Predictions for the CO emission of galaxies from a coupled simulation of galaxy formation and photon dominated regions

Claudia del P. Lagos, Estelle Bayet, Carlton M. Baugh +4

We combine the galaxy formation model GALFORM with the Photon Dominated Region code UCL_PDR to study the emission from the rotational transitions of 12CO (CO) in galaxies from z=0…

The hidden circumgalactic medium

Claudia Cicone, Carlos De Breuck, Chian-Chou Chen +15

The cycling of baryons in and out of galaxies is what ultimately drives galaxy formation and evolution. The circumgalactic medium (CGM) represents the interface between the interst…

Deep Ultraviolet, Emission-Line Imaging of the Makani Galactic Wind

Triet Ha, David Rupke, Shane Caraker +14

The OVI 1032, 1038 A line is a key probe of cooling gas in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of galaxies, but has been observed to date primarily in absorption along single sightline…

Ionized Gas Extended Over 40 kpc in an Odd Radio Circle Host Galaxy

Alison L. Coil, Serena Perrotta, David S. N. Rupke +10

A new class of extragalactic astronomical sources discovered in 2021, named Odd Radio Circles (ORCs, Norris et al. 2021), are large rings of faint, diffuse radio continuum emission…

The K-band Hubble diagram of sub-mm galaxies and hyperluminous galaxies

Stephen Serjeant, Duncan Farrah, James Geach +4

We present the K-band Hubble diagrams (K-z relations) of sub-mm-selected galaxies and hyperluminous galaxies (HLIRGs). We report the discovery of a remarkably tight K-z relation of…

The SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey: The clustering of submillimetre galaxies in the UKIDSS UDS field

Aaron Wilkinson, Omar Almaini, Chian-Chou Chen +20

Submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) are among the most luminous dusty galaxies in the Universe, but their true nature remains unclear; are SMGs the progenitors of the massive elliptical…
