galaxy populations between redshift z= 0 and the peak of cosmic galaxy/star formation (z∼ …

The big problems in star formation: the star formation rate, stellar clustering, and the initial mass function

MR Krumholz - Physics Reports, 2014 - Elsevier
Star formation lies at the center of a web of processes that drive cosmic evolution:
generation of radiant energy, synthesis of elements, formation of planets, and development …

Compaction and quenching of high-z galaxies in cosmological simulations: blue and red nuggets

A Zolotov, A Dekel, N Mandelker… - Monthly Notices of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
We use cosmological simulations to study a characteristic evolution pattern of high-redshift
galaxies. Early, stream-fed, highly perturbed, gas-rich discs undergo phases of dissipative …

A unified model for galactic discs: star formation, turbulence driving, and mass transport

MR Krumholz, B Burkhart, JC Forbes… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
We introduce a new model for the structure and evolution of the gas in galactic discs. In the
model the gas is in vertical pressure and energy balance. Star formation feedback injects …

Where stars form: inside-out growth and coherent star formation from HST Hα maps of 3200 galaxies across the main sequence at 0.7< z< 1.5

EJ Nelson, PG Van Dokkum… - The Astrophysical …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We present Hα maps at 1 kpc spatial resolution for star-forming galaxies at z∼ 1, made
possible by the Wide Field Camera 3 grism on Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Employing …

The diversity and variability of star formation histories in models of galaxy evolution

KG Iyer, S Tacchella, S Genel… - Monthly Notices of …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
Understanding the variability of galaxy star formation histories (SFHs) across a range of time-
scales provides insight into the underlying physical processes that regulate star formation …

[HTML][HTML] Observational constraints on the feeding of supermassive black holes

T Storchi-Bergmann, A Schnorr-Müller - Nature Astronomy, 2019 - nature.com
Supermassive black holes grow at the centre of galaxies in consonance with them. In this
Review Article, we discuss the mass-feeding mechanisms that lead to this growth in active …
