Avoiding progenitor bias: The structural and mass evolution of Brightest Group and Cluster Galaxies in Hierarchical models since z~1
Francesco Shankar, Stewart Buchan, Alessandro Rettura +10
The mass and structural evolution of massive galaxies is one of the hottest topics in galaxy formation. This is because it may reveal invaluable insights into the still debated evo…
The Morphological Transformation of Red-Sequence Galaxies in the Distant Cluster XMMU J1229+0151
P. Cerulo, W. J. Couch, C. Lidman +5
We present the results of a detailed analysis of galaxy properties along the red sequence in XMMU J1229+0151, an X-ray selected cluster at drawn from the HAWK-I Cluster Su…
Environmental dependence of bulge-dominated galaxy sizes in hierarchical models of galaxy formation. Comparison with the local Universe
Francesco Shankar, Simona Mei, Marc Huertas-Company +9
We compare state-of-the-art semi-analytic models of galaxy formation as well as advanced sub-halo abundance matching models with a large sample of early-type galaxies from SDSS at…
Larger sizes of massive quiescent early-type galaxies in clusters than in the field at 0.8 < z < 1.5
L. Delaye, M. Huertas-Company, S. Mei +13
[abridged] The mass-size relation of early-type galaxies (ETGs) has been largely studied in the last years to probe the mass assembly of the most massive objects in the Universe. I…
The importance of major mergers in the build up of stellar mass in brightest cluster galaxies at z=1
C. Lidman, G. Iacobuta, A. E. Bauer +22
Recent independent results from numerical simulations and observations have shown that brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) have increased their stellar mass by a factor of almost two…
