We review the evolution of the interstellar medium in disc galaxies, and show, both analytically and by numerical 3D hydrodynamic simulations, that the disc-halo connection is an essential ingredient in understanding the evolution of star forming galaxies. Depending on the star formation rate of the underlying gaseous disc, a galactic fountain is established. If the star formation rate is sufficiently high and/or cosmic rays are well coupled to the thermal plasma, a galactic wind will be formed and lead to a secular mass loss of the galaxy. Such a wind leaves a unique imprint on the soft X-ray spectra in edge-on galaxies, with delayed recombination being one of its distinctive features. We argue that synthetic spectra, obtained from self-consistent dynamical and thermal modelling of a galactic outflow, should be treated on an equal footing as observed spectra. We show that it is thus possible to successfully fit the spectrum of the starburst galaxy NGC 3079.
We examine the properties and evolution of a simulated polar disc galaxy. This galaxy is comprised of two orthogonal discs, one of which contains old stars (old stellar disc), and the other, containing both younger stars and the cold gas (polar disc)
Within a cosmological hydrodynamical simulation, we form a disc galaxy with sub- components which can be assigned to a thin stellar disc, thick disk, and a low mass stellar halo via a chemical decomposition. The thin and thick disc populations so sel
I present a simple phenomenological model for the observed linear scaling of the stellar mass in old globular clusters (GCs) with $z=0$ halo mass in which the stellar mass in GCs scales linearly with progenitor halo mass at $z=6$ above a minimum halo
We explore the hypothesis that the classical and ultra-faint dwarf spheroidal satellites of the Milky Way have been the building blocks of the Galactic halo by comparing their [O/Fe] and [Ba/Fe] versus [Fe/H] patterns with the ones observed in Galact
Minor accretion events with mass ratio M_sat : M_host ~ 1:10 are common in the context of LCDM cosmology. We use high-resolution simulations of Galaxy-analogue systems to show that these mergers can dynamically eject disk stars into a diffuse light c
