The ATLAS3D project - XXII. Low-efficiency star formation in early-type galaxies: hydrodynamic models and observations
Marie Martig, Alison F. Crocker, Frederic Bournaud +27
We study the global efficiency of star formation in high resolution hydrodynamical simulations of gas discs embedded in isolated early-type and spiral galaxies. Despite using a uni…
A diversity of progenitors and histories for isolated spiral galaxies
Marie Martig, Frederic Bournaud, Darren J. Croton +2
We analyze a suite of 33 cosmological simulations of the evolution of Milky Way-mass galaxies in low-density environments. Our sample spans a broad range of Hubble types at z=0, fr…
Formation of late-type spiral galaxies: gas return from stellar populations regulates disk destruction and bulge growth
Marie Martig, Frederic Bournaud
Spiral galaxies have most of their stellar mass in a large rotating disk, and only a modest fraction in a central spheroidal bulge. This poses a major challenge for cosmological mo…
The thick disks of spiral galaxies as relics from gas-rich, turbulent, clumpy disks at high redshift
Frederic Bournaud, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Marie Martig
The formation of thick stellar disks in spiral galaxies is studied. Simulations of gas-rich young galaxies show formation of internal clumps by gravitational instabilities, clump c…
How ubiquitous are massive starbursts in interacting galaxies?
P. Di Matteo, F. Bournaud, M. Martig +3
Many evidences exist for a connection between galaxy interactions and induced star formation. However, a large range of responses of galaxies to tidal interactions is found, both i…
Morphological quenching of star formation: making early-type galaxies red
Marie Martig, Frederic Bournaud, Romain Teyssier +1
We point out a natural mechanism for quenching of star formation in early-type galaxies. It automatically links the color of a galaxy with its morphology and does not require gas c…
