We study the atomic (H I) and molecular hydrogen (H2) contents of early-type galaxies (ETGs) and their gas sources using the GALFORM model of galaxy formation. This model uses a self-consistent calculation of the star formation rate, which depends on... Read More about The origin of the atomic and molecular gas contents of early-type galaxies – I.
