SUMMARY:The role of gas flows in driving galaxy evolution: clues from the 
 cold interstellar medium - Amelie Saintonge (UCL)
DTSTART:20161013T150000Z

UID:TALK67526@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Simon Hodgkin
DESCRIPTION:Observations of molecular gas in distant galaxies are experien
 cing a coming-of-age\, transitioning from a "discovery" to a "survey" mode
 . New and upgraded facilities are now making it possible to survey molecul
 ar gas efficiently in large galaxy samples\, and these observations are pr
 oving to be critical in refining our general picture of galaxy evolution. 
  In this talk\, I will review recent results from the two largest surveys 
 for molecular gas in normal star-forming galaxies\, the z=0 IRAM-30m COLD 
 GASS\nsurvey and the z=1-2 IRAM-PdBI PHIBSS survey\, and show how they com
 bine to lend strong support in favour of the "equilibrium" model for galax
 y\nevolution\, under which most of galaxy evolution is regulated by gas in
 flows and outflows\, and by the efficiency of the star formation process.\
