  • The Effect of Bulge Mass on Bar Pattern Speed in Disk Galaxies 
    Kataria, Sandeep Kumar; Mousumi Das (IOP Publishing, 2019-11)
    We present a study of the effect of bulge mass on the evolution of bar pattern speed in isolated disk galaxies using N -body simulations. Earlier studies have shown that disk stars at the inner resonances can transfer a ...
  • The effect of dark matter halo shape on bar buckling and boxy/peanut bulges 
    Ankit Kumar; Mousumi Das; Kataria, Sandeep Kumar (Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society, 2022-01)
    It is well established that bars evolve significantly after they form in galaxy discs, often changing shape both in and out of the disc plane. In some cases they may bend or buckle out of the disc plane resulting in the ...
  • Estimating the Oblateness of Dark Matter Halos Using Neutral Hydrogen Velocity Dispersion 
    Mousumi Das; Ianjamasimanana, Roger; McGaugh, Stacy S; Schombert, James; Dwarakanath, K. S (American Astronomical Society, 2023-03-20)
    We derive the oblateness parameter q of the dark matter halo of a sample of gas-rich, face-on disk galaxies. We have assumed that the halos are triaxial in shape but their axes in the disk plane (a and b) are equal, so ...
  • The evolution of bulges of galaxies in minor fly-by interactions 
    Kumar, A; Mousumi Das; Kataria, Sandeep Kumar (Cambridge University Press, 2019-06)
    We investigate the minor interactions of two disk galaxies with mass ratio of 10:1 in fly-by encounters that do not lead to the merging of the galaxies. In our N-body simulations, we vary only the pericenter distances to ...
  • Excitation of vertical breathing motion in disc galaxies by tidally-induced spirals in fly-by interactions 
    Kumar, Ankit; Ghosh, Soumavo; Kataria, Sandeep Kumar; Mousumi Das; Debattista, Victor P (Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society, 2022-10)
    It is now clear that the stars in the Solar neighbourhood display large-scale coherent vertical breathing motions. At the same time, Milky Way-like galaxies experience tidal interactions with satellites/companions during ...

    We present H i, optical, and near-infrared observations of the nearby bulgeless, dwarf spiral galaxy NGC 4701. The galaxy lies on the Virgo filament and is one of the most gas-rich dwarfs in our local environment. Our aim ...
  • From nearby low luminosity AGN to High Redshift Radio Galaxies: science interests with square kilometre array

    We present detailed science cases that a large fraction of the Indian AGN community is interested in pursuing with the upcoming Square Kilometre Array (SKA). These interests range from understanding low luminosity active ...
  • Galaxy flybys: evolution of the bulge, disc, and spiral arms 
    Ankit Kumar; Mousumi Das; Kataria, Sandeep Kumar (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021-09)
    Galaxy flybys are as common as mergers in low-redshift Universe and are important for galaxy evolution as they involve the exchange of significant amounts of mass and energy. In this study, we investigate the effect of ...
  • Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxies 
    Mishra, A; Kantharia, N. G; Mousumi Das; Nimisha, G (Bulletin de la Societe Royale des Sciences de Liege, 2018-04)
    In this paper, we present radio observations of the giant low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies made using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). LSB galaxies are generally large, dark matter dominated spirals that ...
  • Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxies: Evolution in Isolation 
    Mousumi Das (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2013-03)
    Giant Low Surface Brightness (GLSB) galaxies are amongst the most massive spiral galaxies that we know of in our Universe. Although they fall in the class of late type spiral galaxies, their properties are far more ...
  • Hidden in plain sight: UVIT and MUSE discovery of a large, diffuse star-forming galaxy 
    Yadav, Jyoti; Mousumi Das; Barway, Sudhanshu; Combes, Francoise (EDP Sciences, 2022-01)
    We report the discovery of a nearby large, diffuse galaxy that shows star formation using Ultra Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) far-UV observations and archival optical data from Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE), ...
  • Late time X-ray, IR and radio observations of the tidal disruption event galaxy NGC 5905 
    Raichur, H; Mousumi Das; Herrero, A. A; Shastri, P; Kantharia, N. G (Springer, 2015-04)
    NGC 5905 is one of the few galaxies with no prior evidence for an active galactic nucleus (AGN) in which an X-ray flare was detected by the ROSAT All Sky Survey (RASS) in 1990–1991. Follow-up studies showed that the X-ray ...
  • Modelling dark matter halo spin using observations and simulations: application to UGC 5288 
    Ansar, Sioree; Kataria, Sandeep Kumar; Mousumi Das (Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society, 2023-06)
    Dark matter (DM) halo properties are extensively studied in cosmological simulations but are very challenging to estimate from observations. The DM halo density profile of observed galaxies is modelled using multiple ...
  • Multiwavelength analysis of low surface brightness galaxies to study possible dark matter signature 
    Bhattacharjee, P; Majumdar, P; Mousumi Das; Das, Subinoy; Joarder, P. S; Biswas, Sayan (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021-03)
    Low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies have very diffuse, low surface density stellar discs that appear faint in optical images. They are very rich in neutral hydrogen (H I) gas, which extends well beyond the stellar discs. ...
