The ATLAS3D project - XXII. Low-efficiency star formation in early-type galaxies: hydrodynamic models and observations

Marie Martig, Alison F. Crocker, Frederic Bournaud +27

We study the global efficiency of star formation in high resolution hydrodynamical simulations of gas discs embedded in isolated early-type and spiral galaxies. Despite using a uni…

The properties of (sub)millimetre-selected galaxies as revealed by CANDELS HST WFC3/IR imaging in GOODS-South

T. A. Targett, J. S. Dunlop, M. Cirasuolo +16

We have exploited the HST CANDELS WFC3/IR imaging to study the properties of (sub-)mm galaxies in GOODS-South. After using the deep radio and Spitzer imaging to identify galaxy cou…

Baryons Matter: Why Luminous Satellite Galaxies Have Reduced Central Masses

Adi Zolotov, Alyson M. Brooks, Beth Willman +7

Using high resolution cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of Milky Way-massed disk galaxies, we demonstrate that supernovae feedback and tidal stripping lower the central masse…

CANDELS: The progenitors of compact quiescent galaxies at z~2

Guillermo Barro, S. M. Faber, Pablo G. Perez-Gonzalez +29

We combine high-resolution HST/WFC3 images with multi-wavelength photometry to track the evolution of structure and activity of massive (log(M*) > 10) galaxies at redshifts z = 1.4…

The Morphologies of Massive Galaxies at 1<z<3 in the CANDELS-UDS Field: Compact Bulges, and the Rise and Fall of Massive Disks

V. A. Bruce, J. S. Dunlop, M. Cirasuolo +16

We have used deep, HST, near-IR imaging to study the morphological properties of the most massive galaxies at high z, modelling the WFC3/IR H-band images of the ~200 galaxies in th…

Detectability of cold streams into high-redshift galaxies by absorption lines

Tobias Goerdt, Avishai Dekel, Amiel Sternberg +2

Cold gas streaming along the dark-matter filaments of the cosmic web is predicted to be the major provider of resources for disc buildup, violent disk instability and star formatio…

CANDELS: Correlations of SEDs and Morphologies with Star-formation Status for Massive Galaxies at z ~ 2

Tao Wang, Jia-Sheng Huang, S. M. Faber +17

We present a study on Spectral Energy Distributions, Morphologies, and star formation for an IRAC-selected extremely red object sample in the GOODS Chandra Deep Field-South. This w…

On Combining Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing to Unveil Galaxy Biasing via the Halo Model

Marcello Cacciato, Ofer Lahav, Frank C. van den Bosch +2

We formulate the concept of non-linear and stochastic galaxy biasing in the framework of halo occupation statistics. Using two-point statistics in projection, we define the galaxy…

Smooth(er) Stellar Mass Maps in CANDELS: Constraints on the Longevity of Clumps in High-redshift Star-forming Galaxies

Stijn Wuyts, Natascha M. Forster Schreiber, Reinhard Genzel +22

We perform a detailed analysis of the resolved colors and stellar populations of a complete sample of 323 star-forming galaxies at 0.5 < z < 1.5, and 326 star-forming galaxies at 1…

Dependence of Galaxy Quenching on Halo Mass and Distance from its Centre

Joanna Woo, Avishai Dekel, S. M. Faber +12

We study the dependence of star-formation quenching on galaxy mass and environment, in the SDSS (z~0.1) and the AEGIS (z~1). It is crucial that we define quenching by low star-form…

On the effect of cosmological inflow on turbulence and instability in galactic discs

Shy Genel, Avishai Dekel, Marcello Cacciato

We analyse the evolution of turbulence and gravitational instability of a galactic disc in a quasi-steady state governed by cosmological inflow. We focus on the possibility that th…

A diversity of progenitors and histories for isolated spiral galaxies

Marie Martig, Frederic Bournaud, Darren J. Croton +2

We analyze a suite of 33 cosmological simulations of the evolution of Milky Way-mass galaxies in low-density environments. Our sample spans a broad range of Hubble types at z=0, fr…
