A numerical study of interactions and stellar bars

Inma Martinez-Valpuesta, J. Alfonso L. Aguerri, A. César González-García +2

For several decades it has been known that stellar bars in disc galaxies can be triggered by interactions, or by internal processes such as dynamical instabilities. In this work, w…

The fate of high-redshift massive compact galaxies

Ignacio G. de la Rosa, Francesco La Barbera, Ignacio Ferreras +4

Massive high-redshift quiescent compact galaxies (nicknamed red nuggets) have been traditionally connected to present-day elliptical galaxies, often overlooking the relationships t…

A cosmological context for compact massive galaxies

Martin Stringer, Ignacio Trujillo, Claudio Dalla Vecchia +1

To provide a quantitative cosmological context to ongoing observational work on the formation histories and location of compact massive galaxies, we locate and study a sample of ex…

Galaxy size trends as a consequence of cosmology

M. J. Stringer, F. Shankar, G. S. Novak +3

We show that recently documented trends in galaxy sizes with mass and redshift can be understood in terms of the influence of underlying cosmic evolution; a holistic view which is…

Principles of supernova-driven winds

M. J. Stringer, R. G. Bower, S. Cole +2

The formation of galaxies is regulated by a balance between the supply of gas and the rate at which it is ejected. Traditional explanations of gas ejection equate the energy requir…

Star formation trends in high-redshift galaxy surveys: the elephant or the tail?

Martin Stringer, Shaun Cole, Carlos S. Frenk +1

Star formation rate and accummulated stellar mass are two fundamental physical quantities that describe the evolutionary state of a forming galaxy. Two recent attempts to determine…
