Using samples drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we study the relationship between local galaxy density and the properties of galaxies on the red sequence. After removing the mean dependence of average overdensity (or "environment")…
We present COSMOS-Drift And SHift (DASH), a Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 imaging survey of the COSMOS field in the H_160 filter. The survey comprises 456 individual WFC3 pointings corresponding to an area of 0.49 deg^2 (0.66 deg^2 when…
In this work, we study the Luminosity-Metallicity relation (LMR) and the Stellar Mass -Metallicity relation (MMR) of galactic systems in a hierarhical clustering scenario. We performed numerical hydrodynamical simulations with the chemical…
We study the influence of relevant quantities, including the density of dark energy (DE), to the predicted Hubble outflow around a system of galaxies. In particular, we are interested in the difference between two models: 1) The standard…
Stellar ages are key for determining the formation history of the Milky Way, but are difficult to measure precisely. Furthermore, methods that use chemical abundances to infer ages may entangle the intrinsic evolution of stars with the…
The relation between the mass of supermassive black holes located in the center of the host galaxies and the kinetic energy of random motions of the corresponding bulges can be reinterpreted as an age-temperature diagram for galaxies. This…
We study the evolution of the halo-halo correlation function and bias in four cosmological models (LCDM, OCDM, tauCDM, and SCDM) using very high-resolution N-body simulations. The high force and mass resolution allows dark matter (DM) halos…
We examine correlations between the masses, sizes, and star formation histories for a large sample of low-redshift early-type galaxies, using a simple suite of dynamical and stellar populations models. We confirm an anti-correlation between…
At redshifts around 0.1 the CFHT Legacy Survey Deep fields contain some 6x10^4 galaxies spanning the mass range from 10^5 to 10^12 Msun. We measure the stellar mass dependence of the two point correlation using angular measurements to…
We place limits on the mean density of the universe and the slope of the linear power spectrum around a megaparsec scale by comparing the universal mass function to the observed luminosity function. Numerical simulations suggest that the…
We investigate the environmental quenching of galaxies, especially those with stellar masses (M*)$<10^{9.5} M_\odot$, beyond the local universe. Essentially all local low-mass quenched galaxies (QGs) are believed to live close to massive…
The cumulative comoving number-density of galaxies as a function of stellar mass or central velocity dispersion is commonly used to link galaxy populations across different epochs. By assuming that galaxies preserve their number-density in…
Abundance matching between galaxies and halos has proven to be an informative technique, less dependent on detailed physical approximations than some other methods. We extend the discussion to the dwarf galaxies realm and to the study of…
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…
Local galaxies follow scaling relations between mass and stellar population properties such as age and metallicity, which encode key information on their evolutionary histories. We revise these relations using the largest spectroscopic…
We use a high-resolution $N$-body simulation to study how the formation of cold dark matter (CDM) halos is affected by their environments, and how such environmental effects produce the age-dependence of halo clustering observed in recent…
Connecting high-redshift galaxies to their low-redshift descendants is one of the most important and challenging tasks of galaxy evolution studies. In this work, we investigate whether incorporating high-redshift environmental factors…
