Disk Galaxy Models Driven by Stochastic Self-Propagating Star Formation

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2010
We present a model of chemical and spectrophotometric evolution of disk galaxies based on a stochastic self-propagating star formation scenario. The model incorporates galaxy formation through the process of accretion, chemical and photometric evolution ...

Models of Late-type Disk Galaxies: 1-D Versus 2-D

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2014
We investigate the effects of stochasticity on the observed galaxy parameters by comparing our stochastic star formation two-dimensional (2-D) galaxy evolution models with the commonly used one-dimensional (1-D) models with smooth star formation. The 2-D

Understanding Galaxy Formation and Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The old dream of integrating into one the study of micro and macrocosmos is now a reality. Cosmology, astrophysics, and particle physics intersect in a scenario (but still not a theory) of cosmic structure formation and evolution called Lambda Cold Dark ...

Morphologies of Galaxies at z ≳ 9 Uncovered by JWST/NIRCam Imaging: Cosmic Size Evolution and an Identification of an Extremely Compact Bright Galaxy at z ∼ 12

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present morphologies of galaxies at z ≳ 9 resolved by JWST/NIRCam 2–5 μ m imaging. Our sample consists of 22 galaxy candidates identified by stringent dropout and photo- z criteria in GLASS, CEERS, SMACS J0723, and Stephan’s Quintet flanking fields ...

LIMFAST. I. A Seminumerical Tool for Line Intensity Mapping

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present LIMFAST, a seminumerical code for simulating high-redshift galaxy formation and cosmic reionization as revealed by multitracer line intensity mapping (LIM) signals.

LIMFAST. II. Line Intensity Mapping as a Probe of High-redshift Galaxy Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The epoch of reionization (EoR) offers a unique window into the dawn of galaxy formation, through which high-redshift galaxies can be studied by observations of both themselves and their impact on the intergalactic medium.

Monolithic View of Galaxy Formation and Evolution

open access: yesGalaxies, 2014
We review and critically discuss the current understanding of galaxy formation and evolution limited to Early Type Galaxies (ETGs) as inferred from the observational data and briefly contrast the hierarchical and quasi-monolithic paradigms of formation ...

DESI Survey Validation Data in the COSMOS/Hyper Suprime-Cam Field: Cool Gas Trace Main-sequence Star-forming Galaxies at the Cosmic Noon

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the first result in exploring the gaseous halo and galaxy correlation using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument survey validation data in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) and Hyper Suprime-Cam field.

Galaxy Formation Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Parallelization, Special Hardware and Post-Newtonian Dynamics in Direct N - Body Simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The formation and evolution of supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries during and after galaxy mergers is an important ingredient for our understanding of galaxy formation and evolution in a cosmological context, e.g.
