A simple yet effective model of galaxy mergers
Cesare Chiosi, Mauro D'Onofrio, Emanuela Chiosi
In the context of the hierarchical formation of galaxies, we investigated the role played by mergers in shaping the scale relations of galaxies, that is the projections of their Fu…
On the pressure equilibrium and timescales in the scale free convection theory
Stefano Pasetto, Cesare Chiosi, Mark Cropper +2
Convection is one of the fundamental energy transport processes in physics and astrophysics, and its description is central to allstellar models. In the context of stellar astrophy…
Cosmic Star Formation: a simple model of the SFRD(z)
Cesare Chiosi, Mauro Sciarratta, Mauro D'Onofrio +4
We investigate the evolution of the cosmic star formation rate density (SFRD) from redshift z=20 to z=0 and compare it with the observational one by Madau and Dickinson derived fro…
CXO J004318.8+412016, a steady supersoft X-ray source in M 31
M. Orio, G. J. M. Luna, R. Kotulla +14
We obtained an optical spectrum of a star we identify as the optical counterpart of the M31 Chandra source CXO J004318.8+412016, because of prominent emission lines of the Balmer s…
On the origin of the Fundamental Plane and Faber-Jackson relations: consequences for the star formation problem
Mauro D'Onofrio, Stefano Cariddi, Cesare Chiosi +2
The aim of this work is to show that the origin of the Fundamental Plane (FP) relation for early-type galaxies (ETGs) can be traced back to the existence of a fine-tuning between t…
Theory of stellar convection II: first stellar models
S. Pasetto, C. Chiosi, E. Chiosi +2
We present here the first stellar models on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD), in which convection is treated according to the novel scale-free convection theory (SFC theory) b…
