Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): spectroscopic analysis
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
The Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey is a multiwavelength photometric and spectroscopic
survey, using the AAOmega spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope to obtain
spectra for up to _ 300 000 galaxies over ...
Evolution of star formation in the UKIDSS ultra deep survey field - I. Luminosity functions and cosmic star formation rate out of z = 1.6
(OUP, 2013)
We present new results on the cosmic star formation history in the SXDS-UDS field out to
z = 1.6. We compile narrow-band data from the Subaru Telescope and the Visible and Infrared
Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) ...
Galaxy correlations and the BAO in a void universe: structure formation as a test of the Copernican Principle
(IOP Science, 2013)
A suggested solution to the dark energy problem is the void model, where accelerated expansion is
replaced by Hubble-scale inhomogeneity. In these models, density perturbations grow on a radially
inhomogeneous background. ...
Cosmology on ultralarge scales with intensity mapping of the neutral hydrogen 21 cm emission: limits on primodial non-gaussianity
(American Physical Society, 2013)
The large-scale structure of the Universe supplies crucial information about the physical processes
at play at early times. Unresolved maps of the intensity of 21 cm emission from neutral hydrogen HI at redshifts z ~ 1 − ...
A deep search for faint galaxies associated with very low-redshift C iv absorbers: A case with cold-accretion characteristics
(The American Astronomical Society, 2013)
Studies of QSO absorber–galaxy connections are often hindered by inadequate information on whether faint/dwarf
galaxies are located near the QSO sight lines. To investigate the contribution of faint galaxies to QSO ...
Isothermal dust models of Herschel-ATLAS galaxies
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
We use galaxies from the Herschel-ATLAS survey, and a suite of ancillary simulations based on an isothermal dust model, to study our ability to determine the effective dust temperature, luminosity and emissivity index of ...
Black hole - galaxy correlations without self-regulation
(American Astronomical Society, 2013)
Recent models of black hole growth in a cosmological context have forwarded a paradigm in which the growth
is self-regulated by feedback from the black hole itself. Here we use cosmological zoom simulations of galaxy
formation ...
The COS-Halos survey: Rationale, design and a census of circumgalactic neutral hydrogen
(IOP Publishing, 2013)
We present the design and methods of the COS-Halos survey, a systematic investigation of the gaseous halos of
44 z = 0.15–0.35 galaxies using background QSOs observed with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph aboard the
Hubble ...
The slow flow model of dust eflux in local star-forming galaxies
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
We develop a dust efflux model of radiation pressure acting on dust grains which
successfully reproduces the relation between stellar mass, dust opacity and star forma-
tion rate observed in local star-forming galaxies. ...
The high-ion content and kinematics of low-redshift lyman limit systems
(The American Astronomical Society, 2013)
We study the high-ion content and kinematics of the circumgalactic medium around low-redshift galaxies using a sample of 23 Lyman limit systems (LLSs) at 0.08 < z < 0.93 observed with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on ...
