Luminosity and stellar mass functions of disks and spheroids in the SDSS and the supermassive black hole mass function

A. J. Benson, Dajana Dzanovic, C. S. Frenk +1

Using the Galactica code of Benson et al., we obtain quantitative measurements of spheroid-to-disk ratios for a sample of 8839 galaxies observed in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We…

COSMOS : Hubble Space Telescope Observations

N. Scoville, A. Benson, A. W. Blain +50

The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) was initiated with an extensive allocation (590 orbits in Cycles 12-13) using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) for high resolution imaging. Her…

Investigating hot gas in the halos of two massive spirals: Observations and cosmological simulations

Jesper Rasmussen, Jesper Sommer-Larsen, Kristian Pedersen +4

Models of disk galaxy formation commonly predict the existence of an extended reservoir of hot gas surrounding massive spirals at low redshift. As a test of these models, we have o…

The Evolving Luminosity Function of Red Galaxies

Michael J. I. Brown, Arjun Dey, Buell T. Jannuzi +5

We trace the assembly history of red galaxies since z=1, by measuring their evolving space density with the B-band luminosity function. Our sample of 39599 red galaxies, selected f…

Tidal Mass Loss from Collisionless Systems

M. Kampakoglou, A. J. Benson

We examine the problem tidally-induced mass loss from collisionless systems such as dark matter haloes. We develop a model for tidal mass loss, based upon the phase space distribut…
