The Star Formation Histories of Local Galaxies: Continuous or Intermittent? [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
We explore a model in which efficient star formation in galaxies is triggered by merging satellites. We show that the merger/interaction rates predicted by hierarchical galaxy formation models depend strongly on galaxy mass. If a merger of a satellite larger than 1% the mass of the primary triggers efficient star formation, low-mass dwarf galaxies ...

Formation of Anisotropy in Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996
Since observations of elliptical galaxies show only a small fraction of gaseous matter, dissipationless N-body models are mainly used to follow the dynamical evolution of these systems. In order to end up with the observed de Vaucouleurs profile these models must be initially very cold which leads finally to a velocity distribution that is isotropic in

The Impact of Molecular Hydrogen Cooling on the Galaxy Formation Threshold

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
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 ...

Homochiral Self‐Sorting During Macrocycle Formation and their Chiroptical Properties

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Imine condensation of C2‐symmetric chiral aldehydes with aliphatic amines results in 2 : 2 macrocycles lacking self‐sorting, whereas aromatic amines yield macrocycles with complete homochiral self‐sorting. These macrocycles exhibit unique chiroptical properties attributed to rigidification compared to the starting aldehydes.

Galaxy and star formation up to z ~ 1 [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
Star formation history shows a gradual decline since the last 8-9 Gyr (z=1). The bulk of present-day stellar mass and metal content was formed at redshifts lower than 2-3, which is consistent with a hierarchical scenario of galaxy formation. Observations of galaxy evolution during the last 2/3 of the Universe age could be done in great details, and ...

Numerical Simulations of Galaxy Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
An overview over the current status of modeling galaxies by means of numerical simulations is given. After a short description of how galaxies form in hierarchically clustering scenarios, success and failures of current simulations are demonstrated using three different applications: the morphology of present day galaxies; the appearance of high ...
