Star Formation in High-Redshift Cluster Ellipticals
Cory R. Wagner, Mark Brodwin, Gregory F. Snyder +11
We measure the star formation rates (SFRs) of massive () early-type galaxies (ETGs) in a sample of 11 high-redshift () galaxy clusters…
Modeling the Initial Conditions of Interacting Galaxy Pairs Using Identikit
S. Alireza Mortazavi, Jennifer M. Lotz, Joshua E. Barnes +1
We develop and test an automated technique to model the dynamics of interacting galaxy pairs. We use Identikit (Barnes & Hibbard 2009, Barnes 2011) as a tool for modeling and match…
Synthetic Galaxy Images and Spectra from the Illustris Simulation
Paul Torrey, Gregory F. Snyder, Mark Vogelsberger +10
We present our methods for generating a catalog of 7,000 synthetic images and 40,000 integrated spectra of redshift z = 0 galaxies from the Illustris Simulation. The mock data prod…
The Formation of Massive, Compact Galaxies at z=2 in the Illustris Simulation
Sarah Wellons, Paul Torrey, Chung-Pei Ma +13
Massive, quiescent galaxies at high redshift have been found to be considerably more compact than galaxies of similar mass in the local universe. How these compact galaxies formed…
Diverse Structural Evolution at z > 1 in Cosmologically Simulated Galaxies
Gregory F. Snyder, Jennifer Lotz, Christopher Moody +5
From mock Hubble Space Telescope images, we quantify non-parametric statistics of galaxy morphology, thereby predicting the emergence of relationships among stellar mass, star form…
The Illustris simulation: the evolving population of black holes across cosmic time
Debora Sijacki, Mark Vogelsberger, Shy Genel +5
We study the properties of black holes and their host galaxies across cosmic time in the Illustris simulation. Illustris is a large scale cosmological hydrodynamical simulation whi…
