A Bayesian approach to the semi-analytic model of galaxy formation: methodology (with Yu Lu, H.J. Mo, and Martin D. Weinberg), Astronomy Department Faculty Publication Series (2010)

We believe that a wide range of physical processes conspire to shape the observed galaxy...

On the algorithms of radiative cooling in semi-analytic models (with Yu Lu, Dusan Keres, H.J. Mo, Mark Fardal, and Martin D. Weinberg), Astronomy Department Faculty Publication Series (2010)

We study the behaviour of multiple radiative cooling algorithms implemented in six Semi-Analytic Models (SAMs)...

Beyond the Best-fit Parameter: New Insight on Galaxy Structure Decomposition From GALPHAT (with Ilsang Yoon and Martin D. Weinberg), Astronomy Department Faculty Publication Series (2009)

We introduce a novel image decomposition package, Galphat, that provides robust estimates of galaxy surface...

 

Structural Properties of Central Galaxies in Groups and Clusters (with Yicheng Guo, Daniel H. McIntosh, H. J. Mo, Frank C. van den Bosch, Martin Weinberg, Simone M. Weinmann, Anna Pasquali, and Xiaohu Yang), Astronomy Department Faculty Publication Series (2009)

Using a statistically representative sample of 911 central galaxies (CENs) from the SDSS DR4 Group...

 

Bar-driven Dark Halo Evolution: A Resolution of the Cusp-Core Controversy (with Martin D. Weinberg), Astronomy Department Faculty Publication Series (2008)

Simulations predict that the dark matter halos of galaxies should have central cusps, while those...
