Semi-analytic modelling of galaxy formation: the local Universe
Open accessAbstract
Using semi-analytic models of galaxy formation, we investigate galaxy properties such as the Tully-Fisher relation, the B- and K-band LFs, cold gas contents, sizes, metallicities and colours, and compare our results with observations of local galaxies. We investigate several different recipes for star formation and supernova feedback, including choices that are similar to the treatment by Kauffmann, White & Guiderdoni and Cole et al., as well as some new recipes. We obtain good agreement with all of the key local observations mentioned above. In particular, in our best models, we simultaneously produce good agreement with both the observed B- and K-band LFs and the I-band Tully-Fisher relation. Improved cooling and supernova feedback modelling, inclusion of dust extinction and an improved Press-Schechter model all contribute to this success. We present results for several variants of the CDM family of cosmologies, and find that models with values of Ω0≃0.3–0.5 give the best agreement with observations.

“Following the general argu- c© 0000 RAS, MNRAS 000, 000–000 ments of Dekel & Silk (1986), we now calculate the rate at which gas can escape from the disk: ṁrh, disk = 2frh,disk ǫ̇SN 〈v2 esc, disk〉 , (9) and from the halo (same expression with 〈v2esc, halo〉).”

“We neglect the modification of the inner profile of the dark matter due to the infall of the baryons, which will tend to lead to smaller disks (Blumenthal et al. 1986; Flores et al. 1993; Mo, Mao, & White 1998).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
