The Major and Minor Galaxy Merger Rates at z < 1.5
Jennifer M. Lotz, Patrik Jonsson, T. J. Cox +4
Calculating the galaxy merger rate requires both a census of galaxies identified as merger candidates, and a cosmologically-averaged `observability' timescale T_obs(z) for identify…
Simulations of the Magellanic Stream in a First Infall Scenario
Gurtina Besla, Nitya Kallivayalil, Lars Hernquist +3
Recent high precision proper motions from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) suggest that the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC, respectively) are either on their first…
Discriminating Between the Physical Processes that Drive Spheroid Size Evolution
Philip F. Hopkins, Kevin Bundy, Lars Hernquist +2
Massive galaxies at high-z have smaller effective radii than those today, but similar central densities. Their size growth therefore relates primarily to the evolving abundance of…
High-Resolution Panchromatic Spectral Models of Galaxies including Photoionisation and Dust
Patrik Jonsson, Brent Groves, T. J. Cox
An updated version of the dust radiation transfer code Sunrise, including models for star-forming regions and a self-consistent calculation of the spatially dependent dust and PAH…
Predicting the Properties of the Remnants of Dissipative Galaxy Mergers
M. Covington, A. Dekel, T. J. Cox +2
We construct a physically motivated model for predicting the properties of the remnants of gaseous galaxy mergers, given the properties of the progenitors and the orbit. The model…
The Collision Between The Milky Way And Andromeda
T. J. Cox, Abraham Loeb
We use a N--body/hydrodynamic simulation to forecast the future encounter between the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxies, given current observational constraints on their relativ…
