Quenching of Star Formation

Vivienne Wild, Tamas Budavari, Jeremy Blaizot +5

In the last decade we have seen an enormous increase in the size and quality of spectroscopic galaxy surveys, both at low and high redshift. New statistical techniques to analyse l…

LCDM predictions for galaxy protoclusters I: the relation between galaxies, protoclusters and quasars at z~6

Roderik Overzier, Qi Guo, Guinevere Kauffmann +3

Motivated by recent observational studies of the environment of z~6 QSOs, we have used the Millennium Run (MR) simulations to construct a very large (~20 deg^2) mock redshift surve…

The Varied Fates of z~2 Star-forming Galaxies

Charlie Conroy, Alice E. Shapley, Jeremy L. Tinker +2

Star-forming galaxies constitute the majority of galaxies with stellar masses >10^10 M_Sun/h^2 at z~2 and dominate the star-formation rate density of the Universe at this early epo…

Quantifying the Cosmic Web I: The large-scale halo ellipticity-ellipticity and ellipticity-direction correlations

Jounghun Lee, Volker Springel, Ue-Li Pen +1

The formation of dark matter halos tends to occur anisotropically along the filaments of the Cosmic Web, which induces both ellipticity-ellipticity (EE) correlations between the sh…

Bursty stellar populations and obscured AGN in galaxy bulges

Vivienne Wild, Guinevere Kauffmann, Tim Heckman +5

[Abridged] We investigate trends between the recent star formation history and black hole growth in galaxy bulges in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The galaxies lie at 0.01<z…

Halo and Galaxy Formation Histories from the Millennium Simulation: Public release of a VO-oriented and SQL-queryable database for studying the evolution of galaxies in the LambdaCDM cosmogony

G. Lemson, the Virgo Consortium

The Millennium Run is the largest simulation of the formation of structure within the CDM cosmogony so far carried out. It uses particles to follow the dark matter dis…
