Galaxy Formation: Bayesian History Matching for the Observable Universe
Understanding the evolution of the Universe from the Big Bang to the current day is the fundamental goal of cosmology. A major part of this is the problem of structure formation: understanding the formation, growth and subsequent evolution of galaxies in the presence of Dark Matter. The world leading Galform group, based at the Institute of Computational Cosmology, Durham University, has develo...
متن کاملPanning and Zooming the Observable Universe with Subsequence-Matching Trees
We introduce a web-based, client-server computing infrastructure to assist the interactive navigation of large-scale astronomy observations. Large image datasets are partitioned into a spatial index structure that allows prefix-matching of spatial objects. In conjunction with pixel-based overlays, this approach allows fetching, displaying, panning and zooming of gigabit panoramas of the sky in ...
متن کاملThe Star-formation History of the Universe
Many authors have attempted to model the star formation history of the universe (eg Cole et al 1994, Pei and Fall 1995) or equivalently the evolution of the starburst galaxy population (eg Franceschini et al 1991, 1994, 1997, Blain and Longair 1993, Pearson and Rowan-Robinson 1996, Guiderdoni et al 1998, Dwek et al 1998, Blain et al 1999). Most of these studies explore a small range of models d...
متن کاملThe Star Formation History of the Universe
Strong constraints on the cosmic star formation history (SFH) have recently been established using ultraviolet and far-infrared measurements, refining the results of numerous measurements over the past decade. Taken together, the most recent and robust data indicate a compellingly consistent picture of the SFH out to redshift z ≈ 6, with especially tight constraints for z < 1. There have also b...
متن کاملDisk Galaxy Formation in a Λcdm Universe
We describe hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation in a Λ cold dark matter (CDM) cosmology performed using a subresolution model for star formation and feedback in a multiphase interstellar medium (ISM). In particular, we demonstrate the formation of a well-resolved disk galaxy. The surface brightness profile of the galaxy is exponential, with a B-band central surface brightness of 21.0...
