Zabludoff and Zaritsky

Some of my unbloggable (consult rules at right) activity of the last year has led to the arrival of Ann Zabludoff (Arizona) and Dennis Zaritsky (Arizona) at NYU for the next nine months. Today they both gave informal lunch talks, presenting some of their research on galaxy evolution. Ann noted her result that the differences between the disk-dominated and bulge-dominated populations has to be explained as a difference in bulges, not disks. Dennis showed that there are clear relationships between the orbit and star-formation history of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds.
