Introduction to Galaxy Formation and Evolution. From Primordial Gas to Present-Day Galaxies
Andrea Cimatti, Filippo Fraternali, Carlo Nipoti
Present-day elliptical, spiral and irregular galaxies are large systems made of stars, gas and dark matter. Their properties result from a variety of physical processes that have o…
The volumetric star formation law in the Milky Way
C. Bacchini, F. Fraternali, G. Pezzulli +3
Several open questions on galaxy formation and evolution have their roots in the lack of a universal star formation law, that could univocally link the gas properties, e.g. its den…
Baryon dominated ultra-diffuse galaxies
Pavel E. Mancera Piña, Filippo Fraternali, Elizabeth A. K. Adams +1
By means of interferometic 21-cm observations and a 3D kinematic modeling technique, we study the gas kinematics of six HI-rich ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). We derive robust circ…
HALOGAS: the properties of extraplanar HI in disc galaxies
A. Marasco, F. Fraternali, G. Heald +9
We present a systematic study of the extraplanar gas (EPG) in a sample of 15 nearby late-type galaxies at intermediate inclinations using publicly available, deep interferometric H…
Off the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation: a population of baryon-dominated ultra-diffuse galaxies
Pavel E. Mancera Piña, Filippo Fraternali, Elizabeth A. K. Adams +17
We study the gas kinematics traced by the 21-cm emission of a sample of six HIrich low surface brightness galaxies classified as ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). Using the 3D kine…
Galaxy disc scaling relations: A tight linear galaxy -- halo connection challenges abundance matching
Lorenzo Posti, Antonino Marasco, Filippo Fraternali +1
In CDM cosmology, to first order, galaxies form out of the cooling of baryons within the virial radius of their dark matter halo. The fractions of mass and angular momentum reta…
