Modelling galaxy merger time-scales and tidal destruction (2017)
Journal Article
Simha, V., & Cole, S. (2017). Modelling galaxy merger time-scales and tidal destruction. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 472(2), 1392-1400. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stx1942

We present a model for the dynamical evolution of subhaloes based on an approach combining numerical and analytical methods. Our method is based on tracking subhaloes in an N-body simulation up to the latest epoch that it can be resolved, and applyin...

Cosmological constraints from applying SHAM to rescaled cosmological simulations (2013)
Journal Article
Simha, V., & Cole, S. (2013). Cosmological constraints from applying SHAM to rescaled cosmological simulations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 436(2), 1142-1151. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt1643

We place constraints on the matter density of the Universe and the amplitude of clustering using measurements of the galaxy two-point correlation function from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We generate model predictions for different cosmologi... Read More about Cosmological constraints from applying SHAM to rescaled cosmological simulations.
