Star Formation and Quenching of Satellite Galaxies

Zhankui Lu, H. J. Mo

We study the quenching of satellite galaxies by gradual depletion of gas due to star formation, by ram-pressure striping and by tidally triggered starburst. Using progenitors const…

Gas and Metal Contents of Galaxies and Gaseous Halos: Preventive versus Ejective Feedback

Yu Lu, H. J. Mo, Zhankui Lu

Using a semi-analytical approach we investigate the characteristics of predictions for the masses and metallicities of the baryonic matter in and around galaxies made by three gala…

Galaxy Ecosystems: gas contents, inflows and outflows

Zhankui Lu, H. J. Mo, Yu Lu

We use a set of observational data for galaxy cold gas mass fraction and gas phase metallicity to constrain the content, inflow and outflow of gas in central galaxies hosted by hal…

Classical bulges, supermassive blackholes and AGN feedback: Extension to low-mass galaxies

Zhankui Lu, H. J. Mo

The empirical model of Lu et al. 2014a for the relation between star formation rate and halo mass growth is adopted to predict the classical bulge mass () - total stell…

Star Formation and Stellar Mass Assembly in Dark Matter Halos: From Giants to Dwarfs

Zhankui Lu, H. J. Mo, Yu Lu +4

The empirical model of Lu et al. 2014 is updated with recent data and used to study galaxy star formation and assembly histories. At , the predicted galaxy stellar mass func…

Bayesian inferences of galaxy formation from the K-band luminosity and HI mass functions of galaxies: constraining star formation and feedback

Yu Lu, H. J. Mo, Zhankui Lu +2

We infer mechanisms of galaxy formation for a broad family of semi-analytic models (SAMs) constrained by the K-band luminosity function and HI mass function of local galaxies using…

An Empirical Model for the Star Formation History in Dark Matter Halos

Zhankui Lu, Houjun Mo, Yu Lu +4

We develop an empirical approach to infer the star formation rate in dark matter halos from the galaxy stellar mass function (SMF) at different redshifts and the local cluster gala…

Constraining the Star Formation Histories in Dark Matter Halos: I. Central Galaxies

Xiaohu Yang, H. J. Mo, Frank C. van den Bosch +5

Using the self-consistent modeling of the conditional stellar mass functions across cosmic time by Yang et al. (2012), we make model predictions for the star formation histories (S…

Galactic Coronae in the Intracluster Environment: Semi-confined Stellar-feedback-driven Outflows

Zhankui Lu, Q. Daniel Wang

Recently X-ray observations have shown the common presence of compact galactic coronae around intermediate-mass spheroid galaxies embedded in the intracluster/intragroup medium (IC…
