Measuring the masses of galaxies as a function of redshift is perhaps one of the most challenging open issues in current astronomical research. The evolution of the baryonic and dark matter components of galaxies is not only a critical test of the hierarchical formation paradigm, but ultimately also provides new clues on the complex interplay between star formation, the cooling and heating of gas and galaxy merging processes. This book reviews current techniques to measure the baryonic (stellar) and dark masses of nearby galaxies, and focusses on ongoing attempts to measure these same…mehr
Measuring the masses of galaxies as a function of redshift is perhaps one of the most challenging open issues in current astronomical research. The evolution of the baryonic and dark matter components of galaxies is not only a critical test of the hierarchical formation paradigm, but ultimately also provides new clues on the complex interplay between star formation, the cooling and heating of gas and galaxy merging processes. This book reviews current techniques to measure the baryonic (stellar) and dark masses of nearby galaxies, and focusses on ongoing attempts to measure these same quantities in galaxies at higher and higher redshifts. It also gives room to future perspectives, with special emphasis on new survey projects and satellite missions.
Ralf Bender, geb. 1980, ist seit 2009 Sport- und Mathematiklehrer. Er hat an der TU Karlsruhe studiert und anschließend an der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität in Mainz sowie an der Eberhard-Karls-Universität in Tübingen promoviert. Er arbeitete von 2006 bis 2007 als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Institut für Sportwissenschaften in Mainz. Als Stabhochspringer gehörte er jahrelang dem erweiterten nationalen Spitzenbereich an. Zudem nahm er als Zehnkämpfer am Länderkampf USA gegen Deutschland teil und verfügt über langjährige Erfahrungen in der Trainerausbildung.
