A two-phase model of galaxy formation: II. The size-mass relation of dynamically hot galaxies
Yangyao Chen, Houjun Mo, Huiyuan Wang
In Paper-I we developed a two-phase model to connect dynamically hot galaxies (such as ellipticals and bulges) with the formation of self-gravitating gas clouds (SGCs) associated w…

A two-phase model of galaxy formation: I. The growth of galaxies and supermassive black holes
Houjun Mo, Yangyao Chen, Huiyuan Wang
We develop a model for galaxy formation and the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs), based on the fact that cold dark matter (CDM) halos form their gravitational potential w…

Characterizing the assembly of dark matter halos with protohalo size histories: I. Redshift evolution, relation to descendant halos, and halo assembly bias
Kai Wang, H. J. Mo, Yangyao Chen +5
We propose a novel method to quantify the assembly histories of dark matter halos with the redshift evolution of the mass-weighted spatial variance of their progenitor halos, i.e.…
