Evaluating and Improving Semi-analytic modeling of Dust in Galaxies based on Radiative Transfer Calculations II: Dust Emission in the Infrared
Fabio Fontanot, Rachel S. Somerville
Interstellar dust grains are responsible for modifying the spectral energy distribution (SED) of galaxies, both absorbing starlight at UV and optical wavelengths and converting thi…
The Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey: Constraints on the Lyman Continuum Escape Fraction Distribution of Lyman--Break Galaxies at 3.4<z<4.5
E. Vanzella, M. Giavalisco, A. Inoue +13
We use ultra-deep ultraviolet VLT/VIMOS intermediate-band and VLT/FORS1 narrow-band imaging in the GOODS Southern field to derive limits on the distribution of the escape fraction…
The effect of thermally pulsating asymptotic giant branch stars on the evolution of the rest-frame near-infrared galaxy luminosity function
Bruno Henriques, Claudia Maraston, Pierluigi Monaco +4
We address the fundamental question of matching the rest-frame K-band luminosity function (LF) of galaxies over the Hubble time using semi-analytic models, after modification of th…
A decline and fall in the future of Italian Astronomy?
Angelo Antonelli, Vincenzo Antonuccio-Delogu, Andrea Baruffolo +89
On May 27th 2010, the Italian astronomical community learned with concern that the National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) was going to be suppressed, and that its employees wer…
The dependence of AGN activity on stellar and halo mass in Semi-Analytic Models
Fabio Fontanot, Anna Pasquali, Gabriella De Lucia +3
AGN feedback is believed to play an important role in shaping a variety of observed galaxy properties, as well as the evolution of their stellar masses and star formation rates. In…
A semi-analytic model comparison - gas cooling and galaxy mergers
Gabriella De Lucia, Michael Boylan-Kolchin, Andrew J. Benson +2
We use stripped-down versions of three semi-analytic galaxy formation models to study the influence of different assumptions about gas cooling and galaxy mergers. By running the th…
Are Brightest Halo Galaxies Central Galaxies?
Ramin A. Skibba, Frank C. van den Bosch, Xiaohu Yang +3
It is generally assumed that the central galaxy in a dark matter halo, that is, the galaxy with the lowest specific potential energy, is also the brightest halo galaxy (BHG), and t…
