Stellar Ages and Metallicities of Central and Satellite Galaxies: Implications for Galaxy Formation and Evolution

Anna Pasquali, Anna Gallazzi, Fabio Fontanot +4

Using a large SDSS galaxy group catalogue, we study how the stellar ages and metallicities of central and satellite galaxies depend on stellar mass and halo mass. We find that sate…

On the Origin of the Galaxy Star-Formation-Rate Sequence: Evolution and Scatter

Aaron A. Dutton, Frank C. van den Bosch, Avishai Dekel

We use a semi-analytic model for disk galaxies to explore the origin of the time evolution and small scatter of the galaxy SFR sequence -- the tight correlation between star-format…

The Stellar Mass Components of Galaxies: Comparing Semi-Analytical Models with Observation

Lei Liu, Xiaohu Yang, H. J. Mo +2

We compare the stellar masses of central and satellite galaxies predicted by three independent semianalytical models with observational results obtained from a large galaxy group c…

The Substructure Hierarchy in Dark Matter Haloes

Carlo Giocoli, Giuseppe Tormen, Ravi K. Sheth +1

We present a new algorithm for identifying the substructure within simulated dark matter haloes. The method is an extension of that proposed by Tormen et al. (2004) and Giocoli et…

On the Size and Comoving Mass Density Evolution of Early-Type Galaxies

Arjen van der Wel, Eric F. Bell, Frank C. van den Bosch +2

We present a simple, empirically motivated model that simultaneously predicts the evolution of the mean size and the comoving mass density of massive early-type galaxies from z=2 t…
