An extremely young massive clump forming by gravitational collapse in a primordial galaxy

A. Zanella, E. Daddi, E. Le Floc'h +9

When the cosmic star formation history peaks (z ~ 2), galaxies vigorously fed by cosmic reservoirs are gas dominated and contain massive star-forming clumps, thought to form by vio…

The incorrect rotation curve of the Milky Way

Laurent Chemin, Florent Renaud, Caroline Soubiran

In the fundamental quest of the rotation curve of the Milky Way, the tangent-point (TP) method has long been the simplest way to infer velocities for the inner, low latitude region…

The effect of secular galactic growth on the evolution of star clusters

Florent Renaud, Mark Gieles

The growth of galaxies through adiabatic accretion of dark matter is one of the main drivers of galaxy evolution. By isolating it from other processes like mergers, we analyse how…

A flexible method to evolve collisional systems and their tidal debris in external potentials

Florent Renaud, Mark Gieles

We introduce a numerical method to integrate tidal effects on collisional systems, using any definition of the external potential as a function of space and time. Rather than using…

Large and small-scale structures and the dust energy balance problem in spiral galaxies

W. Saftly, M. Baes, G. De Geyter +4

The interstellar dust content in galaxies can be traced in extinction at optical wavelengths, or in emission in the far-infrared. Several studies have found that radiative transfer…
