Environmental dependence of bulge-dominated galaxy sizes in hierarchical models of galaxy formation. Comparison with the local Universe

Francesco Shankar, Simona Mei, Marc Huertas-Company +9

We compare state-of-the-art semi-analytic models of galaxy formation as well as advanced sub-halo abundance matching models with a large sample of early-type galaxies from SDSS at…

The Dynamics of Galaxy Pairs in a Cosmological Setting

Jorge Moreno, Asa F. L. Bluck, Sara L. Ellison +3

We use the Millennium Simulation, and an abundance-matching framework, to investigate the dynamical behaviour of galaxy pairs embedded in a cosmological context. Our main galaxy-pa…

Spatially unassociated galaxies contribute significantly to the blended submillimetre galaxy population: predictions for follow-up observations of ALMA sources

Christopher C. Hayward, Peter S. Behroozi, Rachel S. Somerville +3

There is anecdotal evidence that spatially and physically unassociated galaxies blended into a single submillimetre (submm) source contribute to the submm galaxy (SMG) population.…

Halo Pairs in the Millennium Simulation: Love & Deception

Jorge Moreno

In this work I investigate the statistical properties of a huge catalog of closely interacting pairs of dark matter haloes, extracted from the Millennium Simulation database. Only…

The Cosmic Evolution of Halo Pairs: I. Global Trends

Jorge Moreno

Accumulating evidence suggests that galaxy interactions play an important role in shaping the properties of galaxies. For this reason, cosmological studies focused on the evolution…
