A simple yet effective model of galaxy mergers
Cesare Chiosi, Mauro D'Onofrio, Emanuela Chiosi
In the context of the hierarchical formation of galaxies, we investigated the role played by mergers in shaping the scale relations of galaxies, that is the projections of their Fu…
The scaling relations of galaxies with different morphology: comparison among WINGS, MANGA and Illustris data samples
Mauro D'Onofrio, Francesco Brevi, Cesare Chiosi +1
We present a panoramic view of several scaling relations (ScRs) of galaxies of different morphology. The ScRs are obtained from the data of two large surveys (WINGS and MANGA). We…
The role of dry mergers in shaping the scaling relations of galaxies
Mauro D'Onofrio, Cesare Chiosi, Francesco Brevi
In the context of the hierarchical formation of galaxies, we investigated the role played by mergers in shaping the scaling relations of galaxies, that is the projections of their…
Galaxies' properties in the Fundamental Plane across time
Mauro D'Onofrio, Cesare Chiosi
Context: Using the Illustris-1 and IllustrisTNG-100 simulations we investigate the properties of the Fundamental Plane (FP), that is the correlation between the effective radius Re…
The scaling relations of galaxies back in time: the road toward virialization
Mauro D'Onofrio, Cesare Chiosi
Context. The structural scaling relations (SSRs) of galaxies, i.e. the observed correlations between effective radius, effective surface intensity and velocity dispersion, are impo…
A new framework for understanding the evolution of early-type galaxies
Mauro D'Onofrio, Cesare Chiosi
We have recently suggested that the combination of the scalar virial theorem () and the law, with L'_0 and changing from galaxy to galaxy (and…
