Simulating subhaloes at high redshift: merger rates, counts and types

Galaxies are believed to be in one-to-one correspondence with simulated dark matter subhaloes. We use high-resolution N-body simulations of cosmological volumes to calculate the statistical properties of subhalo (galaxy) major mergers at high redshift (z= 0.6–5). We measure the evolution of the gala...
