Open Access

Fig. 9.

Fate of supermassive disks (log₁₀M_⋆ 10¹¹[M_⊙]) selected at z = 0.5. The fraction of surviving disks (SD), the fraction of disks that merge with a more massive galaxy (MS), and the fraction of disks that transform to spheroidal throughout their history (SS) are shown here. Disks selected according to the thresholds $λ / \sqrt{ɛ}$ $\lambda / \sqrt {\varepsilon }$ = 0.31 and 0.71 are in red and blue, respectively.
