Towards the next generation of empirical galaxy formation models

Le 20 novembre 2014 De 12h30 à 13h30 Benjamin MOSTER Cambridge University The field of galaxy formation is on the cusp of a tide of new data. To understand these in the context of an evolutionary picture, we need models that interpret the observed trends. Hydrodynamical...

Data Mining of the Large-Scale Structure from Galaxy Surveys

Le 13 novembre 2014 De 11h00 à 12h00 Francesco KITAURA AIP Potsdam The present-day mass density field contains information about the fundamental pillars of cosmology. It is a mixture and cross-talk between the primordial density fluctuations, the law of gravity and the value...

Measuring relativistic effects in galaxies and clusters

Le 10 novembre 2014 De 10h00 à 11h00 HongSheng ZHAO University of St Andrews Relativistic effects are generally second order or higher in galaxies and clusters. Here I discuss how modern instrumentation and large data are making such measurements feasible. These measurements...

How do nuclear star clusters in early-type galaxies form?

Le 28 octobre 2014 De 14h00 à 15h00 Mariya LYUBENOVA Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, Groningen Observations made over the last few decades have shown that nucleation is a common phenomenon in the centres of all types of galaxies, with a minimum 65% hosting nuclear star...

Spiral Arms in Numerical Simulations of Disc Galaxies

Le 10 octobre 2014 De 10h30 à 12h00 Daisuke KAWATA Mullard Space Science Laboratory Recently numerical simulation studies, including Grand, Kawata & Cropper (2012ab, 2013), are claiming that the long-lived spiral arms suggested by the classical density wave theory of Lin...
