Confrontation of Double-inflationary Models with Observations
We consider double-inflationary models with two noninteracting scalar fields, a light scalar field φl with potential 1 2m 2 l φ 2 l and a heavy scalar field φh with potential λ n φh with n = 2, 4. CDM with the initial spectrum of adiabatic perturbations produced in these models is compared with observations. These models contain two more free parameters than the standard CDM model with an initi...
متن کاملReview: Understanding Galaxy Formation and Evolution with Long Wavelength Observations
It is well established in the local Universe that regions of high star-formation rate are dusty. As a result of this physical causal link, galaxies of increasing current star formation activity emit a larger proportion of their bolometric luminosity via dust absorption and re-radiation in the thermal midto far-infrared. Several new observations indicate that this trend continues back to earlier...
متن کاملExpected Properties of Primeval Galaxies and Confrontation with Existing Observations
1. Properties of low metallicity and PopIII starbursts – predictions and confrontation with existing observations Based on existing or new stellar tracks and appropriate non-LTE model atmospheres we have recently undertaken a systematic study of the expected restframe EUV, UV to optical properties of starbursts of zero and higher metal-licity (Schaerer 2002, 2003, hereafter S02, S03). These stu...
متن کاملVariability in active galactic nuclei: confrontation of models with observations
The variability of active galactic nuclei (AGN) has long held the promise of shedding light on their detailed structure, and possibly other astrophysical phenonema. Different emission mechanisms lead to different patterns of variability in flux which are in principle easily distinguishable. Recent predictions for the expected spectrum of variations for various models are now in such a form that...
متن کاملThe Star Formation Rate Intensity Distribution Function — Comparison of Observations with Hierarchical Galaxy Formation
Recently, Lanzetta et al. (2002) have measured the distribution of star formation rate intensity in galaxies at various redshifts. This data set has a number of advantages relative to galaxy luminosity functions; the effect of surface-brightness dimming on the selection function is simpler to understand, and this data set also probes the size distribution of galactic disks. We predict this func...
