Seeding the formation of cold gaseous clouds in Milky Way size halos
Dušan Kereš, Lars Hernquist
We use one of the highest resolution cosmological SPH simulations to date to demonstrate that cold gaseous clouds form around Milky Way size galaxies. We further explore mechanisms…
How do Galaxies Accrete Gas and Form Stars?
M. E. Putman, P. Henning, A. Bolatto +42
Great strides have been made in the last two decades in determining how galaxies evolve from their initial dark matter seeds to the complex structures we observe at z=0. The role o…
When Is Secular Evolution Important?
Philip F. Hopkins, Dusan Keres, Chung-Pei Ma +1
This abstract has been withdrawn. The proper replacement is arXiv:0909.3306
Rest-Frame Ultraviolet to Near Infrared Observations of an Interacting Lyman Break Galaxy at z = 4.42
Joshua D. Younger, Jia-Sheng Huang, Giovanni G. Fazio +11
We present the rest-frame ultraviolet through near infrared spectral energy distribution for an interacting Lyman break galaxy at a redshift z=4.42, the highest redshift merging sy…
A Cosmological Framework for the Co-Evolution of Quasars, Supermassive Black Holes, and Elliptical Galaxies: II. Formation of Red Ellipticals
Philip F. Hopkins, Thomas J. Cox, Dusan Keres +1
(Abridged) We develop and test a model for the cosmological role of mergers in the formation and quenching of red, early-type galaxies. Making the ansatz that star formation is que…
A Cosmological Framework for the Co-Evolution of Quasars, Supermassive Black Holes, and Elliptical Galaxies: I. Galaxy Mergers & Quasar Activity
Philip F. Hopkins, Lars Hernquist, Thomas J. Cox +1
(Abridged) We develop a model for the cosmological role of mergers in the evolution of starbursts, quasars, and spheroidal galaxies. Combining halo mass functions (MFs) with empiri…
