The origin of type-I profiles in cluster lenticulars: An interplay between ram pressure stripping and tidally-induced spiral migration
Adam J. Clarke, Victor P. Debattista, Rok Roškar +1
Using -body+SPH simulations of galaxies falling into a cluster, we study the evolution of their radial density profiles. When evolved in isolation, galaxies develop a type~II (d…
Imprints of radial migration on the Milky Way's metallicity distribution functions
Sarah R. Loebman, Victor P. Debattista, David L. Nidever +5
Recent analysis of the SDSS-III/APOGEE Data Release 12 stellar catalogue has revealed that the Milky Way's metallicity distribution function (MDF) changes shape as a function of ra…
Ray-tracing 3D dust radiative transfer with DART-Ray: code upgrade and public release
Giovanni Natale, Cristina C. Popescu, Richard. J. Tuffs +6
We present an extensively updated version of the purely ray-tracing 3D dust radiation transfer code DART-Ray. The new version includes five major upgrades : 1) a series of optimiza…
Quantifying the Origin and Distribution of Intracluster Light in a Fornax-like Cluster
Kathryn A. Harris, Victor P. Debattista, Fabio Governato +9
Using a cosmological -body simulation, we investigate the origin and distribution of stars in the intracluster light (ICL) of a Fornax-like cluster. In a dark matter only simula…
The imprint of clump formation at high redshift. I. A disc alpha-abundance dichotomy
Adam J. Clarke, Victor P. Debattista, David L. Nidever +10
The disc structure of the Milky Way is marked by a chemical dichotomy, with high-alpha and low-alpha abundance sequences, traditionally identified with the geometric thick and thin…
