Galaxy Formation

Part of the book series: Astronomy and Astrophysics Library ((AAL))

  • 914 Accesses

Summary

Evolutionary changes in the properties of all classes of extragalactic systems with cosmic epoch have been observed in all accessible astronomical wavebands. The analytic tools necessary to interpret these observations are described and then applied to the observational data. The techniques include source counts, V∕V max tests, the background radiation and fluctuations in its intensity. Each waveband provides evidence on the cosmic evolution of different components of galaxies, including their stellar populations, star formation rates and the growth of supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei. These analyses provide the information needed to put together a coherent picture of the evolution of the contents of the Universe as a whole, the subject of Chap. 19.

Notes

  1. 1.

    I have given a simple derivation of this relation in the context of ionisation losses in a plasma (Longair, 2011).
