Abstract:

AbstractIf Einstein-Newton gravity holds on galactic and larger scales, then current observations demonstrate that the stars and interstellar gas of a typical bright galaxy account for only a few percent of its total nonlinear mass. Dark matter makes up the rest and cannot be faint stars or any other baryonic form because it was already present and decoupled from the radiation plasma at z = 1000, long before any nonlinear object formed. The weak gravito-sonic waves so precisely measured by CMB observations are detected again at z = 4 as order unity fluctuations in intergalactic matter. These s

Abstract:

Fundamental to our understanding of the universe is the evolution of structures, from galaxies to clusters of galaxies to large-scale sheets and filaments of galaxies and voids. The investigation of the evolution of large-scale structure not only provides us with the key test of theories of structure formation, but also allows us to measure fundamental cosmological parameters. The CNOC2 (Canadian Network for Observational Cosmology) Field Galaxy Redshift Survey is the first large redshift survey of faint galaxies carried out with the explicit goal of investigating the evolution of large scale

Abstract:

Abstract Measurements of galaxy clustering in upcoming surveys such as those planned for the Euclid and Roman satellites, and the SKA Observatory, will be sensitive to distortions from lensing magnification and Doppler effects, beyond the standard redshift-space distortions. The amplitude of these contributions depends sensitively on magnification bias and evolution bias in the galaxy number density. Magnification bias quantifies the change in the observed number of galaxies gained or lost by lensing magnification, while evolution bias quantifies the physical change in the galaxy number densit

AbstractRecent optical and near-infrared surveys have considerably improved our knowledge of galactic structure and galactic evolution. Two ways can be used to infer this knowledge from datasets: either inversing the data to get parameters describing the Galaxy, or using a synthetic approaches to test scenarios of formation and theoretical models for star and galaxy formation and evolution, both approaches being complementary. Using the synthetic approach the Besancon Galaxy model allows to test scenarios for the structure and evolution of the Galaxy by comparing simulations with the survey da

AbstractThe combination of chemical abundance, kinematic, and age data for stars near the sun provides important information about the early evolution of the Galaxy.

This subdwarf system now forms a flattened, pressure-supported distribution, with axial ratio ∼2:1. The thick disk formed subsequent to the subdwarf system.

AbstractModern models of Galaxy formation make fairly specific predictions which are amenable to detailed tests with galactic kinematic and chemical abundance data. For example, popular Cold Dark Matter models ‘predict’ growth of the Galaxy about a central core, which should contain the oldest stars. Later accretion of material forms the outer halo and the disks, while continuing accretion will continue to affect the kinematic structure of both the outer halo and the thin disk.

AbstractThe evolution of galaxies is driven by the birth and death of stars.

These cool stars also produce dust grains that play an important role in the temperature regulation of the interstellar medium (ISM), chemistry, and the formation of planets. These stars can be resolved in all of the nearby galaxies. Therefore, the Local Group of galaxies offers us a superb near-field cosmology site. Here we can reconstruct th

Using the largest available catalog of galaxy clusters, we show for the first time that cluster orientations are correlated over even larger scales—up to 200–300 comoving Mpc—and such alignments are seen to redshifts of at least z ≃ 1.

The Milky Way is currently the subject of great observational effort. This includes both ESA's unique Gaia mission, as well as a multitude of ground-based surveys. Several of these are already returning data of unprecedented depth and quality for large numbers of Milky Way stars. These new data are likely to lead to a quantum step in our understanding of Milky Way structure and evolution. Because the new data will allow us to study our Galaxy at much greater resolution than possible in other galaxies, we also expect to greatly improve our understanding of disk galaxy formation in general.

Using a new algorithm that measures the volume of orbits in real space using a tessellation, we rapidly isolate commensurate (resonant) orbits. We identify phase-space regions occupied by different orbital families. Compared to spectral methods, the tessellation algorithm can identify resonant orbits within a few dynamical periods, crucial for understanding an evolving galaxy model. The flexible methodology accepts arbitrary potentials, enabling detailed descriptions of the orbital families. We appl

AbstractWe present the analysis of a sample of strong-lensing galaxy group candidates. Our main findings are: confirmation of group-scale systems, complex light distributions, presence of large-scale structures in their surroundings, and evidence of a strong-lensing bias in the mass-concentration relation. We also report the detection of the first 'Bullet group'.

Abstract:

AbstractTo investigate bar destruction by a vertical head-on galaxy encounter, the dynamical evolution after the instantaneous momentum change of the impulsive approximation of a vertical head-on galaxy encounter, and the instability of finite amplitude one-armed perturbations to barred structure, are investigated by 2-dimensional N-body simulations.Preliminary results show that off-center vertical head-on collisions induce bar destruction but collisions in which the colliding galaxy passes through the very center of the target galaxy do not induce bar destruction.

Abstract:

The star-formation history and chemodynamical evolution of Blue Compact Dwarf (BCD) galaxies are central issues in dwarf galaxy research. In spite of being old in their vast majority, BCDs resemble in many aspects unevolved low-mass galaxies in the early universe. They are gas-rich (Hi mass fraction of typically > 30%) and metal-deficient (7.1 $\la$ 12+log(O/H) $\la$ 8.3) extragalactic systems, undergoing intense star-forming (SF) activity within an underlying low-surface brightness (LSB) host galaxy.

The construction of models is the most effective tool for a synthesis of various observational data and for a quantitative study of physical and dynamical structure and evolution of stellar systems. Classical models of spiral galaxies were based on rotational velocities, which were identified with circular velocities. They were designed to represent the galactic attraction force in the radial direction.

Abstract:

AbstractSome unsolved cosmological questions remain in relation to the formation of structure in the universe. One way of addressing such questions is to use rich galaxy clusters as tracers of the growth of large-scale structure. To date, studies of rich clusters of galaxies have concentrated on systems generally at either high redshift or in the local universe. The properties of clusters and their constituent galaxies at these extrema are becoming well understood. In particular, it is becoming clear that rich clusters have undergone considerable evolution both dynamically and in their galaxy

Abstract:

We use 2D hydrodynamical calculations to examine the effect of the external medium on evolution of supernova-driven outflows from dwarf galaxies. Babul & Rees (1992) have suggested a high external pressure may be able to prevent the outflows from escaping beyond the galaxy and that this material, as it cools and falls back into the galaxy, would serve as fuel for a second epoch of star formation. When thermal pressure is dominant, such evolution of the outflows is seen in our simulations and the gas falls back into the galaxy. Babul & Rees, however, did not take into account the possib

Abstract:

Dwarf Spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are the faintest baryonic systems recognized as galaxies. Understanding the structure and stellar populations of these systems is critical for the modelling of their formation and evolution, and by extension, for understanding the general problem of galaxy formation and evolution. Further, as dSphs are the only available probes of the distant halo of the Galaxy, understanding their structure is a crucial step in the study of the gravitational potential of the halo and the mass of the Galaxy.

AbstractObservational and theoretical evidence that internal, slow (“secular”) evolution reshapes galaxy disks is reviewed in Kormendy & Kennicutt (2004). This update has three aims. First, I emphasize that this evolution is very general – it is as fundamental to the evolution of galaxy disks as (e. g.) core collapse is to globular clusters, as the production of hot Jupiters is to the evolution of protoplanetary disks, and as evolution to red giants containing proto-white-dwarfs is to stellar evolution. One consequence for disk galaxies is the buildup of dense central components that get m

Abstract:

A nonlinear thin-disk galactic dynamo model based on α-quenching is proposed. Assuming that the mean helicity depends on the magnetic field strength averaged across the disk, we derive a universal form of nonlinearity in the radial dynamo equation. We discuss the evolution of the regular magnetic field in the Milky Way and the Andromeda Nebula. It is argued that the reversals of the regular magnetic field in the Galaxy are a relic inherited from the structure of the seed field. We also briefly discuss the role of the turbulent diamagnetism and the effects of galactic evolution on the dynamo.

ABSTRACT The supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) are at the lower end of the mass function of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and reside preferentially in late-type host galaxies with pseudobulges, which are thought to be formed by internal secular evolution. On the other hand, the population of radio-loud NLS1s presents a challenge for the relativistic jet paradigm, which states that powerful radio jets are associated exclusively with very high mass SMBHs in elliptical hosts, which are built up through galaxy mergers.
