The Redshift Evolution of Wet, Dry, and Mixed Galaxy Mergers from Close Galaxy Pairs in the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey
Lihwai Lin, David R. Patton, David C. Koo +11
We study the redshift evolution of galaxy pair fractions and merger rates for different types of galaxies using kinematic pairs selected from the DEEP2 Redshift Survey. By paramete…
Shapes of Stellar Systems and Dark Halos from Simulations of Galaxy Major Mergers
Gregory S. Novak, Thomas J. Cox, Joel R. Primack +2
Using a sample of 89 snapshots from 58 hydrodynamic binary galaxy major merger simulations, we find that stellar remnants are mostly oblate while dark matter halos are mostly prola…
On the Correlations of Massive Black Holes with their Host Galaxies
Gregory S. Novak, S. M. Faber, Avishai Dekel
We address the correlations of black hole (BH) mass with four different host-galaxy properties from eleven existing data sets. To guide theoretical understanding, we first try to q…
