متن کاملDry Mergers: A Crucial Test for Galaxy Formation

Implementing an empirical shut-off mass scale for star formation, we find a nearly constant dry merger rate of ∼ 6× 10 Mpc Gyr at z 6 1 and a steep decline at larger z. Less than half of these mergers are between two galaxies that are morphologically classified as early-types,...
