Constraints on the Evolution of the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function I: Role of Star Formation, Mergers and Stellar Stripping

E. Contini, X. Kang, A. D. Romeo +1

We study the connection between the observed star formation rate-stellar mass (SFR-$M_{\ast }$) relation and the evolution of the stellar mass function (SMF) by means of a Subhalo Abunda…
