Modeling galaxies in redshift space at the field level

metallicity of starburst galaxies in chandra deep field south (cdf-s) , at 0.5

چکیده یکی از پارامترهای اصلی در دنبال کردن تاریخچه ی تشکیل ستاره ها و تحول کهکشان ها، مطالعه ی میزان فراوانی عناصر آن ها است. در این پایان نامه برای مطالعه ی همبستگی میان فراوانی فلزی و جرم ستاره ای کهکشان ها، از داده های طیفی 89 کهکشانِ ستاره زا استفاده شده است. طیف ها توسط طیف نگار فورس2 از میدان ژرف جنوبی چاندرا گرفته شده و جابه جایی به سرخ طیف ها همه بزرگتر از نیم و کوچکتر از یک هستند. جر...

Galaxies at High Redshift

Galaxies at High Redshift

Within just the last few years, we have advanced from knowing only a few galaxies at z > 2 to having redshifts for nearly 1000 z ∼ 2–5 objects. The majority of this sample has been detected through the photometric “dropout” technique used so successfully by Steidel and his collaborators. In addition, a handful of objects have already been detected at z > 5, and we may already have a few objects...

Old Galaxies at High Redshift

The most passive galaxies at high redshift are unlikely to be identified by either narrow-band emission-line searches, or by Lyman limit searches (both techniques which have been highlighted at this meeting) simply because such selection methods rely on the presence of a strong ultraviolet component. Selection on the basis of extreme radio power has also proved to yield optically active objects...

The Environment of Galaxies at Low Redshift

We compare environmental effects in two analogous samples of galaxies, one from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the other from a semi-analytic model (SAM) based on the Millennium Simulation (MS), to test to what extent current SAMs of galaxy formation are reproducing environmental effects. We estimate the large-scale environment of each galaxy using a Bayesian density estimator based on...
