Building Merger Trees from Cosmological N-body Simulations
D. Tweed, J. Devriendt, J. Blaizot +2
Although a fair amount of work has been devoted to growing Monte-Carlo merger trees which resemble those built from an N-body simulation, comparatively little effort has been inves…
Cooling, Gravity and Geometry: Flow-driven Massive Core Formation
Fabian Heitsch, Lee Hartmann, Adrianne D. Slyz +2
We study numerically the formation of molecular clouds in large-scale colliding flows including self-gravity. The models emphasize the competition between the effects of gravity on…
Cloud Dispersal in Turbulent Flows
F. Heitsch, A. D. Slyz, J. E. G. Devriendt +1
Cold clouds embedded in warm media are very common objects in astrophysics. Their disruption timescale depends strongly on the dynamical configuration. We discuss the evolution of…
Accretion, feedback and galaxy bimodality: a comparison of the GalICS semi-analytic model and cosmological SPH simulations
Andrea Cattaneo, Jeremy Blaizot, David H. Weinberg +6
We compare the galaxy population of an SPH simulation to those predicted by the GalICS semi-analytic model and a stripped down version without supernova and AGN feedback. The SPH s…
The Birth of Molecular Clouds: Formation of Atomic Precursors in Colliding Flows
F. Heitsch, A. D. Slyz, J. E. G. Devriendt +2
Molecular Cloud Complexes (MCCs) are highly structured and ``turbulent''. Observational evidence suggests that MCCs are dynamically dominated systems, rather than quasi-equilibrium…
GalICS V : Low and high order clustering in mock SDSS's
J. Blaizot, I. Szapudi, S. Colombi +6
[Abridged] We use mock catalogues based on the GALICS model (Hatton et al. 03) to explore the nature of galaxy clustering observed in the SDSS. We measure low and high order angula…
