Outflows in the Gaseous Discs of Active Galaxies and their impact on Black Hole Scaling Relations
N. Menci, F. Fiore, F. Shankar +2
To tackle the still unsolved and fundamental problem of the role of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) feedback in shaping galaxies, in this work we implement a new physical treatment of…
The size function of massive satellites from the and relations: constraining the role of environment
Lorenzo Zanisi, Francesco Shankar, Mariangela Bernardi +2
In previous work we showed that a semi-empirical model in which galaxies in host dark matter haloes are assigned stellar masses via a stellar mass-halo mass (SMHM) relation and siz…
The evolution of compact massive quiescent and starforming galaxies derived from the and relations
L. Zanisi, F. Shankar, H. Fu +12
The mean size ( effective radius ) of Massive Galaxies (MGs, ) is observed to increase steadily with cosmic time. It is still unclear whether th…
The MAGPI Survey -- science goals, design, observing strategy, early results and theoretical framework
C. Foster, J. T. Mendel, C. D. P. Lagos +40
We present an overview of the Middle Ages Galaxy Properties with Integral Field Spectroscopy (MAGPI) survey, a Large Program on ESO/VLT. MAGPI is designed to study the physical dri…
The relationship between fine galaxy stellar morphology and star formation activity in cosmological simulations: a deep learning view
Lorenzo Zanisi, Marc Huertas-Company, Francois Lanusse +10
Hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation and evolution attempt to fully model the physics that shapes galaxies. The agreement between the morphology of simulated and real gal…
Probing black hole accretion tracks, scaling relations and radiative efficiencies from stacked X-ray active galactic nuclei
Francesco Shankar, David H. Weinberg, Christopher Marsden +25
The masses of supermassive black holes at the centres of local galaxies appear to be tightly correlated with the mass and velocity dispersions of their galactic hosts. However, the…
Galaxy sizes and the galaxy-halo connection -- I: the remarkable tightness of the size distributions
Lorenzo Zanisi, Francesco Shankar, Andrea Lapi +6
The mass and structural assembly of galaxies is a matter of intense debate. Current theoretical models predict the existence of a linear relationship between galaxy size () an…
Constraining black hole-galaxy scaling relations from the large-scale clustering of Active Galactic Nuclei and implied mean radiative efficiency
Francesco Shankar, Viola Allevato, Mariangela Bernardi +11
A supermassive black hole has been found at the centre of nearly every galaxy observed with sufficient sensitivity. The masses of these black holes are observed to increase with ei…
Predicting fully self-consistent satellite richness, galaxy growth and starformation rates from the STastical sEmi-Empirical modeL STEEL
Philip J. Grylls, F. Shankar, J. Leja +4
Observational systematics complicate comparisons with theoretical models limiting understanding of galaxy evolution. In particular, different empirical determinations of the stella…
The Main Sequence at contains a sizable fraction of galaxies with compact star formation sizes: a new population of early post-starbursts?
A. Puglisi, E. Daddi, D. Liu +20
ALMA measurements for 93 -selected galaxies at in COSMOS reveal a sizable (\%) population with compact star formation (SF) sizes, lyi…
A Statistical Semi-Empirical Model: Satellite galaxies in Groups and Clusters
P. J. Grylls, F. Shankar, L. Zanisi +1
We present STEEL a STatistical sEmi-Empirical modeL designed to probe the distribution of satellite galaxies in groups and clusters. Our fast statistical methodology relies on trac…
The Dramatic Size and Kinematic Evolution of Massive Early-Type Galaxies
A. Lapi, L. Pantoni, L. Zanisi +6
[ABRIDGED] We aim to provide a holistic view on the typical size and kinematic evolution of massive early-type galaxies (ETGs), that encompasses their high- star-forming progeni…
Revisiting the bulge-halo conspiracy II: Towards explaining its puzzling dependence on redshift
Francesco Shankar, Alessandro Sonnenfeld, Philip Grylls +8
We carry out a systematic investigation of the total mass density profile of massive (Mstar~3e11 Msun) early-type galaxies and its dependence on redshift, specifically in the range…
