KPNO International Spectroscopic Survey. V. H-alpha-selected Survey List 3 (2005)

Jangren, Anna, Salzer, John J., Sarajedini, Vicki L., Gronwall, Caryl, Werk, Jessica K., Chomiuk, Laura, ...

The KPNO International Spectroscopic Survey (KISS) is an objective-prism survey designed to detect extragalactic emission-line objects. It combines many of the features of previous slitless...

Luminous Compact Blue Galaxies in the Local Universe (2004)

Werk, Jessica K., Jangren, Anna, Salzer, John J.

We use the KPNO International Spectroscopic Survey (KISS) for emission-line galaxies to identify and describe a sample of local analogues to the luminous compact blue galaxies (LCBGs) that are...
