Breaking the hierarchy of galaxy formation
Recent observations of the distant Universe suggest that much of the stellar mass of bright galaxies was already in place at z > 1. This presents a challenge for models of galaxy formation because massive halos are assembled late in the hierarchical clustering process intrinsic to the cold dark matter (CDM) cosmology. In this paper, we discuss a new implementation of the Durham semi-analytic mo...
متن کاملBreaking Through the Speed Barrier — Advancements in High-Speed Imaging
History and the discoveries of the use of ultrasound can be traced back to late 18th century, but one of the major steps toward the practical use of ultrasound may be attributed to Lewis Nixon who invented the very first sonar type listening device in 1906 as a way of detecting icebergs [1]. Rapid developments of the use of ultrasound occurred since then, particularly after world war II; initia...
متن کاملBreaking Speed and Sensitivity Limits
High-throughput imaging is needed to identify rare diseased cells among a large population of healthy cells. When combined with microfluidics, this labelfree cell identification method can revolutionize pathology, cancer screening, and potentially even stem cell therapy. Featuring optical image streaming and amplification, this new approach to imaging overcomes the technological and fundamental...
متن کاملActive Galaxy Unification
Most bright galaxies are spirals, like our own, and in the nearby well-studied cases they reveal the beautiful and intricate grand-design spiral patterns that are both familiar and appealing (e.g., Sandage & Tammann 1981). At the centre of a few out of every hundred spirals there is also an extremely bright point of light. This point can be so bright that it can outshine the entire stellar outp...
متن کاملA fossil record of galaxy encounters.
The cosmic infrared background (CIRB) is a record of a large fraction of the emission of light by stars and galaxies over time. The bulk of this emission has been resolved by the Infrared Space Observatory camera. The dominant contributors are bright starburst galaxies with redshift z approximately 0.8; that is, in the same redshift range as the active galactic nuclei responsible for the bulk o...
