The Atlas3D Project -- XI. Dense molecular gas properties of CO-luminous early-type galaxies

Alison Crocker, Melanie Krips, Martin Bureau +24

Surveying eighteen 12CO-bright galaxies from the ATLAS3D early-type galaxy sample with the Institut de Radio Astronomie Millimétrique (IRAM) 30m telescope, we detect 13CO(1-0) and…

The Atlas3D project -- XIII. Mass and morphology of HI in early-type galaxies as a function of environment

Paolo Serra, Tom Oosterloo, Raffaella Morganti +23

We present the Atlas3D HI survey of 166 nearby early-type galaxies (ETGs) down to M(HI)~10^7 M_sun. We detect HI in ~40% of all ETGs outside the Virgo cluster and in ~10% of all ET…

The effects of a hot gaseous halo on disc thickening in galaxy minor mergers

Benjamin P. Moster, Andrea V. Maccio', Rachel S. Somerville +2

We employ hydrodynamical simulations to study the effects of dissipational gas physics on the vertical heating and thickening of disc galaxies during minor mergers. For the first t…

The ATLAS3D Project-- VIII: Modelling the Formation and Evolution of Fast and Slow Rotator Early-Type Galaxies within CDM

Sadegh Khochfar, Eric Emsellem, Paolo Serra +22

We propose a simple model for the origin of fast and slow rotator early-type galaxies (ETG) within the hierarchical CDM scenario, that is based on the assumption that the mass f…

The Atlas3D project - X. On the origin of the molecular and ionised gas in early-type galaxies

Timothy A. Davis, Katherine Alatalo, Marc Sarzi +22

We make use of interferometric CO and HI observations, and optical integral-field spectroscopy to probe the origin of the molecular and ionised interstellar medium (ISM) in local e…

The Effects of X-Ray Feedback from AGN on Host Galaxy Evolution

D. Clay Hambrick, Jeremiah P. Ostriker, Thorsten Naab +1

Hydrodynamic simulations of galaxies with active galactic nuclei (AGN) have typically employed feedback that is purely local: i.e., an injection of energy to the immediate neighbor…
