Major Dry-Mergers In Early-Type Brightest Cluster Galaxies

We search for ongoing major dry-mergers in a well selected sample of local Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) from the C4 cluster catalogue. 18 out of 515 early-type BCGs with redshift between 0.03 and 0.12 are found to be in major dry-mergers, which are selected as pairs (or triples) with r-band magnitude difference δmr < 1.5 and projected separation rp < 30 kpc, and showing signatures of inter...

Discovery of a Galaxy Responsible for a DLA System atz = 3 : 15 and a Near -

We report the detection, both in line and continuum emission, of a galaxy responsible for a damped Ly absorption (DLA) system at z = 3:15 projected 2:3 00 from QSO 2233+131. The star formation rate implied by both the Ly and restframe far-UV continuum is 7 M yr ?1. The galaxy also shows no sign of an active nucleus and has blue colors, both consistent with it being observed early in its star fo...

Properties of Early-type, Dry Galaxy Mergers and the Origin of Massive Elliptical Galaxies

The luminosity dependence of kinematical and isophotal properties of elliptical galaxies is investigated using numerical simulations of galaxy merging, combined with semi-analytical models of hierarchical structure formation. Mergers of spiral galaxies as the only formation mechanism for elliptical galaxies can neither reproduce the kinematical and photometric properties of very massive ellipti...

A Direct Measurement of Major Galaxy Mergers at Z ∼ < 3

This paper presents direct evidence for hierarchical galaxy assembly out to redshifts z ∼ 3. We identify major mergers using the model-independent CAS (concentration, asymmetry, clumpiness) physical morphological system on galaxies detected, and photometrically selected, in the WFPC2 and NICMOS Hubble Deep Field North. We specifically use the asymmetric distributions of rest-frame optical light...
