The merger-driven evolution of massive galaxies

Robaina, Aday R; Bell, Eric F; van der Wel, Arjen; Somerville, Rachel S; Skelton, Rosalind E; McIntosh, D H; Meisenheimer, Klaus; Wolf, Christian

Description

We explore the rate and impact of galaxy mergers on the massive galaxy population using the amplitude of the two-point correlation function on small scales for M* > 5×1010M⊙ galaxies from the COSMOS and COMBO-17 surveys. Using a pair fraction derived f
