The simulations in this section explicitly include processes related to the formation and evolution of galaxies. In particular, they include detailed phenomenological modelling of gas cooling, of star formation, of stellar population evolution, of feedback from massive stars and supernovae, and of galaxy merging using recipes outlined in Kauffmann et al (1999). In some cases, chemical evolution of the interstellar medium of galaxies and of the hot intergalactic medium is also included.
