The Origin of the Dust Extinction Curve in Milky Way-like Galaxies

Qi Li, Desika Narayanan, Paul Torrey +2

We develop a cosmological model for the evolution of dust grains in galaxies with a distribution of sizes in order to understand the origin of the Milky Way dust extinction curve.…

The specific star formation rate function at different mass scales and quenching: A comparison between cosmological models and SDSS

Antonios Katsianis, Haojie Xu, Xiaohu Yang +6

We present the eddington bias corrected Specific Star Formation Rate Function (sSFRF) at different stellar mass scales from a sub-sample of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Releas…

IQ Collaboratory II: The Quiescent Fraction of Isolated, Low Mass Galaxies Across Simulations and Observations

Claire M Dickey, Tjitske K Starkenburg, Marla Geha +10

We compare three major large-scale hydrodynamical galaxy simulations (EAGLE, Illustris-TNG, and SIMBA) by forward modeling simulated galaxies into observational space and computing…

The Diversity and Variability of Star Formation Histories in Models of Galaxy Evolution

Kartheik G. Iyer, Sandro Tacchella, Shy Genel +10

Understanding the variability of galaxy star formation histories (SFHs) across a range of timescales provides insight into the underlying physical processes that regulate star form…

Reproducing sub-millimetre galaxy number counts with cosmological hydrodynamic simulations

Christopher C. Lovell, James E. Geach, Romeel Davé +2

Matching the number counts of high- sub-millimetre-selected galaxies (SMGs) has been a long standing problem for galaxy formation models. In this paper, we use 3D dust radiative…

How Well Can We Measure the Stellar Mass of a Galaxy: The Impact of the Assumed Star Formation History Model in SED Fitting

Sidney Lower, Desika Narayanan, Joel Leja +3

The primary method for inferring the stellar mass () of a galaxy is through spectral energy distribution (SED) modeling. However, the technique rests on assumptions such as th…
