The Morphological Evolution of Field Galaxies [PDF]

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1995
I review two observational programs which, together, promise to unravel the detailed astrophysical evolution of normal field galaxies over the last 5-7 Gyr. Systematic ground-based spectroscopy of faint galaxies have revealed an increasing faint end slope for the luminosity function with redshift.

Secular Evolution of Galaxy Morphologies [PDF]

, 1996
Today we have numerous evidences that spirals evolve dynamically through various secular or episodic processes, such as bar formation and destruction, bulge growth and mergers, sometimes over much shorter periods than the standard galaxy age of 10-15 Gyr.

The Thick Disk in the Galaxy NGC 4244 from S^4G Imaging [PDF]

, 2010
If thick disks are ubiquitous and a natural product of disk galaxy formation and/or evolution processes, all undisturbed galaxies that have evolved during a significant fraction of a Hubble time should have a thick disk. The late-type spiral galaxy NGC

Tidal Tails and Galaxy Evolution [PDF]

, 2000
We review recent results on the tidal structures of spiral galaxies. Topics included are general characteristics of tails; kinematics of tidal structures and dark haloes of host galaxies; frequency of tidal distortions at z~1.Comment: 5 pages ...

JWST Reveals a Population of Ultrared, Flattened Galaxies at 2 ≲ z ≲ 6 Previously Missed by HST

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
With just a month of data, JWST is already transforming our view of the universe, revealing and resolving starlight in unprecedented populations of galaxies.

Evolution of galaxies in clusters [PDF]

Proceedings of Baryons in Dark Matter Halos — PoS(BDMH2004), 2004
I summarize what is know about the evolution of galaxies in clusters from the observational point of view presenting results at high (z~1), intermediate (z~0.5) and low (z~0) redshifts. I comment on the comparison between observations and predictions of CDM models, highlighting the observational landmarks more relevant for this comparison, such as the ...

Galaxy-galaxy(-galaxy) lensing as a sensitive probe of galaxy evolution

, 2012
The gravitational lensing effect provides various ways to study the mass environment of galaxies. We investigate how galaxy-galaxy(-galaxy) lensing can be used to test models of galaxy formation and evolution.

Internal Secular Evolution in Disk Galaxies: The Growth of Pseudobulges

, 2007
Observational and theoretical evidence that internal, slow ("secular") evolution reshapes galaxy disks is reviewed in Kormendy & Kennicutt (2004, ARAA, 42, 603). This update has three aims.
