The evolution of galaxy structure over cosmic time
CJ Conselice - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2014 - annualreviews.org
I present a comprehensive review of the evolution of galaxy structure in the Universe from
the first galaxies currently observable at z∼ 6 down to galaxies observable in the local …

The merger rate of galaxies in the Illustris simulation: a comparison with observations and semi-empirical models
V Rodriguez-Gomez, S Genel… - Monthly Notices of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
We have constructed merger trees for galaxies in the Illustris simulation by directly tracking
the baryonic content of subhaloes. These merger trees are used to calculate the galaxy …

Constraining the galaxy–halo connection over the last 13.3 Gyr: star formation histories, galaxy mergers and structural properties
A Rodríguez-Puebla, JR Primack… - Monthly Notices of …, 2017 - academic.oup.com
We present new determinations of the stellar-to-halo mass relation (SHMR) at z= 0–10 that
match the evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function, the star formation rate (SFR)–M …

The major and minor galaxy merger rates at z< 1.5
Calculating the galaxy merger rate requires both a census of galaxies identified as merger
candidates and a cosmologically averaged" observability" timescale< T obs (z)> for …

Major galaxy mergers only trigger the most luminous active galactic nuclei
Using multiwavelength surveys of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) across a wide range of
bolometric luminosities (10 43< L bol (erg s− 1)< 5× 10 46) and redshifts (0< z< 3), we find a …

Can minor merging account for the size growth of quiescent galaxies? New results from the CANDELS survey
AB Newman, RS Ellis, K Bundy… - The Astrophysical …, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
The presence of extremely compact galaxies at z∼ 2 and their subsequent growth in
physical size has been the cause of much puzzlement. We revisit the question using deep …
