Mergers, AGN, and 'Normal' Galaxies: Contributions to the Distribution of Star Formation Rates and Infrared Luminosity Functions
Philip F. Hopkins, Joshua D. Younger, Christopher C. Hayward +2
We use a novel method to predict the contribution of normal star-forming galaxies, merger-induced bursts, and obscured AGN, to IR luminosity functions (LFs) and global SFR densitie…
A Physical Model for z~2 Dust Obscured Galaxies
Desika Narayanan, Arjun Dey, Christopher Hayward +8
We present a physical model for the origin of z~2 Dust-Obscured Galaxies (DOGs), a class of high-redshift ULIRGs selected at 24 micron which are particularly optically faint (24/R>…
The AzTEC/SMA Interferometric Imaging Survey of Submillimeter-Selected High-Redshift Galaxies
J. D. Younger, G. G. Fazio, J. -S. Huang +14
We present results from a continuing interferometric survey of high-redshift submillimeter galaxies with the Submillimeter Array, including high-resolution (beam size ~2 arcsec) im…
Mergers and Bulge Formation in Lambda-CDM: Which Mergers Matter?
Philip F. Hopkins, Kevin Bundy, Darren Croton +6
We use a suite of semi-empirical models to predict galaxy merger rates and contributions to bulge growth as functions of merger mass, redshift, and mass ratio. The models use empir…
The Star-Forming Molecular Gas in High Redshift Submillimeter Galaxies
Desika Narayanan, Thomas J. Cox, Christopher Hayward +2
We present a model for the CO molecular line emission from high redshift Submillimeter Galaxies (SMGs). By combining hydrodynamic simulations of gas rich galaxy mergers with the po…
IRS Spectroscopy and Multi-wavelength Study of Luminous Star-forming Galaxies at z~1.9
J. -S. Huang, S. M. Faber, E. Daddi +24
We analyze a sample of galaxies chosen to have F24>0.5 mJy and satisfy a certain IRAC color criterion. IRS spectra yield redshifts, spectral types, and PAH luminosities, to which w…
