The Connection between Dusty Star-Forming Galaxies and the First Massive Quenched Galaxies

Pablo Araya-Araya, Rachel K. Cochrane, Laerte Sodré +6

High-redshift (z > 2) massive quiescent (MQ) galaxies provide an opportunity to probe the key physical processes driving the fuelling and quenching of star formation in the early U…

Diverse dark matter profiles in FIRE dwarfs: black holes, cosmic rays and the cusp-core enigma

Sophie Koudmani, Douglas Rennehan, Rachel S. Somerville +5

Dwarf galaxies have historically posed challenges to the cold dark matter (CDM) model and, while many of the so-called 'dwarf galaxy problems' have been mitigated by incorporating…

Simultaneously Modelling Dusty Star Forming Galaxies and Massive Quiescents: A Calibration Framework for Galaxy Formation Models

Pablo Araya-Araya, Rachel K. Cochrane, Christopher C. Hayward +4

Galaxy formation models, particularly semi-analytic models (SAMs), rely on differential equations with free parameters to describe the physical mechanisms governing galaxy formatio…

Learning the Universe: physically-motivated priors for dust attenuation curves

Laura Sommovigo, Rachel K. Cochrane, Rachel S. Somerville +9

Understanding the impact of dust on the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of galaxies is crucial for inferring their physical properties and for studying the nature of interstel…

Modelling the multi-wavelength detection of protoclusters. I: An excess of submillimetre galaxies in protocluster cores

Pablo Araya-Araya, Rachel K. Cochrane, Christopher C. Hayward +6

Studies of galaxy protoclusters yield insights into galaxy cluster formation complementary to those obtained via `archaeological' studies of present-day galaxy clusters. Submillime…

Hooks, Lines, and Sinkers: How AGN Feedback and Cosmic-Ray Transport shape the Far Infrared-Radio Correlation of Galaxies

Sam B. Ponnada, Rachel K. Cochrane, Philip F. Hopkins +7

The far-infrared (FIR) - radio correlation (FRC) is one of the most promising empirical constraints on the role of cosmic-rays (CRs) and magnetic fields (\textbf{B}) in galaxy form…
