When galaxy clusters collide: the impact of merger shocks on cluster gas and galaxy evolution
Promotor: Prof.dr. H.J.A. Rottgering
-
A well-established harmony in chaos: from isolated galaxies to galaxy clusters
The origin and evolution of galaxies are closely linked to many different physical phenomena.
-
Shaping Massive Galaxies: the structural evolution of galaxies across
Galaxies in the local Universe fall into two main categories of spirals and ellipticals. In this Thesis, we explore the structural evolution of galaxies into this bimodal distribution.

Star formation and aging at cosmic noon: the spectral evolution of galaxies from z=2
Promotores: Prof.dr. M. Franx, Prof.dr. P.G. van Dokkum (Yale University)

The distribution of stellar mass in galaxy clusters over cosmic time

Probing cosmic monsters: confronting hydrodynamic simulations with new observations of high-density environments
Galaxies in the Universe are distributed along the intricate framework of the Cosmic Web. Groups and clusters of galaxies comprise the densest regions in this network, and therefore, are excellent cosmic laboratories to study different aspects of galaxy evolution in extreme environments.

Resolving gas-phase metallicity in galaxies
Galaxies are environments where gas coalesces, cools, and is converted into stars. However, it remains unclear the exact mechanisms through which galaxies acquire, redistribute and lose their gas.

Metals in the diffuse gas around high-redshift galaxies
Promotores: Prof.dr. J. Schaye & Prof.dr. C. Steidel (California Institute of Technology)

Withstanding the cold: energy feedback in simulations of galaxies that include a cold interstellar medium
Understanding how galaxies form, interact, and evolve comes largely from comparing theory predictions with observational data. Numerical simulations of galaxies provide the most accurate approach to testing the theory, as they follow the non-linear evolution of gas and dark matter in great detail and…

Early death of massive galaxies in the distant universe

Star-Forming Galaxies at the Cosmic Dawn

A radio view of dust-obscured star formation
Within the field of astronomy, understanding how galaxies grow and evolve from the Big Bang to the present day is a challenging and complex question.
-
The colours of the extreme universe
This thesis presents pioneering work on the panchromatic emission of some of the most luminous galaxies in the early Universe: star forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei.
-
Distant star formation in the faint radio sky
One of the key quests in astronomy is to study the growth and evolution of galaxies across cosmic time. Radio observations provide a powerful means of studying the formation of stars and subsequent buildup of distant galaxies, in a way that is unbiased by the presence of dust.

Neutral outflows in high-redshift dusty galaxies
Outflows are crucially important for the gas budget and evolution of luminous star-forming galaxies and AGNs, with observed mass outflow rates of the same order as the star formation rate. Greater star formation and black hole growth lead to more intense feedback and outflows, resulting in self-regulated…
-
Cold gas in distant galaxies
The formation and evolution of galaxies is fundamentally driven by the formation of new stars out of cold gas.

Subsidies voor hoogwaardige onderzoeksfaciliteiten
Drie projecten met Leidse onderzoekers ontvangen van NWO een subsidie voor de bouw of vernieuwing van grootschalige onderzoeksfaciliteiten. Zij gaan werken aan elektronenmicroscopie, een X-omics initiatief en een röntgentelescoop. De projecten maken deel uit van de Nationale Roadmap voor Grootschalige…
