Constraining Galaxy Formation Models with Dwarf Ellipticals in Clusters
, 2005 Recent observations demonstrate that dwarf elliptical (dE) galaxies in clusters, despite their faintness, are likely a critical galaxy type for understanding the processes behind galaxy formation.

The evolution of galaxy formation [PDF]
Astronomy & Geophysics, 2011 Our history of understanding galaxy formation could be traced through the development of individual ideas. A cynic might be tempted to suggest that new catchphrases are developed at a faster rate than genuine progress is made.

ON THE INTERPLAY BETWEEN STAR FORMATION AND FEEDBACK IN GALAXY FORMATION SIMULATIONS [PDF]
, 2014 We investigate the star formation–feedback cycle in cosmological galaxy formation simulations, focusing on the progenitors of Milky Way (MW)-sized galaxies. We find that in order to reproduce key properties of the MW progenitors, such as semi-empirically

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We make use of JWST medium-band and broadband NIRCam imaging, along with ultradeep MIRI 5.6 μ m imaging, in the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field to identify prominent line emitters at z ≃ 7–8.

A model for cosmological simulations of galaxy formation physics: multi-epoch validation [PDF]
, 2013 We present a multi-epoch analysis of the galaxy populations formed within the cosmological hydrodynamical simulations presented in Vogelsberger et al. (2013).

On the Signature of Black Holes on the Quenched Stellar Mass Function
The Astrophysical JournalAs star-forming galaxies approach or exceed a stellar mass of around 10 ^11 M _⊙ , they are increasingly likely to be quenched in a process generically called mass quenching.

The Formation of Disk Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 1997 We present a scenario for the formation of disks which explains not only the properties of normal galaxies, but the properties of the population of low surface brightness galaxies (LSBs) as well. We use a gravitationally self-consistent model for disk collapse to calculate the observable properties of disk galaxies as a function of mass and angular ...

Globular cluster formation in the context of galaxy formation and evolution [PDF]
, 2014 The formation of globular clusters (GCs) remains one of the main unsolved problems in star and galaxy formation. The past decades have seen important progress in constraining the physics of GC formation from a variety of directions.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We investigate the formation channels of the intracluster light (ICL) and the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) in clusters at z = 0. For this, we perform multi-resolution cosmological N -body simulations using the “galaxy replacement technique.” We study ...
