Evolution of the Most Massive Galaxies to z=0.6: I. A New Method for Physical Parameter Estimation

open access: yes, 2011
We use principal component analysis (PCA) to estimate stellar masses, mean stellar ages, star formation histories (SFHs), dust extinctions and stellar velocity dispersions for ~290,000 galaxies with stellar masses greater than $10^{11}Msun and redshifts ...

Dependence of Planet Populations on Stellar Mass and Metallicity: A Pebble-accretion-based Planet Population Synthesis Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The formation and evolution of planetary systems are linked to their host stellar environment. In this study, we employ a pebble-accretion-based planet population synthesis model to explore the correlation between planetary properties and stellar mass ...

Resolved maps of stellar mass and SED of galaxies from optical/NIR imaging and SPS models

open access: yes, 2009
We report on the method developed by Zibetti, Charlot and Rix (2009) to construct resolved stellar mass maps of galaxies from optical and NIR imaging. Accurate pixel-by-pixel colour information (specifically g-i and i-H) is converted into stellar mass-to-

Stellar Masses and Radii as Constraints on Stellar Models [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1993
AbstractThe current status of empirical data on stellar masses and radii of sufficient accuracy to give constraints on stellar models is reviewed. Results from the best-studied eclipsing binaries can already trace the main-sequence evolution of 1-10 M⊙ stars in considerable detail and will be even more useful when supplemented by chemical abundance ...

Modeling the Mass Distribution and Gravitational Potential of Nearby Disk Galaxies: Implications for the Interstellar Medium Dynamical Equilibrium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We characterize stellar, gas, and dark matter mass distributions for 17 nearby massive disk galaxies from the PHANGS sample. This allows us to compute the gravitational potential that vertically confines the interstellar gas and determines its ...

On the scatter in the relation between stellar mass and halo mass: random or halo formation time dependent?

open access: yes, 2013
The empirical HOD model of Wang et al. 2006 fits, by construction, both the stellar mass function and correlation function of galaxies in the local Universe. In contrast, the semi-analytical models of De Lucia & Blazoit 2007 (DLB07) and Guo et al.

The Structures of Distant Galaxies V: The Evolution of Galaxy Structure in Stellar Mass at z < 1

open access: yes, 2012
Galaxy structure and morphology is nearly always studied using the light originating from stars, however ideally one is interested in measuring structure using the stellar mass distribution.

Absence of Evidence Is Not Evidence of Absence: The Color-Density Relation at Fixed Stellar Mass Persists to z ~ 1

open access: yes, 2010
We use data drawn from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey to investigate the relationship between local galaxy density, stellar mass, and rest-frame galaxy color.

Exploring the Evolution of a Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy with Smoothed-particle Hydrodynamics Simulations. I. Stellar Feedback

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A fundamental question regarding the evolution of dwarf spheroidal galaxies is the identification of the key physical mechanisms responsible for gas depletion.
