The effect of the environment on the evolution of galaxy colours [PDF]

, 2006
In chapter 1 of this thesis, I give a brief overview of the birth of modern cosmology and the growth of the current paradigm. I then go on to describe the different types of galaxies, the star formation rates within them and give some notes about galaxy ...

Evolution of Massive Red Galaxies in Clusters from z = 1.0 to z = 0.3

The Astronomical Journal
A critical issue in studying the evolution of galaxy clusters is to find ways that enable meaningful comparisons of clusters observed at different redshifts, as well as in various stages of their growth.

The elliptical galaxy colour-magnitude relation as a discriminant between the monolithic and merger paradigms [PDF]

, 2017
The colour-magnitude relation (CMR) of cluster elliptical galaxies has been widely used to constrain their star formation histories (SFHs) and to discriminate between the monolithic collapse and merger paradigms of elliptical galaxy formation. We use a Λ

Elliptical galaxies

, 1989
In this thesis, radial colour and line strength gradients are investigated, and corresponding stellar population gradients are modelled. Together with the gradients, the morphology of the galaxies in optical and near-infrared colours is analyzed. When investigated in detail, every elliptical galaxy has its own special morphology, but nevertheless the ...

HI in the Dusty Elliptical Galaxy NGC5266

, 1995
Recent observations with the Australia Telescope Compact Array show that the elliptical galaxy NGC 5266 has a disk of neutral hydrogen extending to almost 10Re.

Bright galaxy number counts [PDF]

, 1995
The value of a plot of galaxy number counts per unit area of sky against magnitude as a probe of the early universe is well known, being influenced by both the curvature of expanding space and the deceleration parameter.

Core Formation by Binary Scouring and Gravitational Wave Recoil in Massive Elliptical Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
Scouring by supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries is the most accepted mechanism for the formation of the cores seen in giant elliptical galaxies. However, an additional mechanism is required to explain the largest observed cores.

Galaxy evolution as a function of mass and environment: giant and dwarf galaxies in superclusters and in the field [PDF]

, 2008
It has been known for decades that local galaxies can be broadly divided into two distinct populations (e.g. Hubble 1926, 1936; Morgan 1958; de Vaucouleurs 1961).

Where Have All the Little Red Dots Gone? Supermassive Black Hole Binary Dynamics and Its Impact on Galaxy Properties

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent James Webb Space Telescope observations have revealed a peculiar class of galaxies at redshifts z  ≳ 6, characterized by extremely high central stellar densities and overmassive central supermassive black holes (SMBHs), “little red dots” (LRDs). A
