The Role of Galactic Winds on Molecular Gas Emission from Galaxy Mergers
Desika Narayanan, T. J. Cox, Brandon Kelly +7
We assess the impact of starburst and AGN feedback-driven winds on the CO emission from galaxy mergers, and, in particular, search for signatures of these winds in the simulated CO…
Rest-Frame Ultraviolet to Near Infrared Observations of an Interacting Lyman Break Galaxy at z = 4.42
Joshua D. Younger, Jia-Sheng Huang, Giovanni G. Fazio +11
We present the rest-frame ultraviolet through near infrared spectral energy distribution for an interacting Lyman break galaxy at a redshift z=4.42, the highest redshift merging sy…
An Observed Fundamental Plane Relation for Supermassive Black Holes
Philip F. Hopkins, Lars Hernquist, Thomas J. Cox +2
We study observed correlations between supermassive black hole (BHs) and the properties of their host galaxies, and show that the observations define a BH 'fundamental plane' (BHFP…
The Nature of CO Emission From z~6 Quasars
Desika Narayanan, Yuexing Li, Thomas J. Cox +9
We investigate the nature of CO emission from z~6 quasars by combining non-LTE radiative transfer calculations with merger-driven models of z~6 quasar formation that arise naturall…
A Cosmological Framework for the Co-Evolution of Quasars, Supermassive Black Holes, and Elliptical Galaxies: II. Formation of Red Ellipticals
Philip F. Hopkins, Thomas J. Cox, Dusan Keres +1
(Abridged) We develop and test a model for the cosmological role of mergers in the formation and quenching of red, early-type galaxies. Making the ansatz that star formation is que…
A Cosmological Framework for the Co-Evolution of Quasars, Supermassive Black Holes, and Elliptical Galaxies: I. Galaxy Mergers & Quasar Activity
Philip F. Hopkins, Lars Hernquist, Thomas J. Cox +1
(Abridged) We develop a model for the cosmological role of mergers in the evolution of starbursts, quasars, and spheroidal galaxies. Combining halo mass functions (MFs) with empiri…
