As they grow, galaxies can transition from irregular/spheroidal with 'bursty'star formation histories (SFHs), to discy with smooth SFHs. But even in simulations, the direct physical …

We present a series of high-resolution cosmological simulations1 of galaxy formation to z= 0, spanning halo masses∼ 108–1013 M⊙, and stellar masses∼ 104–1011 M⊙. Our …

The assembly of stellar and supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass in elliptical galaxies since z∼ 1 can help to diagnose the origins of locally observed correlations between SMBH …

Feedback from massive stars is believed to play a critical role in driving galactic super‐ winds that enrich the intergalactic medium and shape the galaxy mass function, mass …

We develop a model for the cosmological role of mergers in the evolution of starbursts, quasars, and spheroidal galaxies. By combining theoretically well-constrained halo and …
PF Hopkins, L Hernquist, TJ Cox… - The Astrophysical …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
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 …

We study the evolution of the ionization state of the intergalactic medium (IGM) at the end of the reionization epoch using moderate-resolution spectra of a sample of 19 quasars at 5.74< …
