The Impact of Outflows driven by Active Galactic Nuclei on Metals in and around Galaxies

Ena Choi, Ryan Brennan, Rachel S. Somerville +3

Metals in the hot gaseous halos of galaxies encode the history of star formation as well as the feedback processes that eject metals from the galaxies. X-ray observations suggest t…

Momentum-driven Winds from Radiatively Efficient Black Hole Accretion and Their Impact on Galaxies

Ryan Brennan, Ena Choi, Rachel S. Somerville +3

We explore the effect of momentum-driven winds representing radiation pressure driven outflows from accretion onto supermassive black holes in a set of numerical hydrodynamical sim…

Major Merging History in CANDELS. I. Evolution of the Incidence of Massive Galaxy-Galaxy Pairs from z=3 to z~0

Kameswara Bharadwaj Mantha, Daniel H. McIntosh, Ryan Brennan +37

The rate of major galaxy-galaxy merging is theoretically predicted to steadily increase with redshift during the peak epoch of massive galaxy development (). We us…

The Nature of Massive Transition Galaxies in CANDELS, GAMA, and Cosmological Simulations

Viraj Pandya, Ryan Brennan, Rachel S. Somerville +25

We explore observational and theoretical constraints on how galaxies might transition between the "star-forming main sequence" (SFMS) and varying "degrees of quiescence" out to $z=…

The Relationship Between Star-formation Activity and Galaxy Structural Properties in CANDELS and a Semi-analytic Model

Ryan Brennan, Viraj Pandya, Rachel S. Somerville +13

We study the correlation of galaxy structural properties with their location relative to the SFR-M* correlation, also known as the star formation "main sequence" (SFMS), in the CAN…

Quenching and Morphological Transformation in Semi-Analytic Models and CANDELS

Ryan Brennan, Viraj Pandya, Rachel S. Somerville +9

We examine the spheroid growth and star formation quenching experienced by galaxies from z~3 to the present by studying the evolution with redshift of the quiescent and spheroid-do…

A half-step in quantized conductance for low-density electrons in a quantum wire

Godfrey Gumbs, Antonios Balassis, Danhong Huang +2

We investigated the effect due to perpendicular magnetic field on quantum wires where spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of electrons is not neglected. Based on the calculated energy dis…
