An enhanced merger fraction within the galaxy population of the SSA22 protocluster at z = 3.1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The overdense environments of protoclusters of galaxies in the early Universe (z > 2) are expected to accelerate the evolution of galaxies, with an increased rate of stellar mass assembly and black hole accretion compared to co-eval galaxies in the ...

Proton Acceleration with Relativistic Electromagnetic Shock

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
New Ion Acceleration Mechanism! A novel cosmic‐ray proton acceleration mechanism is proposed, where relativistic electromagnetic shocks accelerate protons transversely. Hamiltonian analysis yields a scaling law linking the proton energy to the minimum longitudinal thickness of the shock.

A Unified, Merger-driven Model of the Origin of Starbursts, Quasars, the Cosmic X-Ray Background, Supermassive Black Holes, and Galaxy Spheroids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present an evolutionary model for starbursts, quasars, and spheroidal galaxies in which mergers between gas-rich galaxies drive nuclear inflows of gas, producing starbursts and feeding the buried growth of supermassive black holes (BHs) until feedback

Galaxy mergers and gravitational lens statistics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1994
We investigate the impact of hierarchical galaxy merging on the statistics of gravitational lensing of distant sources. Since no definite theoretical predictions for the merging history of luminous galaxies exist, we adopt a parametrized prescription, which allows us to adjust the expected number of pieces comprising a typical present galaxy at z=0.65.

Galaxy merger morphologies and time-scales from simulations of equal-mass gas-rich disc mergers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A key obstacle to understanding the galaxy merger rate and its role in galaxy evolution is the difficulty in constraining the merger properties and time-scales from instantaneous snapshots of the real Universe.

Mergers and galaxy evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Galaxy merging is the late time manifestation of the galaxy formation process and likely significantly effects z < 1 galaxies. A "maximum reasonable rate" model for merging finds a ,~ 2 mag K band increase in the luminosities of dwarf galaxies so that they contribute significantly to the faint counts, with spirals and ellipticals being far less ...

Radiation Hardened Infrared Photodetectors Based on a Narrow Bandgap Conjugated Polymer Semiconductor

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A blackbody‐sensitive infrared photodetector comprised of an open‐shell conjugated polymer demonstrates high sensitivity without cooling and exceptional radiation hardness, surpassing inorganic compound semiconductor devices. This functionality, inherent to the polymer semiconductor, provides a new frontier for low‐cost, size, weight, and power space ...

The growth of massive black holes in galaxy merger simulations with feedback by radiation pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study the growth of massive black holes (BHs) in galaxies using smoothed particle hydrodynamic simulations of major galaxy mergers with new implementations of BH accretion and feedback.
