Journal of Astronomical Telescopes, Instruments, and Systems, 2021 The Galaxy Evolution Probe (GEP) is a concept for a mid- and far-infrared space observatory to measure key properties of large samples of galaxies with large and unbiased surveys. GEP will attempt to achieve zodiacal light and Galactic dust emission photon background-limited observations by utilizing a 6-K, 2.0-m primary mirror and sensitive arrays of ...

Secular evolution in galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985 We have adapted the N-body code of Van Albada (1982) to study the secular evolution of a hot collisionless stellar component (E galaxy or galactic bulge) due to slow changes in another component of the same galaxy. Our equilibrium starting model is a non-rotating triaxial ellipsoid with axial ratios 1.3:1.4:2.0; the effects of the “other component” are

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Keystones of galaxy evolution [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1994 Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are the most insignificant extragalactic stellar systems in terms of their visibility, but potentially very significant in terms of their role in the formation and evolution of much more luminous galaxies. We discuss the present observational data and their implications for theories of the formation and evolution of both dwarf

Cosmological evolution and hierarchical galaxy formation [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1999 We provide a new multi-waveband compilation of the data describing the cosmological evolution of quasars, and discuss a model that attributes the evolution to variation in the rate of merging between dark halos in a hierarchical universe. We present a new Press-Schechter calculation of the expected merger rate and show that this can reproduce the ...

AGN EVOLUTION FROM A GALAXY EVOLUTION VIEWPOINT [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 We explore the connections between the evolving galaxy and AGN populations. We present a simple phenomenological model that links the evolving galaxy mass function and the evolving quasar luminosity function, which makes specific and testable predictions for the distribution of host galaxy masses for AGN of different luminosities. We show that the $ ^{

Galaxy formation and evolution: low-surface-brightness galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998 We investigate in detail the hypothesis that low surface brightness galaxies (LSB) differ from ordinary galaxies simply because they form in halos with large spin parameters. We compute star formation rates using the Schmidt law, assuming the same gas infall dependence on surface density as used in models of the Milky Way.
