Comparison of simple mass estimators for slowly rotating elliptical galaxies
N. Lyskova, J. Thomas, E. Churazov +2
We compare the performance of mass estimators for elliptical galaxies that rely on the directly observable surface brightness and velocity dispersion profiles, without invoking com…
The halo merger rate in the Millennium Simulation and implications for observed galaxy merger fractions
S. Genel, R. Genzel, N. Bouché +2
We developed a new method to extract halo merger rates from the Millennium Simulation. First, by removing superfluous mergers that are artifacts of the FOF halo finder, we find a l…
Mergers and Mass Accretion Rates in Galaxy Assembly: The Millennium Simulation Compared to Observations of z~2 Galaxies
S. Genel, R. Genzel, N. Bouché +10
Recent observations of UV-/optically selected, massive star forming galaxies at z~2 indicate that the baryonic mass assembly and star formation history is dominated by continuous r…
The Formation of Spheroidal Stellar Systems
Andreas Burkert, Thorsten Naab
We summarize current models of the formation of spheroidal stellar systems. Whereas globular clusters form in an efficient mode of star formation inside turbulent molecular clouds,…
