Galaxy Size Evolution

Galaxy Size Evolution is a theoretical framework in astrophysics that characterizes the temporal changes in the physical scale of galaxies as a function of cosmic time, distinguishing itself from other galactic evolution models by focusing specifically on the growth and structural expansion mechanisms driven by merger histories, accretion processes, and internal dynamical feedback.
