Journal Article

We compare the properties of local spiral galaxies with the predictions of the Cole et al. semi-analytic model of hierarchical galaxy formation, in order to gain insight into the baryonic processes, such as gas cooling and star formation, that were r...

The effects of photoionization on galaxy formation - III. Environmental dependence in the luminosity function (2003)
Journal Article
Benson, A., Frenk, C., Baugh, C., Cole, S., & Lacey, C. (2003). The effects of photoionization on galaxy formation - III. Environmental dependence in the luminosity function. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 343(2), 679-691. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-8711.2003.06709.x

Using semi-analytic modelling techniques, we calculate the luminosity function of galaxy populations residing in cold dark matter haloes of different masses. We pay particular attention to the influence of the re-ionization of the Universe on the num... Read More about The effects of photoionization on galaxy formation - III.

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: the luminosity function of cluster galaxies. (2003)
Journal Article

We have determined the composite luminosity function (LF) for galaxies in 60 clusters from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. The LF spans the range −22.5 < Mmath image < −15, and is well fitted by a Schechter function with M*math image=−20.07 ± 0.07 an...

Stable clustering, the halo model and non-linear cosmological power spectra (2003)
Journal Article

We present the results of a large library of cosmological N-body simulations, using power-law initial spectra. The non-linear evolution of the matter power spectra is compared with the predictions of existing analytic scaling formulae based on the wo...

Journal Article

We develop a hybrid galaxy formation model that uses outputs from an N-body simulation to follow the merger histories (or ‘merger trees’) of dark matter haloes and treats baryonic processes, such as the cooling of gas within haloes and subsequent sta...

A comparison of gas dynamics in smooth particle hydrodynamics and semi-analytic models of galaxy formation (2003)
Journal Article

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 338(4), 913-925. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-8711.2003.06152.x

We compare the results of two techniques used to calculate the evolution of cooling gas during galaxy formation: smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations and semi-analytic modelling. We improve upon the earlier statistical comparison of Benson... Read More about A comparison of gas dynamics in smooth particle hydrodynamics and semi-analytic models of galaxy formation.

We present a comprehensive set of convergence tests which explore the role of various numerical parameters on the equilibrium structure of a simulated dark matter halo. We report on results obtained with two independent, state-of-the-art, multi-stepp... Read More about The inner structure of ΛCDM haloes - I. A numerical convergence study.
