Infall
The Infall S-Curve
Virgo Infall
Schechter 1980 Faber Jackson on 32 E’s
Virgo Infall 190+/-130 km/s
Linear Infall Model for any given galaxy
V0bs = VVirgo x
- w(cos θ –x) [1 – (x2 -2x cosθ +1) –γ/2]
x = distance to galaxy in Virgo Units
Virgo has a density contrast that falls as d-γ
w is the LG infall velocity to Virgo
d is the galaxy’s distance from Virgo
θ is the angular separation between Virgo & the galaxy
Nonlinear Model
(Schechter ’80; Silk ’74, ’77)
Treat each shell around Virgo as its own Universe with its
own average interior density and Hubble Constant and
own present density parameter . Define the
Friedmann arc parameter η
cosh-1(2/ -1) for  < 1
η=
cos-1(2/ -1) for  > 1
& define also the functions
h (η) = sin η (η – sin η)
{
ρ (η) =
(1 cos η)2
(η – sin η)2
(1 – cos η)3
for  > 1
and similar sinh functions for  < 1,
then if ηu is the present universal value of the arc and
ηg is the value for the shell or a particular galaxy g
then the ratios of the local Hubble constant and the
average interior density to the universal H and
average density are given by
h(ηg) / h(ηu) and ρ(ηg) / ρ(ηu)
and VObs = VVirgo
(
hu x – (hu –hl)cosθ – (x – cosθ) (hu – hg)
hg
and the subscript l refers to the Local Group
)
Once ρl/ρu and γ are specified, only ρu
needs to be set to determine all the h’s to also be
specified.
Determining w determines ρu and thus 
w = (hu/hl -1) VVirgo
VVirgo is the Virgo velocity corrected for infall and
any remaining peculiar LG velocity

V0bs = VHubble + VPeculiar + VGrav
we can neglect the gravitational redshifts of galaxies,
then
VPeculiar = VPattern + VRandom
and
VP/VH = -1/3 0.6 (Δ - 0.19Δ2 + …..)
where Δ = δρ/ρ, the overdensity inside

Problems ---(1) Virgo ≠ CMB
(2) Hydra-Cen ≠ CMB
(3) GA + Virgo ≠ CMB amplitude
(4) Honkin’ Pisces-Perseus on the other side
(5) Where is Convergence?
(6) Biasing
Galaxy Bias
If galaxies don’t trace the mass and the galaxy overdensity
is not the mass overdensity, one can use the simple
linear biasing model

Galaxy Evolution
Galaxies Evolve!
A. Population Evolution (Stars)
B. Gaseous Evolution
A + B = Chemical Evolution
C. Dynamical Evolution
There is strong evidence for all three
A – we see galaxies with both young and old stellar
populations and with current star formation\
B – we see infall (e.g. MW high velocity clouds) and
outflow (M33) and cooling flows
A+B we see correlations between stellar age and
stellar [Fe/H] in the MW. Abundance gradients 
in other spirals
C – we see mergers, cannibalism, interactions,
dynamical friction
Basically L, D, U-B, B-V, … L(r,θ), F(λ), Φ(L) all
change with time.
Population Evolution
Tinsley ‘68, SSB ’73, JPH ’77
and the death of the Hubble/Sandage cosmology
program …
The Flux from a galaxy at time t and in band i is
n-1
(n-j)Δt
FG(i,t) =   [ Ψ(k,j) ∫
j
k
(n-j-1)Δt
FK(i,t’) dt’ ]
where FK(i,t’) is the flux of star of type k in
bandpass i at age t’ and ∫ F is the integrated flux in
the jth timestep
This is piecewise, time-weighted summation in an AgeFlux table for stars
Ψ(k,j) is the birth rate function of stars of type k in the
jth time step
Ψ(k,j)  Ψ(m,t) = m–α e–βt
The Initial Mass Function (IMF) is often parameterized as
m–α
with α = 2.35 as the Salpeter slope
The Star Formation Rate (SFR) is often parameterized as
an exponential in time R(t) = A e–βt
or as R(t) = m0/τ e–(t/τ) τ = 1 Bruzual “C” Model
 = 1 - e– (1 Gyr / τ)

A conundrum in 1973 ….
Gaseous Emission
Continuum flux emitted vs wavelength in volume V is
Fλ = Ne N+ γλ(Te) V ergs s-1 Ǻ-1
Ne & N+ are the electron and ion density and
γλ(Te) is the continuous emission coefficient
Hβ recombination line flux is
FHβ = N(H0) [αHβeff(Te) / αE(Te)] 4.09 x 10 -12 ergs s -1
the numerical factor is the energy of one Hβ photon.
N(H0) is the number of ionizing UV photons from stars
αHβeff(Te) & αE(Te) are the effective recombination
coefficient for Hβ and the total recombination coefficient
Simplify:
1. Assume complete ionization  Stromgren Spheres from
O+B Stars (Ionization Bounded)
so
αE(Te) Ne N+ V ≈ N(H0)
thus
γ λ(Te)
Fλ =
N(H0)
αE(Te)
2. Case B recombination, so α varys by only 4% over the
range 5000 – 20000 K
3. Gaseous emission goes away as soon as the ionizing
photons go away as
τ REC ~ 1.2 x 105 (Ne)-1 years
