SUMMARY:Can we accurately link observed progenitor and descendant galaxy po

DESCRIPTION:Can we accurately link observed progenitor and descendant galax
 y populations? - Paul Torrey (MIT)
\nOver the past decade\, galaxy surveys
  have provided detailed information about galaxy populations out to high r
 edshift.  However\, in order to learn about how individual galaxies grow\
 , a method is required for forging progenitor/descendant links between the
  observed galaxy populations.  A common\, but knowingly flawed\, method f
 or linking galaxy populations is to assume that they evolve at a constant 
 comoving number density.  I will use the results of hydrodynamical simula
 tions to explore the evolution of galaxy populations in comoving number de
 nsity space and discuss the implications for inferring galactic mass\, siz
 e\, and morphology evolution.  I'll apply the comoving number density ana
 lysis framework to discuss the origin and fate of compact massive galaxies
  and I will end by addressing the following question:  do high redshift c
 ompact massive galaxies evolve into the cores of the present day most mass
 ive systems?
