The Mass Dependence of the Fundamental Metallicity Relation in Observations and Simulations

Laura Carnevale, Alex M. Garcia, Paul Torrey +8

The metal content of galaxies provides direct insight into the underlying physical processes that drive galaxy evolution. An example of this is the three-parameter relationship bet…

The effect of galaxy interactions on star formation rates in the COLIBRE simulations

Quinten W. E. van Zegveld, Evgenii Chaikin, Joop Schaye +8

Observations and theory indicate that galaxy interactions enhance star formation rates (SFRs). However, the degree of enhancement and its dependence on the properties of the intera…

Merger Driven or Internal Evolution? A New Morphological Study of Tidal Disruption Event Host Galaxies

Janet N. Y. Chang, Connor Bottrell, Lixin Dai +7

The host galaxies of tidal disruption events (TDEs) show enhanced central stellar concentration and are preferentially found in poststarburst and green valley populations. This con…

Galaxy evolution in the post-merger regime. IV -- The long-term effect of mergers on galactic stellar mass growth and distribution

Sara L. Ellison, Leonardo Ferreira

Galaxy mergers are known to trigger bursts of central star formation, which should therefore lead to stellar mass growth in their inner regions. However, observational measurements…

Galaxy Mergers in UNIONS -- II: Predicting Timescales in the Post-Merger Regime

Leonardo Ferreira, Sara L. Ellison, David R. Patton +3

Galaxy mergers are critical events that influence galaxy evolution by driving processes such as enhanced star formation, quenching, and active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity. Howe…

Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations - IX: Mini mergers trigger AGN in cosmological simulations

Shoshannah Byrne-Mamahit, Sara L. Ellison, David R. Patton +3

Galaxy mergers are transformative events that can cause gaseous inflows capable of triggering active galactic nuclei (AGN). Previous studies of AGN in simulations have mainly focus…
