EVOLUTION OF THE STARS AND GAS IN GALAXIES. [PDF]
, 2022 Essentially everything of astronomical interest is either part of a galaxy, or from a galaxy, or otherwise relevant to the origin or evolution of galaxies. Diverse examples are that the isotropic composition of meteorites provides clues to the history of

De re metallica: the cosmic chemical evolution of galaxies [PDF]
The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2018 The evolution of the content of heavy elements in galaxies, the relative chemical abundances, their spatial distribution, and how these scale with various galactic properties, provide unique information on the galactic evolutionary processes across the ...

A systematic metallicity study of DustPedia galaxies reveals evolution in the dust-to-metal ratios [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 Observations of evolution in the dust-to-metal ratio allow us to constrain the dominant dust processing mechanisms. In this work, we present a study of the dust-to-metal and dust-to-gas ratios in a sub-sample of ~500 DustPedia galaxies.

Ionization state of inter-stellar medium in galaxies: evolution, SFR-M * -Z dependence, and ionizing photon escape [PDF]
, 2013 We present a systematic study for ionization state of inter-stellar medium in galaxies at z=0-3 with ~140,000 SDSS galaxies and 108 intermediate to high redshift galaxies from the literature, using an ionization-parameter sensitive line ratio of [OIII ...

Multiscale magnetic fields in spiral galaxies: evolution and reversals [PDF]
, 2011 Context. Magnetic fields in nearby, star-forming galaxies reveal large-scale patterns, as predicted by dynamo models, but also a variety of small-scale structures.

The orbital velocity anisotropy of cluster galaxies: evolution [PDF]
, 2009 Context. In nearby clusters early-type galaxies follow isotropic orbits. The orbits of late-type galaxies are instead characterized by slightly radial anisotropy.

The E-MOSAICS project: simulating the formation and co-evolution of galaxies and their star cluster populations [PDF]
, 2017 We introduce the MOdelling Star cluster population Assembly In Cosmological Simulations within EAGLE (E-MOSAICS) project. E-MOSAICS incorporates models describing the formation, evolution, and disruption of star clusters into the EAGLE galaxy formation ...

The size evolution of star-forming and quenched galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulation [PDF]
, 2017 We analyze scaling relations and evolution histories of galaxy sizes in TNG100, part of the IllustrisTNG simulation suite. Observational qualitative trends of size with stellar mass, star-formation rate and redshift are reproduced, and a quantitative ...

Ultra-diffuse galaxies outside clusters: clues to their formation and evolution [PDF]
, 2016 We identify six ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) outside clusters in three nearby isolated groups (z 250 kpc) of our three groups, we identify a population of potential UDG progenitors (two of them confirmed spectroscopically).
