The Evolution of Galaxy Structure Over Cosmic Time
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 Universe. Observed changes in galaxy structures reveal formation processes that only galaxy structural analyses can provide. This pedagogical review provides a detailed discussion of the major methods used to study g...
متن کاملThe Deep2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: the Role of Galaxy Environment in the Cosmic Star–formation History
Using galaxy samples drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey, we study the relationship between star formation and environment at z ∼ 0.1 and z ∼ 1. We estimate the total star–formation rate (SFR) and specific star–formation rate (sSFR) for each galaxy according to the measured [O II] λ3727Å nebular line luminosity, corrected using empirical calibrations to ...
متن کاملCosmic Shear from Galaxy Spins.
We discuss the origin of galactic angular momentum and the statistics of the present-day spin distribution. It is expected that the galaxy spin axes are correlated with the intermediate principal axis of the gravitational shear tensor. This allows one to reconstruct the shear field and thereby the full gravitational potential from the observed galaxy spin fields. We use the direction of the ang...
متن کاملGalaxy formation spanning cosmic history
Over the past several decades, galaxy formation theory has met with significant successes. In order to test current theories thoroughly we require predictions for as yet unprobed regimes. To this end, we describe a new implementation of the GALFORM semi-analytic model of galaxy formation. Our motivation is the success of the model described by Bower et al. in explaining many aspects of galaxy f...
متن کاملNew survey finds fertility decline in India.
A brief indication was provided of demography, fertility, and contraceptive usage and knowledge based on the recent 1992/93 Indian National Family Health Survey. The sample included 88,562 households and 89,777 ever married women aged 13-49 years in 24 states and the National Capital Territory of Delhi. About 38% of household members were aged under 15 years. The sex ratio was 944 females to...
