Predictions for the SKA from hierarchical galaxy formation models (2004)
Journal Article
Baugh, C., Lacey, C., Frenk, C., Benson, A., Cole, S., Granato, G., …Bressan, A. (2004). Predictions for the SKA from hierarchical galaxy formation models. New Astronomy Reviews, 48(11-12), 1239-1246. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.newar.2004.09.008

There is now overwhelming evidence to suggest that structure in the Universe formed hierarchically. The development of collapsed structures in the dark matter due to gravitational instability has been studied extensively using numerical simulations a...

Heating of galactic discs by infalling satellites (2004)
Journal Article
Benson, A., Lacey, C., Frenk, C., Baugh, C., & Cole, S. (2004). Heating of galactic discs by infalling satellites. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 351(4), 1215-1236. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2004.07870.x

We develop an analytic model to calculate the rate at which galaxy discs are heated by dark matter substructures orbiting in their haloes. The model takes into account the internal structure, mass function and accretion rate of satellites expected in... Read More about Heating of galactic discs by infalling satellites.
