The EGIDE project releases a tenfold larger catalogue of edge-on galaxies with griz photometry, stellar masses, redshifts and star formation rates, finding that red-sequence galaxies are thicker than blue-cloud ones and show a mass-dependent increase in flattening ratio.

abstract
Using photometry and spectroscopy of 144,609 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we present bivariate distributions of pairs of seven galaxy properties: four optical colors, surface brightness, radial profile shape as measured by the Sersic index, and absolute magnitude. In addition, we present the dependence of local galaxy density (smoothed on 8 h^{-1} Mpc scales) on all of these properties. Several classic, well-known relations among galaxy properties are evident at extremely high signal-to-noise ratio: the color-color relations of galaxies, the color-magnitude relations, the magnitude-surface brightness relation, and the dependence of density on color and absolute magnitude. We show that most of the i-band luminosity density in the universe is in the absolute magnitude and surface brightness ranges used. Some of the relationships between parameters, in particular the color--magnitude relations, show stronger correlations for exponential galaxies and concentrated galaxies taken separately than for all galaxies taken together. We provide a simple set of fits of the dependence of galaxy properties on luminosity for these two sets of galaxies.

LEGGOS presents a uniform framework that jointly models lensing, photometry, and integral-field spectroscopy to disentangle stellar populations in clumps of high-redshift lensed galaxies.
PATH is extended with three fitted P(m_r|z) prior models combined with P(z|DM), raising host-association confidence for ASKAP FRBs while showing fainter-than-expected host magnitude distribution.
