virial radius disk origin of large turbulent velocities origin of large turbulent motions: gravitational energy of accreting gas, feedback, dynamical instabilities in clumpy disk Förster Schreiber et al. 2006, Dib, Bell & Burkert 2006, Genzel et al. 2008, Immeli et al. 2004, Bournaud et al. 2007, Dekel & Birnboim 2003, 2006, Keres et al. 2005, Ocvirk et al. 2008
Conclusions • many of the massive UV/optically selected z~2 star forming galaxies are clumpy, turbulent disks; only ~1/3 mergers (SMGs !) • evidence for growing large bulges/central disks within disks • large star forming rates can be accounted for by combination of rapid cold flows along cosmic web filaments, plus high star formation efficiency at high density • under these conditions gas rich disks go through a transient clumpy, turbulent phase with rapid internal (secular) evolution, leading to formation of central disks and bulges on a time scale ~1 Gyr
