Peng et al 2010 Mass Environment FAST (<~0.1 Gyr) èHeating the gas (transient) Turbulence by interactions, SF feedback Gas will dissipate, and SF come back èEjecting the gas present (transient) SN and AGN winds, radio jets SLOW (2-4 Gyr) èStabilising the gas: Morphological quenching, bulge formation èCutting the gas refueling: Gravity/halo quenching, Environment (harassment, strangulation, ram-pressure or tidal stripping..)

Effects of mergers (major or minor)

Davies et al 2015 (GAMA) 300 000 galaxies, 20 000 pairs SF in general enhanced in major mergers However, suppressed in minor mergers, for the smallest companion èGas heating, stripping at the benefit of the primary Pair separation SFR All Major minor Low M High M secondary

Star formation efficiency

Importance of pressure

Blitz & Rosolowsky 2006 Shi, Helou et al 2011 The surface density of stars is very important for the SF efficiency The HI to H2 transituon is favored by external pressure Σgas Σstar ΣSFR/Σgas H2/HI

Star formation triggering

Salome et al 2016 The radio jet effectively triggers star formation in the shell along the jet è positive AGN feedback However, the SF efficiency is lower than in disks èNot enough pressure èTdep larger than a Hubble time

slide-36
SLIDE 36

Role of mergers in starbursts

At low z, mergers trigger starbursts – The most energetic ULIRGs with highest SFE are all mergers (Sanders & Mirabel 1996) Mergers increase ~(1+z)4 (Lefevre et al, 2000, Lotz et al 2011) è How SFE varies with z? 60% gas 10% gas Due to high gas fraction, the number of clumps, violent instabilities, is already large in isolated galaxies at high z

Fensch et al 2017

slide-37
SLIDE 37

Gas density PDF

Fgas = 10% Fgas = 60% No difference in the PDF for high gas fraction for isolated or interacting galaxies (Fensch et al 2017) Density threshold for star formation: 30 and 105 cm-3 to have SFR = 1Mo/yr and 60Mo/yr for isolated galaxies

slide-38

Galaxy mergers with high gas content

Perret et al 2014

Conclusion

èGalaxies at high z have a larger gas fraction Whatever their position, on the MS or not èSFE vs z, small evolution on MS, larger for SB Depletion time 2 or 10 times smaller The starburst is triggered when the gas is concentrated (merger?) Diagnostics with CO excitation, Dense gas tracers (HCN, HCO+).. èSimulations show SF saturation at high z No influence of galaxy interactions, contrary to observations
