Simulating Observations of Dark Matter Dominated Galaxies: Towards the Optimal Halo Profile

W. J. G. de Blok, A. Bosma, S. S. McGaugh

A census of metals at high and low redshifts and the connection between submillimetre sources and spheroid formation

L. Dunne, S. A. Eales, M. G. Edmunds

Deep surveys in many wavebands have shown that the rate at which stars were forming was at least a factor of 10 higher at z > 1 than today. Heavy elements (metals) are produced by…
