Recent observations and simulations indicate substantial evolution in the properties of galaxies with time, wherein rotationally supported and steady thin discs (like those frequently observed in the local Universe) emerge from galaxies that are clum...

The effects of local stellar radiation and dust depletion on non-equilibrium interstellar chemistry (2022)
Journal Article

Interstellar chemistry is important for galaxy formation, as it determines the rate at which gas can cool, and enables us to make predictions for observable spectroscopic lines from ions and molecules. We explore two central aspects of modelling the... Read More about The effects of local stellar radiation and dust depletion on non-equilibrium interstellar chemistry.
