UV absorption lines and their potential for tracing the Lyman continuum escape fraction

V. Mauerhofer, A. Verhamme, J. Blaizot +4

The neutral intergalactic medium above redshift 6 is opaque to ionizing radiation, therefore one needs indirect measurements of the escape fraction of ionizing photons from galaxie…

Star-Gas Misalignment in Galaxies: II. Origins Found from the Horizon-AGN Simulation

Donghyeon J. Khim, Sukyoung K. Yi, Christophe Pichon +5

There have been many studies aiming to reveal the origins of the star-gas misalignment found in galaxies, but there still is a lack of understanding of the contribution from each f…

WISDOM project -- VI. Exploring the relation between supermassive black hole mass and galaxy rotation with molecular gas

Mark D. Smith, Martin Bureau, Timothy A. Davis +6

Empirical correlations between the masses of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and properties of their host galaxies are well-established. Among these is the correlation with the fl…

YZiCS: On the Mass Segregation of Galaxies in Clusters

Seonwoo Kim, Emanuele Contini, Hoseung Choi +5

Mass segregation, a tendency of more massive galaxies being distributed closer to the cluster center, is naturally expected from dynamical friction, but its presence is still contr…

Exemplary Merging Clusters: Weak-lensing and X-ray Analysis of the Double Radio Relic Merging Galaxy Clusters MACS 1752.0+4440 and ZWCL 1856.8+6616

Kyle Finner, Kim HyeongHan, M. James Jee +8

The investigation of merging galaxy clusters that exhibit radio relics is strengthening our understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxy clusters, the nature of dark matt…

Dark-matter-deficient dwarf galaxies form via tidal stripping of dark matter in interactions with massive companions

R. A. Jackson, S. Kaviraj, G. Martin +11

In the standard Lambda-CDM paradigm, dwarf galaxies are expected to be dark-matter-rich, as baryonic feedback is thought to quickly drive gas out of their shallow potential wells a…

Further evidence for significant luminosity evolution in supernova cosmology

Young-Wook Lee, Chul Chung, Yijung Kang +1

Supernova (SN) cosmology is based on the assumption that the corrected luminosity of SN Ia would not evolve with redshift. Recently, our age dating of stellar populations in early-…

Exploring the origin of thick disks using the NewHorizon and Galactica simulations

Minjung J. Park, Sukyoung K. Yi, Sebastien Peirani +8

Ever since a thick disk was proposed to explain the vertical distribution of the Milky Way disk stars, its origin has been a recurrent question. We aim to answer this question by i…

Introducing the NewHorizon simulation: Galaxy properties with resolved internal dynamics across cosmic time

Yohan Dubois, Ricarda Beckmann, Frédéric Bournaud +13

Hydrodynamical cosmological simulations are increasing their level of realism by considering more physical processes and having greater resolution or larger statistics. However, us…

Yonsei Evolutionary Population Synthesis (YEPS) Model. III. Surface Brightness Fluctuation of Normal and Helium-enhanced Simple Stellar Populations

Chul Chung, Suk-Jin Yoon, Hyejeon Cho +2

We present an evolutionary population synthesis model of the surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) for normal and He-enriched simple stellar populations (SSPs). While our SBF model…

Beyond halo mass: quenching galaxy mass assembly at the edge of filaments

Hyunmi Song, Clotilde Laigle, Ho Seong Hwang +6

We examine how the mass assembly of central galaxies depends on their location in the cosmic web. The HORIZON-AGN simulation is analysed at z~2 using the DISPERSE code to extract m…
