Deep Extragalactic VIsible Legacy Survey (DEVILS): Morphologically-selected galaxy merger fractions and their direct comparison to close-pair samples

Melissa F. Fuentealba-Fuentes, Luke J. M. Davies, Aaron S. G. Robotham +4

Galaxy mergers are a central driver of galaxy evolution across cosmic time, and thus, quantifying their frequency is critical for constraining hierarchical models of galaxy formati…

Deep Extragalactic VIsible Legacy Survey (DEVILS): Satellite Quenching at Intermediate Redshift

L. J. M. Davies, M. F. Fuentealba-Fuentes, R. J. Wright +3

Determining the processes by which galaxies transition from a star-forming to a quiescent state (quenching) is paramount to our understanding of galaxy evolution. One of the key me…

Deep Extragalactic VIsible Legacy Survey (DEVILS): New robust merger rates at intermediate redshifts

Melissa F. Fuentealba-Fuentes, Luke J. M. Davies, Aaron S. G. Robotham +5

Mergers are fundamental to our understanding of the processes driving the evolution of the structure and morphology of galaxies, star formation, AGN activity, and the redistributio…

Study of the kpc circumgalactic environment around the merger system J2057-0030 at 4.6 using ALMA

M. Fuentealba-Fuentes, P. Lira, T. Díaz-Santos +3

We present ALMA band-7 observations of J2057-0030, a multi-component merger system at 4.68 spanning at least 50 kpc in size, using the [CII] 157.74 m line and un…
