Aims: We present a new method that uses luminosity or stellar mass functions combined with clustering measurements to select samples of galaxies at different redshifts likely to follow a progenitor-to-descendant relationship. As the method…

We analyse the sizes and specific angular momentum content of galaxies in the Colibre cosmological hydrodynamical simulations spanning two orders of magnitude in mass resolution. We compare the predicted size-mass and angular momentum-mass…

We consider seven distant galaxies with clearly evident spiral structure from HST images. Three of these were chosen from Vogt et al. (1996) (VFP) and have measured rotational velocities. Five were chosen from the Medium Deep Survey and are…

[abridged] We study the dependence of the galaxy size evolution on morphology, stellar mass and large scale environment for a sample of 298 group and 384 field quiescent early-type galaxies from the COSMOS survey, selected from z~1 to the…

The traditional knowledge of the mechanisms that caused the formation and evolution of early-type galaxies (ETG) in a hierarchical universe was challenged by the unexpected finding by ATLAS3D that 86% of the ETGs show signs of a…

We use a hybrid observational/theoretical approach to study the relation between galaxy kinematics and the derived stellar and halo masses of galaxies up to z=3 as a function of stellar mass, redshift and morphology. Our observational…

Using observed data from the literature, we compare in one single publication the angular momentum (AM) of low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs), with that of high surface brightness galaxies (HSBGs), a comparison that either is currently…

By means of chemical evolution models for ellipticals, spirals and irregular galaxies, we aim at investigating the physical meaning and the redshift evolution of the mass-metallicity relation as well as how this relation is connected with…

Early-type galaxies exhibit thermal and molecular resonance emission from dust that is shed and heated through stellar mass loss as a subset of the population moves through the AGB phase of evolution. Because this emission can give direct…

How elliptical galaxy dynamics relate to galaxy structure, stellar populations, spiral galaxies and environment are reviewed. The evidence assembled shows that most, if not all, galaxies originally classified as gE contain disks within…

The processes are investigated by which gas loses its angular momentum during the protogalactic collapse phase, leading to disk galaxies that are too compact with respect to the observations. High-resolution N-body/SPH simulations in a…

Taking advantage of a high-resolution simulation coupled with a state-of-art semi-analytic model of galaxy formation, we probe the mass segregation of galaxies in groups and clusters, focusing on which physical mechanisms are driving it. We…

The angular momentum (AM) evolution of stellar interiors, along with the resulting rotation rates of stellar remnants, remains poorly understood. Asteroseismic measurements of red giant stars reveal that their cores rotate much faster than…

Angular momentum distribution and its redistribution are of crucial importance in formation and evolution of circumstellar disks. Many molecular line observations toward young stellar objects indicate that radial distributions of the…

Extreme emission line galaxies (EELGs), where nebular emissions contribute 30-40% of the flux in certain photometric bands, are ubiquitous in the early universe (z>6). We utilise deep NIRCam imaging from the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic…

We present JWST/NIRCam and MIRI observations of twelve $z\sim3$ sub-millimeter galaxies (SMGs) from the ALESS survey, combined with high-resolution ($0.08''-0.16''$) ALMA 870$\mu$m imaging, enabling spatially resolved SED fitting on…

The rotational properties of the visible and dark components of low-mass disk galaxies (vrot<=100 km/s) are investigated using the Swaters sample. The rotational parameter lambda'=lambda_DM*(j_d/m_d) is determined, where lambda_DM is the…

Theoretical studies of collapsing clouds have found that even a relatively weak magnetic field (B) may prevent the formation of disks and their fragmentation. However, most previous studies have been limited to cases where B and the…

In this work we present CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) observations of a pilot sample of 15 early-type galaxies (ETGs) drawn from the MASSIVE galaxy survey, a volume-limited integral-field spectroscopic study of the most massive ETGs ($M_*…

It is generally believed that major galaxy mergers with mass ratios in the range 1:1-3:1 result in remnants that have properties similar to elliptical galaxies, and minor mergers below 10:1 result in disturbed spiral galaxies. The…
