— We compare recently measured rest-frame V -band luminosity functions (LFs) of galaxies at redshifts 2.0 ≤ z ≤ 3.3 to predictions of semianalytic models by De Lucia & Blaizot and Bower et al. and hydrodynamic simulations by Davé et al. The models succeed for some luminosity and redshift ranges and fail for others. A notable success is that the Bower et al. model provides a good match to the ob...

Recent galaxy formation models successfully reproduce the local luminosity function (LF) of galaxies, by invoking mechanisms to suppress star formation in lowand high-mass galaxies. As these models are optimized to fit the LF at low redshift, a crucial question is how well they predict the LF at earlier times. Here we compare recently measured rest-frame V -band LFs of galaxies at redshifts 2.0...

Zahorsky (1922) stated that he was inclined to the view that calomel was the causative agent in pink disease. However, some patients were encountered having no history of calomel ingestion, so the idea was dismissed. Lesesne Smith of South Carolina considered that mercury was involved. His belief led Davison (1938) to include mercury as the aetiological agent in the 1938 edition of his current ...
