Astronomers still lack a multiwavelength analysis scheme for galaxy classification. In this paper we propose a way of analysing multispectral observations aiming at refining existing classifications with spectral information. We propose a global approach which consists of decomposing the galaxy into a parametric model using physically...

In this paper, we investigate the possibilities offered by the extension of the connected component trees (cc-trees) to multivariate images. We propose a general framework for image processing using the cc-tree based on the lattice theory and we discuss the possible applications depending on the properties of the underlying ordered set. This...

We present a new method for the parametric decomposition of barred spiral galaxies in multispectral observations. The observation is modelled with a realistic image formation model and the galaxy is composed of physically significant parametric structures. The model also includes a parametric filtering to remove non desirable aspects of the...

In this paper, we propose an extension of the component tree based on at zones to hyperconnections (h-connections). The tree is dened by a special order on the h-connection and allows non at nodes. We apply this method to a particular fuzzy h-connection and we give an ecient algorithm to transform the component tree into the new fuzzy...

We develop a detailed anisotropic model for the astrophysical gravitational-wave background, including binary mergers of two stellar-mass black holes, two neutron stars, or one of each, which are expected to be the strongest contributions in the LIGO-Virgo frequency band. The angular spectrum of the anisotropies, quantified by the Cℓ...

Nous envisageons la restauration d'observations en imagerie hyperspectrale de champs profonds de l'univers pour le projet instrumental MUSE. En raison de la taille massive des données et du fort niveau de bruit, le problème global de restauration demande à la fois une réduction de dimension et la prise en compte d'informations a priori...

This paper proposes an original approach to cluster multi-component data sets, including an estimation of the number of clusters. From the construction of a minimal spanning tree with Prim's algorithm, and the assumption that the vertices are approximately distributed according to a Poisson distribution, the number of clusters is estimated by...

We present new results of our wide-field redshift survey of galaxies in a 182 square degree region of the Shapley Supercluster (SSC) based on observations with the FLAIR-II spectrograph on the UK Schmidt Telescope (UKST). In this paper we present new measurements to give a total sample of redshifts for 710 bright (R

We offer a brief response to the criticisms put forward by Cusin et al in arXiv:1811.03582 about our work arXiv:1810.13435 and arXiv:1806.01718, emphasising that none of these criticisms are relevant to our main results.

Aims: ``Compact ellipticals'' are so rare that a search for M32 analogs is needed to ensure the very existence of this class. Methods: We report here the discovery of A496cE, a M32 twin in the cluster Abell 496, located in the halo of the central cD. Results: Based on CFHT and HST imaging we show that the light profile of A496cE requires a two...

We present results of our wide-field redshift survey of galaxies in a 285 square degree region of the Shapley Supercluster (SSC), based on a set of 10529 velocity measurements (including 1201 new ones) on 8632 galaxies obtained from various telescopes and from the literature. Our data reveal that the main plane of the SSC (v~ 14500 km/s)...
