High-resolution N-body re-simulations of 15 massive (10^{14}-10^{15} Msun) dark matter haloes have been combined with the hybrid galaxy formation model GalICS (Hatton et al. 2003), to study the formation and evolution of galaxies in…

Recent studies have shown that massive elliptical galaxies have total mass density profiles within an effective radius that can be approximated as \rho_{tot}\propto r^{-\gamma'}, with mean slope <\gamma'>=2.08 \pm 0.03 and scatter…

Recent N-body simulations have shown that the assembly history of galactic halos depend on the density of large-scale environment. It implies that the galaxy properties like age and size of bulge may also vary with the surrounding…

We test the Secondary Infall Model (SIM) by direct comparison with the results of N-body simulations. Eight cluster-size and six galactic-size dark matter haloes have been selected at $z=0$ and re-simulated with high resolution. Based on…

We analyze the morphology of 125 submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) in the PRIMER-COSMOS field using double Sersic modeling on JWST NIRCam images across six bands (F150W, F200W, F277W, F356W, F410M and F444W), with SMGs being classified by bulge…

We have updated our radially-resolved SAMs of galaxy formation, which track both the atomic and molecular gas phases of the ISM. The models are adapted from those of Guo et al. using similar methodology as in Fu et al. and are run on halo…

Using the Illustris simulation, we follow thousands of elliptical galaxies back in time to identify how the dichotomy between fast and slow rotating ellipticals (FRs and SRs) develops. Comparing to the $\textrm{ATLAS}^\textrm{3D}$ survey,…

We analyse N-body galaxy merger experiments involving disc galaxies. Mergers of disc-bulge-halo models are compared to those of bulge-less, disc-halo models to quantify the effects of the central bulge on the merger dynamics and on the…

In this paper, we study the filamentary structures and the galaxy alignment along filaments at redshift $z=0.06$ in the MassiveBlack-II simulation, a state-of-the-art, high-resolution hydrodynamical cosmological simulation which includes…

We present a new method to classify galaxies from large surveys like the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using inclination-corrected concentration, inclination-corrected location on the color-magnitude diagram, and apparent axis ratio. Explicitly…

We study HST/NICMOS H-band images of bulges of two equal-sized samples of early- (T(RC3) < 4) and late-type spiral (mainly Sbc-Sc) galaxies matched in outer disk axis ratio. We find that bulges of late-type spirals are more elongated than…
