TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the redshift evolution of the intrinsic alignments (IA) of galaxies in the MBII simulation and select galaxy samples above fixed subhalo mass cuts at $z = 0.6$ and trace their progenitors to $z=3$ along their merger trees.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the halo occupation distribution of black holes within a hydrodynamic cosmological simulation that directly follows black hole growth and find that the black hole occupation number can be described by the form N_BH proportional to 1+ (M_Host)^alpha where alpha evolves mildly with redshift indicating that a given mass halo at low redshift tends to host fewer BHs than at high redshift (as expected as a result of galaxy and BH mergers).

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of X-ray and Lyalpha photons on the intergalactic medium temperature was examined, and it was shown that IGM heating is always dominated by X-rays unless the Lyalpha photon contribution from stars in objects with mass M < 10^8 Msun becomes significantly enhanced with respect to the Xray contribution from BHs in the same halo.

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical analysis on Eurodollar interest rates daily data in the time period 1990-1996, is performed and compared with Libor data in 1984-1998, and the complementary cumulative distributions for the daily fluctuations at different maturity dates and the Power Spectral Density are computed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the largest volume cosmological simulation of galaxy formation to estimate the cosmic variance for current and upcoming surveys, and found that cosmic variance is larger than Poisson variance.
