Ever deeper and wider look-back surveys have led to a fairly robust outline of the cosmic
star-formation history, which culminated around; this period is often nicknamed “cosmic …

We introduce a new model for the structure and evolution of the gas in galactic discs. In the
model the gas is in vertical pressure and energy balance. Star formation feedback injects …

Dusty star-forming galaxies at high redshift (1< z< 3) represent the most intense star-forming
regions in the universe. Key aspects to these processes are the gas heating and cooling …

We present cosmological hydrodynamic simulations of a quasar-mass halo (M halo≈ 10
12.5 M⊙ at z= 2) that for the first time resolve gas transport down to the inner 0.1 pc …

Young stars typically form in star clusters, so the supernovae (SNe) they produce are
clustered in space and time. This clustering of SNe may alter the momentum per SN …

In order to better understand the relationship between feedback and galactic chemical
evolution, we have developed a new model for stellar feedback at grid resolutions of only a …

Galaxy mergers are believed to trigger strong starbursts. This is well assessed by
observations in the local Universe. However, the efficiency of this mechanism has poorly …

The circumgalactic medium (CGM) of star-forming dwarf galaxies plays a key role in
regulating the galactic baryonic cycle. We investigate how susceptible the CGM of dwarf …

Observations indicate that a continuous supply of gas is needed to maintain observed star
formation rates in large, discy galaxies. To fuel star formation, gas must reach the inner …

We report high-quality Hα/CO imaging spectroscopy of nine massive (log median stellar
mass= 10.65 M⊙) disk galaxies on the star-forming main sequence (henceforth SFGs), near …
