Satellite galaxies in the Illustris-1 simulation: anisotropic locations around relatively isolated hosts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We investigate the locations of satellite galaxies in the z = 0 redshift slice of the hydrodynamical Illustris-1 simulation. As expected from previous work, the satellites are distributed anisotropically in the plane of the sky, with a preference for ...

Assisted inspirals of stellar mass black holes embedded in AGN discs: solving the ‘final au problem’ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We explore the evolution of stellar mass black hole binaries (BHBs) which are formed in the self-gravitating disks of active galactic nuclei (AGN). Hardening due to three-body scattering and gaseous drag are effective mechanisms that reduce the semi ...

Star formation and the origin of stellar masses [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1992
AbstractWe present a new model to explain stellar mass distributions in different stellar environments. In our model, the protostar phase is terminated, when the protostellar core embedded in a molecular clump experiences a collision with another star or protostellar clump, which ejects the protostellar core from its parent clump.

On the central stellar mass density and the inside-out growth of early-type galaxies

open access: yes, 2012
[Abridged] In this paper we derive the central stellar mass density within a fixed radius and the effective stellar mass density within the effective radius for a complete sample of 34 ETGs morphologically selected at 0 ...

Orbital Migration of Interacting Stellar Mass Black Holes in Disks around Supermassive Black Holes

open access: yes, 2019
The merger rate of stellar-mass black hole binaries (sBHBs) inferred by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) suggests the need for an efficient source of sBHB formation.

GAMA/G10-COSMOS/3D-HST: the 0 < z < 5 cosmic star formation history, stellar-mass, and dust-mass densities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We use the energy-balance code MAGPHYS to determine stellar and dust masses, and dust corrected star-formation rates for over 200,000 GAMA galaxies, 170,000 G10-COSMOS galaxies and 200,000 3D-HST galaxies.

Microlensing and the Stellar Mass Function [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1996
Traditional approaches to measuring the stellar mass function (MF) are fundamentally limited because objects are detected based on their luminosity, not their mass. These methods are thereby restricted to luminous and relatively nearby stellar populations. Gravitational microlensing promises to revolutionize our understanding of the MF.

The stellar mass assembly of galaxies from z=0 to z=4. Analysis of a sample selected in the rest-frame near-infrared with Spitzer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Using a sample of ~28,000 sources selected at 3.6-4.5 microns with Spitzer observations of the HDF-N, the CDF-S, and the Lockman Hole (surveyed area: ~664 arcmin^2), we study the evolution of the stellar mass content of the Universe at ...

Reconciling observed and simulated stellar halo masses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We use cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of Milky-Way-mass galaxies from the FIRE project to evaluate various strategies for estimating the mass of a galaxy's stellar halo from deep, integrated-light images.
