The Journey to Dominance: How BCGs Evolve Differently from Other Massive Galaxies
Marcelo C. Vicentin, Michael A. Strauss, Laerte Sodré +3
We use the L-GALAXIES semi-analytic model to investigate the evolution of Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) found in clusters at . BCGs are typically located in the c…
The Connection between Dusty Star-Forming Galaxies and the First Massive Quenched Galaxies
Pablo Araya-Araya, Rachel K. Cochrane, Laerte Sodré +6
High-redshift (z > 2) massive quiescent (MQ) galaxies provide an opportunity to probe the key physical processes driving the fuelling and quenching of star formation in the early U…
Simultaneously Modelling Dusty Star Forming Galaxies and Massive Quiescents: A Calibration Framework for Galaxy Formation Models
Pablo Araya-Araya, Rachel K. Cochrane, Christopher C. Hayward +4
Galaxy formation models, particularly semi-analytic models (SAMs), rely on differential equations with free parameters to describe the physical mechanisms governing galaxy formatio…
Modelling the multi-wavelength detection of protoclusters. I: An excess of submillimetre galaxies in protocluster cores
Pablo Araya-Araya, Rachel K. Cochrane, Christopher C. Hayward +6
Studies of galaxy protoclusters yield insights into galaxy cluster formation complementary to those obtained via `archaeological' studies of present-day galaxy clusters. Submillime…
