Reconciling a significant hierarchical assembly of massive early-type galaxies at z<~1 with mass downsizing

M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Mercedes Prieto, Jesus Gallego +1

Hierarchical models predict that massive early-type galaxies (mETGs) are the latest systems to be in place into the cosmic scenario (at z<~0.5), conflicting with the observational…

On the buildup of massive early-type galaxies at z<~1. II- The coordinated key role of wet, mixed, and dry major mergers

M. C. Eliche-Moral, M. Prieto, J. Gallego +1

Hierarchical models predict that present-day massive early-type galaxies (mETGs) have finished their assembly at a quite late cosmic epoch (z~0.5), conflicting directly with galaxy…

On the buildup of massive early-type galaxies at z<~1. I- Reconciling their hierarchical assembly with mass-downsizing

M. C. Eliche-Moral, M. Prieto, J. Gallego +6

Several studies have tried to ascertain whether or not the increase in abundance of the early-type galaxies (E-S0a's) with time is mainly due to major mergers, reaching opposite co…
