Galaxy Formation – Is the End in Sight?
LESSONS FROM THE PAST
Zeldovich (1978): “One can be pretty sure that the problem of
galaxy formation will be solved in the 1980’s”
1990’s: unwarranted confidence from theorists & observers:
extended SF histories was an early prediction of CDM models
matching optical data only
Madau et al 1996,
Baugh et al 1998
Galaxy Formation Issues
• Do we have a complete census of star formation activity and
baryon content at all epochs? - key role of multi-wavelength
techniques
• How did the Hubble Sequence emerge at z<1 from the varied
active and irregular sources at z > 2? What are the physical
processes involved? Are the detailed models correct?
• z > 6 the final frontier: did early galaxies reionize the Universe
and what early feedback processes shape the later assembly
history?
Challenges:
• Assumed physics & is it time invariant?
(IMF, stellar pops, modes of star formation, dust laws etc)
Disclaimer
58 talks × 30 slides = 1740 slides
AND 54 posters
All carefully digested, rationalized, intercompared with results in the literature to give a
“lucid, crisp, holistic view of our present
understanding of the formation of galaxies…..”
What follows is a brief, personal, selection of key issues
Apologies if your talk/poster (or even entire field!) is not
mentioned
Theoretical Progress
• Two ways to interpret galaxy data
- numerical simulations involving gas dynamics (SPH, GRID..)
- semi-analytic models (SAM)
• Both use stellar population modeling to match masses,colors, dust
(Tonini, Henriques, Silva, Mentuch)
• This conference: (Moore, Nagamine, Gonzalez, Somerville,
Narayanan)
- Complementarity of SPH and AMR simulations
- Claimed successes: cosmic SFH, local TF relation,
morphologies of z~3 galaxies, origin of SMGs, AGN
feedback
• Controversies
- Hydro: “AGN feedback overstressed in semi-analytic models”
- SAM – need top heavy IMF to explain SMG counts

Moore
The complex gas flows into a dark matter halo with a forming disk galaxy at a
redshift z=3. R=temperature, G=metals and B=density. (Agertz, Teyssier & Moore
2009). One can clearly distinguish the cold pristine gas streams in blue connecting
directly onto the edge of the disk, the shock heated gas in red surrounding the
disk and metal rich gas in green being stripped from smaller galaxies interacting
with the hot halo and cold streams of gas. The disk and the interacting satellites
stand out since they are cold, dense and metal rich.

Mass – Metallicity Relation @ z~3
SINFONI data on LSD
and AMAZE programs:
Can argue z~3 is a
formative period where
most growth is in mass
(with only modest
increases in metal
content).
Subsequent evolution
is mostly in metallicity
F. Mannucci

Threshold Mass for Quenched Star Formation
0.4<z<0.7
• Stellar masses from Palomar Kband photometry for a large
(8000g) spectroscopic sample
(Keck DEEP2)
• The sites of star formation
appear to shift from including
high-mass galaxies at early
epochs (z~1-2) to only lowermass galaxies at later epochs.
0.5<z<1
• Using rest-frame U-B color as
a SF discriminant, stellar mass
functions reveal a threshold
stellar mass above which SF is
somehow quenched

AGN Feedback
“Radio” mode feedback
“Quasar” mode
(eg. Granato et al., 2004, Springel
et al 2005)
(eg. Croton et al 2006, Bower et
al 2006 Okamoto et al 2007)
Radio
X-rays
Temperature
Quiescent hot gas accretes onto central
BH creating outflow (radio jet) which
suppresses cooling flow and associated
SF: may explain downsizing
Supermassive BH grows via merger of
two coalescing systems; cold disk gas
is driven onto the BH: may explain tight
BH mass - bulge relation
Popular Models of AGN Feedback
•
•
•
•
Reproducing local BJ
and K luminosity
functions
Switching “radio”
feedback off leads to a
population of very bright
galaxies formed in
cooling flows
But position of the LF
break is set by the
division between rapid
and hydrostatic cooling
haloes
But does this model
reproduce evolving
mass function and
hence the production
rate of quiescent earlytypes?

importance of different FB modes is mass-dependent:
 SN-driven winds remove baryons from small-mass halos
 some process(es) prevent cooling in large-mass halos (radio jets,
clumps, conduction, cosmic ray pressure?)

1 < z < 1.4
• Theorists are finally putting
their products on the web
• At last observers can make
their own judgements on how
well CDM really works!
0.7 < z < 1
• `Past light cone’ treatment of
MS permits direct comparison
with DEEP2/Palomar stellar
mass functions
• Comparison shows AGN
feedback prescription too
effective at high z: fewer blue
galaxies than observed
Stringer et al MN 393, 1127 (2009)
0.4 < z < 0.7
But do AGN live in quenched/quenching galaxies?
Nandra et al. 2006
And Is Morphological
Evolution Synonymous with
Color Transformation?
Log fraction of Red Sequence
Red passive disks in COSMOS
• significant fraction of red sequence
are disks, particularly at low masses
• red disks are more bulge-dominated
than higher z star-forming disks
• a key intermediate phase in the
transition to present day spheroidals

The Spitzer Revolution: Stellar Masses
A modest 85cm cooled telescope can see the most
distant known objects and provide crucial data on
their assembled stellar masses and ages

age (yr)
Eyles et al (2005): to produce this mass since z~10 required 5-30 M yr-1
comparable to the ongoing SFR (6-20 M yr-1)
so should
see earlier examples if unobscured

z=7
t = 50 Myr
t = 100 Myr
t = 300 Myr
t = 500 Myr
t = 600 Myr

Age is degenerate with star formation history but can infer time-averaged
star formation rate and compare this with actual on-going star formation rate
Stellar Mass Density

• Substantial mass density at
z~5 suggesting much activity
>300 Myr earlier (z > 7)
• Mass in place is integral of
the past activity

z 5
* (z)dV (z)
• Hard to reconcile implied
past SF with that observed for
luminous dropouts but
implied SF nonethless may be
sufficient to maintain
reionization
• Perhaps early SF is in sub-L*
galaxies or is obscured

• Tantalizing fading

• Does this mark the
end of reionization
corresponding to an
increase in xHI (e.g. xHI
~0.6 at z~7)?

Lya emitting dropout sits at the center of overdense region of 4
UV brightest galaxies (~30Mpc )
Speculation: The overdense region makes a well-established
ionized bubble (>30Mpc) that allow the dropout to transmit Lya to
observers in partially neutral IGM? → Spec. follow-up
Testing Reionization via Fraction of Ly α Emitters
• Keck can probe redshift-dependent Lyα emitting fraction within continuumselected Lyman break population
• Via z~7 WFC3/IR candidates can test for reduced Lyα fraction claimed by
Subaru narrow band surveys

- 5 mirror design
- 57M Euros design underway (2007-2010)

AO impacts JWST-TMT Synergy
TMT with AO will have better
resolution than JWST (not a dream:
Keck AO has better resolution than HST)
– together with large aperture
significantly changes space-ground
synergy
First sources & cosmic reionization:
– TMT is key to locating more
abundant, fainter, smaller sources
(AO gives 10-100 gain over JWST
depending on angular size).
– JWST probes to higher z in mid-IR
