Physics Reports, 2010 We review the current theory of how galaxies form within the cosmological framework provided by the cold dark matter paradigm for structure formation. Beginning with the pre-galactic evolution of baryonic material we describe the analytical and numerical

DLAs and Galaxy Formation [PDF]
Modern Physics Letters A, 2007 Damped Lyman-alpha systems (DLAs) are useful probes of star formation and galaxy formation at high redshift. We study the physical properties of DLAs and their relationship to Lyman-break galaxies using cosmological hydrodynamic simulations based on the ...

Simulating Galaxy Formation [PDF]
Proceedings of the International School of Physics “Enrico Fermi”, 1995 A review on numerical simulations of galaxy formation is given. Different numerical methods to solve collisionless and gas dynamical systems are outlined and one particular simulation technique, Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics, is discussed in some ...

Formation of Galaxy Clusters [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2012 In this review, we describe our current understanding of cluster formation: from the general picture of collapse from initial density fluctuations in an expanding Universe to detailed simulations of cluster formation including the effects of galaxy ...

Back to the Green Valley: How to Rejuvenate an S0 Galaxy through Minor Mergers
Galaxies, 2015 About half of the S0 galaxies in the nearby Universe show signatures of recent or ongoing star formation. Whether these S0 galaxies were rejuvenated by the accretion of fresh gas is still controversial.

, 2008 We present a new set of multi-million particle SPH simulations of the formation of disk dominated galaxies in a cosmological context. Some of these galaxies are higher resolution versions of the models already described in Governato et al (2007).

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We study the recent star formation histories (SFHs) of 575 intermediate-mass galaxies (IMGs, 10 ^9 ≤ M / M _⊙ ≤ 10 ^10 ) in COSMOS at 0.3 < z < 0.4 by comparing their H α and UV luminosities.

Fractional yields inferred from halo and thick disk stars [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2013 Linear [Q/H]-[O/H] relations, Q = Na, Mg, Si, Ca, Ti, Cr, Fe, Ni, are inferred from a sample (N = 67) of recently studied FGK-type dwarf stars in the solar neighbourhood including different populations (Nissen and Schuster 2010, Ramirez et al ...

Formation of a Massive Lenticular Galaxy Under the Tidal Interaction with a Group of Dwarf Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Based on the atomic-hydrogen (H i ) observations using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope, we present a detailed study of the gas-rich massive S0 galaxy NGC 1023 in a nearby galaxy group.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998 It is argued that within the standard Big Bang cosmological model the bulk of the mass of the luminous parts of the large galaxies likely had been assembled by redshift z ∼ 10. Galaxy assembly this early would be difficult to fit in the widely discussed adiabatic cold dark matter model for structure formation ...
