  • Relativistic Jet Motion in the Radio-quiet LINER Galaxy KISSR 872 
    Kharb, Preeti; Blackman, Eric G; Clausen-Brown, Eric; Mousumi Das; Schwartz, Daniel A; Siemiginowska, Aneta; Subramanian, S; Vaddi, Sravani (American Astronomical Society, 2024-02-20)
    We report superluminal jet motion with an apparent speed of βapp = 1.65 ± 0.57 in the radio-quiet (RQ) lowionization nuclear emission-line region (LINER) galaxy KISSR 872. This result comes from two-epoch phasereferenced ...
  • The search for binary black holes in Seyferts with double peaked emission lines 
    Kharb, P; Mousumi Das; Subramanian, S; Paragi, Z (Astronomical Society of India, 2015-04)
    We discuss results from very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of two Seyfert galaxies with double peaked emission lines in their SDSS optical spectra. Such AGN are potential candidates for the presence ...
  • Searching for dual AGN in galaxies with double-peaked emission line spectra using radio observations 
    Rubinur, K; Mousumi Das; Kharb, P (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019-04)
    Supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries form due to galaxy mergers and minor accretion events. When the SMBHs are accreting, they form dual or binary AGN and can give rise to double-peaked emission lines in the optical ...
  • Star formation in bulgeless late-type galaxies: clues to their evolution 
    Mousumi Das; Sengupta, C; Ramya, S; Misra, K (Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-07)
    We present Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope 1280-MHz radio continuum observations and follow-up optical studies of the disc and nuclear star formation in a sample of low-luminosity bulgeless galaxies. The main aim is to ...
  • Starbursts triggered by central overpressure in interacting galaxies 
    Mousumi Das; Jog, C. J (Astronomical Society of India, 1993)
    We present a triggering mechanism for starbursts in the central regions of interacting galaxies. As a disk giant molecular cloud (GMC) falls into the central region of a galaxy following a galaxy encounter, it may be ...
  • A study of the effect of bulges on bar formation in disc galaxies 
    Kataria, Sandeep Kumar; Mousumi Das (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018-04)
    We use N-body simulations of bar formation in isolated galaxies to study the effect of bulge mass and bulge concentration on bar formation. Bars are global disc instabilities that evolve by transferring angular momentum ...
  • A study of the effect of bulges on bar formation in disc galaxies 
    Kataria, Sandeep Kumar; Mousumi Das (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018-04)
    We use N-body simulations of bar formation in isolated galaxies to study the effect of bulge mass and bulge concentration on bar formation. Bars are global disc instabilities that evolve by transferring angular momentum ...
  • A study of the H I and optical properties of Low Surface Brightness galaxies: spirals, dwarfs, and irregulars 
    Honey, M; Driel, W van; Mousumi Das; Martin, J. M (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018-06)
    We present a study of the HI and optical properties of nearby (z ≤ 0.1) Low Surface Brightness galaxies (LSBGs). We started with a literature sample of ∼900 LSBGs and divided them into three morphological classes: ...
  • A study of the star-forming regions in the spiral galaxy NGC 2336 using the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) 
    Rahna, P. T; Mousumi Das; Murthy, J; Gudennavar, S. B; Bubbly, S. G (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018-11)
    We present a far-ultraviolet (FUV) and near-ultraviolet (NUV) imaging study at 1.2 arcsec resolution of recent star formation in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 2336 using the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on-board ...
  • Studying the radio continuum from nuclear activity and star formation in giant low surface brightness galaxies 
    Mishra, A; Kantharia, N. G; Mousumi Das; Srivastava, D. C; Vogel, S. N (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015-03-11)
    We present a multifrequency radio continuum study of seven giant low surface brightness (GLSB) galaxies using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). GLSB galaxies are optically faint, dark-matter-dominated systems ...
  • Template-based classification of SDSS-GALEX point sources 
    Anjum, A; Mousumi Das; Murthy, J; Gudennavar, S. B; Rajesh, G; Bubbly, S. G (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018-10)
    We have classified a sample of 37,492 objects from SDSS into QSOs, galaxies and stars using photometric data over five wave bands (u, g, r, i and z) and UV GALEX data over two wave bands (near-UV and far-UV) based on a ...
  • Tracing the Dynamical Mass in Galaxy Disks Using H i Velocity Dispersion and Its Implications for the Dark Matter Distribution in Galaxies 
    Mousumi Das; McGaugh, S. S; Ianjamasimanana, Roger; Schombert, James; Dwarakanath, K. S (IOP Publishing, 2020-01-20)
    We present a method to derive the dynamical mass of face-on galaxy disks using their neutral hydrogen (H i) velocity dispersion (σ H i ). We have applied the method to nearby, gas-rich galaxies that have extended H i gas ...
  • Tracing the evolution of ultraluminous infrared galaxies into radio galaxies with low frequency radio observations 
    Nandi, S; Mousumi Das; Dwarakanath, K. S (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021-06)
    We present radio observations of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) and combine them with archival multifrequency observations to understand whether ULIRGs are the ...
  • A triple active galactic nucleus in the NGC 7733–7734 merging group 
    Yadav, Jyoti; Mousumi Das; Barway, Sudhanshu; Combes, Francoise (EDP Sciences, 2021-07)
    Context. Galaxy interactions and mergers can lead to supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries, which become active galactic nucleus (AGN) pairs when the SMBHs start accreting mass. If there is a third galaxy involved in the ...
  • Understanding galaxy mergers and AGN feedback with UVIT 
    Rubinur, K; Mousumi Das; Kharb, Preeti; Rahne, P. T (Cambridge University Press, 2021-01)
    Simulations expect an enhanced star-formation and active galactic nuclei (AGN) activity during galaxy mergers, which can lead to formation of binary/dual AGN. AGN feedback can enhance or suppress star-formation. We have ...
  • A UVIT Look at Star Formation in Nearby Interacting/Merging Galaxies 
    Mousumi Das (Cambridge University Press on behalf of International Astronomical Union, 2023)
    The interactions and mergers of gas rich galaxies are known to produce star formation which often leads to nuclear activity as well. The star formation is ideally mapped using FUV and NUV emission, since UV traces star ...
