DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stad943
Abstract: We analyse all the available Chandra observations of the Cartwheel galaxy and its compact group, taken between 2001 and 2008, with the main aim of addressing the variability in the X-ray band for this spectacular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stx2360
Abstract: We use hydrodynamical simulations of a Cartwheel-like ring galaxy, modelled as a nearly head-on collision of a small companion with a larger disc galaxy, to probe the evolution of the gaseous structures and flows, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz3297
Abstract: A full ring is a form of galaxy morphology that is not associated with a specific stage on the Hubble sequence. Digital sky surveys can collect many millions of galaxy images, and therefore even rare… read more here.
