This is the first paper of a series that describes the methods and basic results of the GalICS model (for Galaxies In Cosmological Simulations). GalICS is a hybrid model for hierarchical galaxy formation studies, combining the outputs of…
We present an extended version of the semi-analytical model, GalICS. Like its predecessor, eGalICS applies a post-treatment of the baryonic physics on pre-computed dark-matter merger trees extracted from an N-body simulation. We review all…
We aim at reproducing the mass- and sigma-[alpha/Fe] relations in the stellar populations of early-type galaxies by means of a cosmologically motivated assembly history for the spheroids. We implement a detailed treatment for the chemical…
We present the modeling of SINFONI integral field dynamics of 18 star forming galaxies at z ~ 2 from Halpha line emission. The galaxies are selected from the larger sample of the SINS survey, based on the prominence of ordered rotational…
We use the semi-analytic model GalICS to predict the Tully-Fisher relation in the B, I and for the first time, in the K band, and its evolution with redshift, up to z~1. We refined the determination of the disk galaxies rotation velocity,…
We present a new version of the GalactICS code that can generate self-consistent equilibrium galaxy models with a two-component stellar disc and a gas disc as well as a centrally-concentrated bulge and extended dark halo. The models can…
We propose a general framework to scrutinize the performance of semi-analytic codes of galaxy formation. The approach is based on the analysis of the outputs from the model after a series of perturbations in the input parameters controlling…
The difference in stellar metallicity between red and blue galaxies with the same mass constrains the timescale over which red galaxies ceased to form stars. Here we investigate this constraint with the GalICS 2.0 semi-analytic model of…
The GalICS (Galaxies in Cosmological Simulations) semi-analytical model of hierar- chical galaxy formation is used to investigate the effects of different galactic properties, including star formation rate (SFR) and outflows, on the shape…
Semi-analytical models (SAMs) are currently the best way to understand the formation of galaxies within the cosmic dark-matter structures. While they fairly well reproduce the local stellar mass functions, correlation functions and…
How mass assembly occurs in galaxies and which process(es) contribute to this activity are among the most highly debated questions in galaxy formation theories. This has motivated our survey MASSIV of 0.9<z<1.9 star-forming galaxies…
Using semi-analytic models of galaxy formation, we investigate galaxy properties such as the Tully-Fisher relation, the B and K-band luminosity functions, cold gas contents, sizes, metallicities, and colours, and compare our results with…
We use a semianalytical approach and a CDM cosmological model to study the gravitational collapse and virialization, the structure, as well as the global and statistical properties of isolated dark matter galactic halos which emerge from…
We present a new cosmological galaxy formation model, $\nu^2$GC, as an updated version of our previous model $\nu$GC. We adopt the so-called "semi-analytic" approach, in which the formation history of dark matter halos is computed by ${\it…
Numerical simulations have become a necessary tool to describe the complex interactions among the different processes involved in galaxy formation and evolution, unfeasible via an analytic approach. The last decade has seen a great effort…
Dekel & Birnboim06 proposed that the mass-scale that separates late-type and early-type galaxies is linked to the critical halo mass for the propagation of a stable shock and showed that they could reproduce the observed bimodality scale…
We present a systematic study of stellar feedback processes in simulations of disk galaxy formation. Using a dark matter halo with properties similar to the ones for the Milky Way's stellar halo, we perform a comparison of different methods…
We describe a new, free and open source semi-analytic model of galaxy formation, Galacticus. The Galacticus model was designed to be highly modular to facilitate expansion and the exploration of alternative descriptions of key physical…
We present an accelerated calibration framework for semi-analytic galaxy formation models, demonstrated with Galacticus. Rather than fitting directly to properties such as the low-redshift stellar mass function (SMF) - which requires…
We use cosmological N-body/gasdynamical simulations that include star formation and feedback to examine the proposal that scaling laws between the total luminosity, rotation speed, and angular momentum of disk galaxies reflect analogous…
