We investigate the role of hierarchical assembly in the angular momentum (AM) evolution of galaxies using a sample of 471 Milky Way-mass galaxies from the TNG-50 simulation. While galaxy orientation is often attributed to tidal torques and…
We present results of a high angular resolution survey of massive OB stars in the Cygnus OB2 association that we conducted with the NIRI camera and ALTAIR adaptive optics system of the Gemini North telescope. We observed 74 O- and early…
We use the EAGLE cosmological hydrodynamic simulation suite to study the specific angular momentum of galaxies, $j$, with the aims of (i) investigating the physical causes behind the wide range of $j$ at fixed mass and (ii) examining…
The specific angular momenta ($j\equiv J/M$) of stars ($j_{\star}$), gas ($j_{\mathrm{gas}}$), baryons as a whole ($j_{\mathrm{b}}$) and dark matter haloes ($j_{\mathrm{h}}$) contain clues of vital importance about how galaxies form and…
In hierarchical structure formation, merging of galaxies is frequent and known to dramatically affect their properties. To comprehend these interactions high-resolution simulations are indispensable because of the nonlinear coupling between…
We present the evolution of the mass-metallicity (MZ) relations at z=4-10 derived with 135 galaxies identified in the JWST/NIRSpec data taken from the three major public spectroscopy programs of ERO, GLASS, and CEERS. Because there are many…
Due to the fact that HI mass measurements are not available for large galaxy samples at high redshifts, we apply a photometric estimator of the HI-to-stellar mass ratio (M_HI/M_*) calibrated using a local Universe sample of galaxies to a…

Using the ARTEMIS set of 45 high-resolution cosmological simulations, we investigate a range of merger-induced dynamical transformations of Milky Way-like galaxies. We first identify populations of accreted stars on highly radial orbits,…
We conduct a narrow-band imaging survey of [OII] emitters over a 32'x23' area in and around the XMMXCS J2215.9-1738 cluster at z=1.46 with Subaru/Suprime-Cam, and select 380 [OII] emitting galaxies down to 1.4E-17 erg/s/cm2. Among them, 16…
We present the first detailed analysis of the mass and dynamical structure of a sample of six early-type lens galaxies, selected from the Sloan Lens ACS Survey, in the redshift range 0.08 < z < 0.33. Both Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/ACS…
