A Closer Look at the Extended Edge-on Low-surface Brightness Galaxies
To understand the origin of extended disks of low-surface brightness (LSB) galaxies, we studied in detail four such systems with large disks seen edge on. Two of them are edge-on giant LSB galaxies (gLSBGs) recently identified by our team.

And the winner is: galaxy mass
The environment is known to affect the formation and evolution of galaxies considerably best visible through the well-known morphology-density relationship.

Observational Evidence for an Age Dependence of Halo Bias
We study the dependence of the cross-correlation between galaxies and galaxy groups on group properties. Confirming previous results, we find that the correlation strength is stronger for more massive groups, in good agreement with the expected mass ...

The Impact of Molecular Hydrogen Cooling on the Galaxy Formation Threshold
We study the impact of molecular (H _2 ) and atomic (H i ) hydrogen cooling on the galaxy formation threshold. We calculate the fraction of dark matter (DM) halos that exceeds a critical mass required for star formation, M _crit ( z ), as a function of ...

I summarize current knowledge of galaxy formation with emphasis on the initial conditions provided by the Lambda CDM cosmology, integral constraints from cosmological quantities, and the demographics of high-redshift protogalaxies. Tables are provided summarizing the number density, star formation rate and stellar mass per object, cosmic star formation

The electron density ( n _e ) of the interstellar medium (ISM) in star-forming galaxies is intimately linked to star formation and ionization condition.

Formation of Triaxial Galaxy [PDF]
Results of N-body simulation of dissipationless cold collapse of spherical gravitating system are presented. We compared the results with properties of elliptical galaxies. The system gradually evolved to triaxial system. The projected density profile is
