Probing Chemical Enrichment in Extremely Metal-poor Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The chemical composition of galaxies offers vital insights into their formation and evolution. In particular, the relationship between helium abundance (He/H) and metallicity serves as a key diagnostic for estimating the primordial helium yield from Big ...

Towards the First Galaxies

open access: yes, 2009
The formation of the first galaxies at redshifts z~10-15 signaled the transition from the simple initial state of the universe to one of ever increasing complexity.

Non-Gaussianity from Large-Scale Structure Surveys

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2010
With the advent of galaxy surveys which provide large samples of galaxies or galaxy clusters over a volume comparable to the horizon size (SDSS-III, HETDEX, Euclid, JDEM, LSST, Pan-STARRS, CIP, etc.) or mass-selected large cluster samples over a large ...

METALS IN THE ICM: WITNESSES OF CLUSTER FORMATION AND EVOLUTION

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2013
The baryonic composition of galaxy clusters and groups is dominated by a hot, X-ray emitting Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM). The mean metallicity of the ICM has been found to be roughly 0.3 ÷ 0.5 times the solar value, therefore a large fraction of this gas ...

The formation of the first galaxies and the transition to low-mass star formation

open access: yes, 2009
The formation of the first galaxies at redshifts z ~ 10-15 signaled the transition from the simple initial state of the universe to one of ever increasing complexity.

Massive Black Hole Seed Formation in Strong X-Ray Environments at High Redshift

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Direct collapse of pristine gas in early galaxies is a promising pathway for forming supermassive black holes (SMBHs) powering active galactic nuclei at the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). This seeding mechanism requires suppression of molecular hydrogen (H

Revealing the Origins of Galactic Globular Clusters via their Mg–Al Abundances

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Many Galactic globular clusters (GCs) originated in diverse host galaxies before being subsequently incorporated into the Milky Way through hierarchical galaxy assembly. Identifying their origins is crucial for revealing galaxy properties at early times.

SIMULATION OF LARGE-SCALE STRUCTURE OF UNIVERSE BY GAUSSIAN RANDOM FIELDS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2018
Large-scale structure of Universe includes galaxy clusters connected by filaments. Voids occupy the rest of cosmic volume.The search of any dependencities in filament structure can give answer to more general questions about origin of structures in the ...

The Velocity Dispersion Function for Quiescent Galaxies in Massive Clusters from IllustrisTNG

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We derive the central stellar velocity dispersion function (VDF) for quiescent galaxies in 280 massive clusters with $\mathrm{log}({M}_{200}/{M}_{\odot })\gt 14$ in IllustrisTNG300. The VDF is an independent tracer of the dark matter mass distribution of
