UniverseMachine: The correlation between galaxy growth and dark matter halo assembly from z = 0−10
We present a method to flexibly and self-consistently determine individual galaxies' star
formation rates (SFRs) from their host haloes' potential well depths, assembly histories, and …

VINTERGATAN–I. The origins of chemically, kinematically, and structurally distinct discs in a simulated Milky Way-mass galaxy
Spectroscopic surveys of the Milky Way's stars have revealed spatial, chemical, and
kinematical structures that encode its history. In this work, we study their origins using a …

Heart of darkness: the influence of galactic dynamics on quenching star formation in galaxy spheroids
J Gensior, JMD Kruijssen… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
Quenched galaxies are often observed to contain a strong bulge component. The key
question is whether this reflects a causal connection–can star formation be quenched …

The impact of chemistry on the structure of high-z galaxies
To improve our understanding of high-z galaxies, we study the impact of H2 chemistry on
their evolution, morphology and observed properties. We compare two zoom-in high …
