TalkWhat is the role of the environment in shaping early-type galaxy sizes? Did it changed in the last 10 Gyr?
Understanding galaxy evolution requires understanding the impact of cosmic time, environment, mass, and halo growth at least, because likely a combination of...

TalkWhat ULIRGs and AGNs have to hide
The great energy source of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) may be the accreting supermassive black holes of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) or intense...

TalkWhere feedback fails: clues from the dynamics of massive galaxies?
It is widely understood that galaxies use, throughout the Hubble time, only a small fraction of the baryons associated to their dark matter halos to form stars...

TalkWitnessing the Formation of Massive, Distant Galaxies in the (Sub)Millimeter Regime
In order to understand galaxy formation it is crucial to obtain sensitive observations of the emission of dust and molecular gas both of which constrain the on...
