Major Merging History in CANDELS. I. Evolution of the Incidence of Massive Galaxy-Galaxy Pairs from z=3 to z~0
Kameswara Bharadwaj Mantha, Daniel H. McIntosh, Ryan Brennan +37
The rate of major galaxy-galaxy merging is theoretically predicted to steadily increase with redshift during the peak epoch of massive galaxy development (). We us…
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…
SMHASH: Anatomy of the Orphan Stream using RR Lyrae stars
David Hendel, Victoria Scowcroft, Kathryn V. Johnston +30
Stellar tidal streams provide an opportunity to study the motion and structure of the disrupting galaxy as well as the gravitational potential of its host. Streams around the Milky…
The KMOS Survey: rotating compact star forming galaxies and the decomposition of integrated line widths
E. Wisnioski, J. T. Mendel, N. M. Förster Schreiber +23
Using integral field spectroscopy we investigate the kinematic properties of 35 massive centrally-dense and compact star-forming galaxies (, $\log{(Σ_\…
CANDELS: Elevated Black Hole Growth in the Progenitors of Compact Quiescent Galaxies at z~2
Dale D. Kocevski, Guillermo Barro, S. M. Faber +31
We examine the fraction of massive (), compact star-forming galaxies (cSFGs) that host an active galactic nucleus (AGN) at . These cSFGs are likely…
xCOLD GASS: the complete IRAM-30m legacy survey of molecular gas for galaxy evolution studies
Amélie Saintonge, Barbara Catinella, Linda J. Tacconi +18
We introduce xCOLD GASS, a legacy survey providing a census of molecular gas in the local Universe. Building upon the original COLD GASS survey, we present here the full sample of…
