The role of gas infall in the evolution of disc galaxies (2016)
Journal Article
Mollá, M., Díaz, Á. I., Gibson, B. K., Cavichia, O., & López-Sánchez, Á. R. (2016). The role of gas infall in the evolution of disc galaxies. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 462(2), 1329-1340. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw1723

Spiral galaxies are thought to acquire their gas through a protracted infall phase resulting in the inside-out growth of their associated discs. For field spirals, this infall occurs in the lower density environments of the cosmic web. The overall in... Read More about The role of gas infall in the evolution of disc galaxies.
