Gas Rich Mergers in Disk Formation
Chris B. Brook, Vincent Veilleux, Daisuke Kawata +2
In order to explain disk galaxy formation within the hierarchical structure formation, it seems that gas rich mergers must play an important role. We review here our previous studi…
The Evolving Structure of Galactic Disks
Hugo Martel, Chris Brook, Sean McGee +2
Observations suggest that the structural parameters of disk galaxies have not changed greatly since redshift 1. We examine whether these observations are consistent with a cosmolog…
On the origin of anomalous velocity clouds in the Milky Way
Tim W. Connors, Daisuke Kawata, Jeremy Bailin +2
We report that neutral hydrogen (HI) gas clouds, resembling High Velocity Clouds (HVCs) observed in the Milky Way (MW), appear in MW-sized disk galaxies formed in high-resolution L…
Disk evolution since z=1 in a CDM Universe
C. B. Brook, D. Kawata, H. Martel +2
Increasingly large populations of disk galaxies are now being observed at increasingly high redshifts, providing new constraints on our knowledge of how such galaxies evolve. Are t…
N-body simulations of the Magellanic Stream
Tim W. Connors, Daisuke Kawata, Brad K. Gibson
A suite of high-resolution N-body simulations of the Magellanic Clouds -- Milky Way system are presented and compared directly with newly available data from the HI Parkes All-Sky…
The Stellar Halo Metallicity - Luminosity Relationship for Spiral Galaxies
Agostino Renda, Brad K. Gibson, Mustapha Mouhcine +4
The stellar halos of spiral galaxies bear important chemo-dynamical signatures of galaxy formation. We present here the analysis of 89 semi-cosmological spiral galaxy simulations,…
