Satellite galaxy number density profiles in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (2012)
Journal Article

We study the spatial distribution of satellite galaxies around isolated primaries using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectroscopic and photometric galaxy catalogues. We select isolated primaries from the spectroscopic sample and search for pot... Read More about Satellite galaxy number density profiles in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.

The contribution of star-forming galaxies to fluctuations in the cosmic background light (2012)
Journal Article

Star-forming galaxies which are too faint to be detected individually produce intensity fluctuations in the cosmic background light. This contribution needs to be taken into account as a foreground when using the primordial signal to constrain cosmol...

The journey of QSO haloes from z ∼ 6 to the present (2012)
Journal Article
Angulo, R., Springel, V., White, S., Cole, S., Jenkins, A., Baugh, C., & Frenk, C. (2012). The journey of QSO haloes from z ∼ 6 to the present. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 425(4), 2722-2730. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.21783.x

We apply a recently developed scaling technique to the Millennium-XXL, one of the largest cosmological N-body simulations carried out to date (3 × 1011 particles within a cube of volume ∼70 Gpc3). This allows us to investigate the cosmological parame... Read More about The journey of QSO haloes from z ∼ 6 to the present.

Principles of supernova-driven winds (2012)
Journal Article

The formation of galaxies is regulated by a balance between the supply of gas and the rate at which it is ejected. Traditional explanations of gas ejection equate the energy required to escape the galaxy or host halo to an estimate for the energy yie... Read More about Principles of supernova-driven winds.

The evolution of active galactic nuclei across cosmic time : what is downsizing? (2012)
Journal Article
Fanidakis, N., Baugh, C., Benson, A., Bower, R., Cole, S., Done, C., …del P. Lagos, C. (2012). The evolution of active galactic nuclei across cosmic time : what is downsizing?. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 419(4), 2797-2820. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.19931.x

We use a coupled model of the formation and evolution of galaxies and black holes (BHs) to study the evolution of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in a cold dark matter universe. The model is embedded in the galaxy formation code GALFORM and predicts th... Read More about The evolution of active galactic nuclei across cosmic time : what is downsizing?.
