The study of galaxy morphology can provide important information about how galaxies evolve. In this thesis, we study size and concentration of light profiles for ∼15000 star-forming galaxies (SFGs, M∗
Marquis, Andrew H. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2010)
We use photometric galaxy samples and spectral synthesis models to investigate the ability of three dramatically divergent star formation histories (SFHs) to describe the build-up of stellar mass in galaxy populations ...
Williams, Devin J. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2023-08-03)
In our current theoretical framework of galaxy formation and evolution, galaxies assemble stellar halo components through galaxy-galaxy interactions and accretion of ex-situ material. Studying this buildup of stellar haloes ...
Chen, Lingjian (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)
Satellite galaxies around massive central galaxies can provide important information about galactic environmental effect. In this thesis, we selected thousands of massive (log(Mcen/M☉) > 11.15) ...
Arcila-Osejo, Liz María (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2011)
In this work we use the latest results from the four Deep Fields of the Canada France Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey (CFHTLS) combined with the WIRCam Deep Survey (WIRDs) covering 2 .51 deg [superscript 2] to study the ...
Sorba, Robert (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2009)
In this work, we set out to test the feasibility and limitations of using the 1.6[mu]m bump as a photometric redshift indicator and selection technique using publicly available Spitzer/IRAC images in the GOODS fields. We ...
