CONCERTO: Simulating the CO, [CII], and [CI] line emission of galaxies in a 117 field and the impact of field-to-field variance
A. Gkogkou, M. Béthermin, G. Lagache +29
In the submm regime, spectral line scans and line intensity mapping (LIM) are new promising probes for the cold gas content and star formation rate of galaxies across cosmic time.…
Evidence for Merger-Driven Growth in Luminous, High-z, Obscured AGN in the CANDELS/COSMOS Field
J. L. Donley, J. Kartaltepe, D. Kocevski +27
While major mergers have long been proposed as a driver of both AGN activity and the M-sigma relation, studies of moderate to high redshift Seyfert-luminosity AGN hosts have found…
Red Sequence Cluster Finding in the Millennium Simulation
J. D. Cohn, A. E. Evrard, M. White +2
We investigate halo mass selection properties of red-sequence cluster finders using galaxy populations of the Millennium Simulation (MS). A clear red sequence exists for MS galaxie…
Morphologies of z~0.7 AGN Host Galaxies in CANDELS: No trend of merger incidence with AGN luminosity
C. Villforth, F. Hamann, D. J. Rosario +24
The processes that trigger Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) remain poorly understood. While lower luminosity AGN may be triggered by minor disturbances to the host galaxy, stronger dis…
Galaxy Cluster Mass Reconstruction Project: III. The impact of dynamical substructure on cluster mass estimates
L. Old, R. Wojtak, F. R. Pearce +14
With the advent of wide-field cosmological surveys, we are approaching samples of hundreds of thousands of galaxy clusters. While such large numbers will help reduce statistical un…
Galaxy Cluster Mass Reconstruction Project: I. Methods and first results on galaxy-based techniques
L. Old, R. A. Skibba, F. R. Pearce +18
This paper is the first in a series in which we perform an extensive comparison of various galaxy-based cluster mass estimation techniques that utilise the positions, velocities an…
AEGIS: Chandra Observation of DEEP2 Galaxy Groups and Clusters
T. Fang, B. Gerke, D. Davis +9
We present a 200 ksec Chandra observation of seven spectroscopically selected, high redshift (0.75 < z < 1.03) galaxy groups and clusters discovered by the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Su…
The All-wavelength Extended Groth Strip International Survey (AEGIS) Data Sets
M. Davis, P. Guhathakurta, N. Konidaris +53
In this the first of a series of Letters, we present a description of the panchromatic data sets that have been acquired in the Extended Groth Strip region of the sky. Our survey,…
A First Transients Survey with JWST: the FLARE project
Lifan Wang, D. Baade, E. Baron +43
JWST was conceived and built to answer one of the most fundamental questions that humans can address empirically: "How did the Universe make its first stars?". Our First Lights At…
Galaxy Cluster Mass Reconstruction Project: II. Quantifying scatter and bias using contrasting mock catalogues
L. Old, R. Wojtak, G. A. Mamon +21
This article is the second in a series in which we perform an extensive comparison of various galaxy-based cluster mass estimation techniques that utilise the positions, velocities…
Simulation of the Cosmic Evolution of Atomic and Molecular Hydrogen in Galaxies
D. Obreschkow, D. Croton, G. De Lucia +2
We present a simulation of the cosmic evolution of the atomic and molecular phases of the cold hydrogen gas in about 3e7 galaxies, obtained by post-processing the virtual galaxy ca…
[OII] emitters in MultiDark-Galaxies and DEEP2
G. Favole, V. Gonzalez-Perez, A. Orsi +13
We use three semi-analytic models (SAMs) of galaxy formation and evolution, run on the same 1Gpc MultiDark Planck2 cosmological simulation, to investigate the properties of…
Characterizing the ELG luminosity functions in the nearby Universe
G. Favole, V. Gonzalez-Perez, Y. Ascasibar +12
Nebular emission lines are powerful diagnostics for the physical processes at play in galaxy formation and evolution. Moreover, emission-line galaxies (ELGs) are one of the main ta…
CANDELS+3D-HST: compact SFGs at z~2-3, the progenitors of the first quiescent galaxies
G. Barro, S. M. Faber, P. G. Perez-Gonzalez +32
We analyze the star-forming and structural properties of 45 massive (log(M/Msun)>10) compact star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at 2<z<3 to explore whether they are progenitors of compac…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: instrument specification and target selection
J. J. Bryant, M. S. Owers, A. S. G. Robotham +54
The SAMI Galaxy Survey will observe 3400 galaxies with the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral-field spectrograph (SAMI) on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT) in a 3-year survey whi…
Galaxy Cluster Mass Reconstruction Project - IV. Understanding the effects of imperfect membership on cluster mass estimation
R. Wojtak, L. Old, G. A. Mamon +17
The primary difficulty in measuring dynamical masses of galaxy clusters from galaxy data lies in the separation between true cluster members from interloping galaxies along the lin…
The SAURON project - XV. Modes of star formation in early-type galaxies and the evolution of the red sequence
K. L. Shapiro, J. Falcon-Barroso, G. van de Ven +15
