The Epoch of Disk Settling: z~1 to Now
Susan A. Kassin, Benjamin J. Weiner, S. M. Faber +11
We present evidence from a sample of 544 galaxies from the DEEP2 Survey for evolution of the internal kinematics of blue galaxies with stellar masses ranging 8.0 < log M* (M_Sun) <…
CANDELS: The progenitors of compact quiescent galaxies at z~2
Guillermo Barro, S. M. Faber, Pablo G. Perez-Gonzalez +29
We combine high-resolution HST/WFC3 images with multi-wavelength photometry to track the evolution of structure and activity of massive (log(M*) > 10) galaxies at redshifts z = 1.4…
On Galaxies and Homology
Gregory S. Novak, Patrik Jonsson, Joel R. Primack +2
The definition of homology for single-component galaxies is clear, but for multi-component (luminous and dark matter) galaxies there is some ambiguity. We attempt to clarify the si…
The Radius of Baryonic Collapse in Disc Galaxy Formation
Susan A. Kassin, Julien Devriendt, S. Michael Fall +3
In the standard picture of disc galaxy formation, baryons and dark matter receive the same tidal torques, and therefore approximately the same initial specific angular momentum. Ho…
The Effect of Major Mergers on Age and Metallicity Across the Fundamental Plane
L. A. Porter, R. S. Somerville, D. J. Croton +4
Recent low-redshift observations have attempted to determine the star formation histories of elliptical galaxies by tracking correlations between the stellar population parameters…
IACT observations of gamma-ray bursts: prospects for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Rudy C. Gilmore, Aurelien Bouvier, Valerie Connaughton +4
Gamma rays at rest frame energies as high as 90 GeV have been reported from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). There is considerable hope that a confi…
