Simulating multiple merger pathways to the central kinematics of early-type galaxies
Christopher E. Moody, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Thomas J. Cox +2
Two-dimensional integral field surveys such as ATLAS^3D are producing rich observational data sets yielding insights into galaxy formation. These new kinematic observations have hi…
The Spatial Extent and Distribution of Star Formation in 3D-HST Mergers at z~1.5
Kasper B. Schmidt, Hans-Walter Rix, Elisabete da Cunha +14
We present an analysis of the spatial distribution of star formation in a sample of 60 visually identified galaxy merger candidates at z>1. Our sample, drawn from the 3D-HST survey…
Submillimetre galaxies in a hierarchical universe: number counts, redshift distribution, and implications for the IMF
Christopher C. Hayward, Desika Narayanan, Dušan Kereš +4
High-redshift submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) are some of the most rapidly star-forming galaxies in the Universe. Historically, galaxy formation models have had difficulty explaining…
Modeling Mid-Infrared Diagnostics of Obscured Quasars and Starbursts
Gregory F. Snyder, Christopher C. Hayward, Anna Sajina +5
We analyze the link between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and mid-infrared flux using dust radiative transfer calculations of starbursts realized in hydrodynamical simulations. Focu…
Star Formation in Galaxy Mergers with Realistic Models of Stellar Feedback & the Interstellar Medium
Philip F. Hopkins, Thomas J. Cox, Lars Hernquist +3
We use simulations with realistic models for stellar feedback to study galaxy mergers. These high resolution (1 pc) simulations follow formation and destruction of individual GMCs…
The M31 Velocity Vector. III. Future Milky Way-M31-M33 Orbital Evolution, Merging, and Fate of the Sun
Roeland P. van der Marel, Gurtina Besla, T. J. Cox +2
We study the future orbital evolution and merging of the MW-M31-M33 system, using a combination of collisionless N-body simulations and semi-analytic orbit integrations. Monte-Carl…
