The halo merger rate in the Millennium Simulation and implications for observed galaxy merger fractions
S. Genel, R. Genzel, N. Bouché +2
We developed a new method to extract halo merger rates from the Millennium Simulation. First, by removing superfluous mergers that are artifacts of the FOF halo finder, we find a l…
Mergers and Mass Accretion Rates in Galaxy Assembly: The Millennium Simulation Compared to Observations of z~2 Galaxies
S. Genel, R. Genzel, N. Bouché +10
Recent observations of UV-/optically selected, massive star forming galaxies at z~2 indicate that the baryonic mass assembly and star formation history is dominated by continuous r…
Submillimeter Galaxies at z~2: Evidence for Major Mergers & Constraints on Lifetimes, IMF and CO-H2 Conversion Factor
L. J. Tacconi, R. Genzel, I. Smail +17
We report sub-arcsecond resolution IRAM PdBI millimeter CO interferometry of four z~2 submillimeter galaxies (SMGs), and sensitive CO (3-2) flux limits toward three z~2 UV-/optical…
Silicate emissions in active galaxies - From LINERs to QSOs
E. Sturm, M. Schweitzer, D. Lutz +12
We report the first detection of ~10 and ~18 micron silicate dust emissions in a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (AGN), obtained in Spitzer-IRS 7-37 micron spectroscopy of t…
Near infrared imaging spectroscopy of NGC1275
Alfred Krabbe, Bruce J. Sams, Reinhard Genzel +2
We present H and K band imaging spectroscopy of the core regions of the cD/AGN galaxy NGC1275. The spectra, including lines from H2, H, 12CO bandheads, [FeII], and [FeIII], are exp…
The Sgr A* Stellar Cluster: New NIR Imaging and Spectroscopy
Andreas Eckart, Thomas Ott, Reinhard Genzel
We report preliminary results based on new near-infrared observations of the central stellar cluster of our Galaxy conducted with the infrared spectrometer ISAAC at the ESO VLT UT1…
