The MillenniumTNG Project: Inferring cosmology from galaxy clustering with accelerated N-body scaling and subhalo abundance matching

Sergio Contreras, Raul E. Angulo, Volker Springel +11

We introduce a novel technique for constraining cosmological parameters and galaxy assembly bias using non-linear redshift-space clustering of galaxies. We scale cosmological N-bod…

SHAM through the lens of a hydrodynamical simulation

Ginevra Favole, Antonio D. Montero-Dorta, M. Celeste Artale +3

We use the IllustrisTNG100 hydrodynamical simulation to study the dependence of the galaxy two-point correlation function on a broad range of secondary subhalo and galactic propert…

The assembly bias of emission line galaxies

Esteban Jimenez, Nelson Padilla, Sergio Contreras +3

The next generation of spectroscopic surveys will target emission-line galaxies (ELGs) to produce constraints on cosmological parameters. We study the large scale structure traced…

Dissecting and Modelling Galaxy Assembly Bias

Xiaoju Xu, Idit Zehavi, Sergio Contreras

Understanding the galaxy-halo connection is fundamental for contemporary models of galaxy clustering. The extent to which the haloes' assembly history and environment impact galaxy…

A flexible modelling of galaxy assembly bias

Sergio Contreras, Raul Angulo, Matteo Zennaro

We use the {\sc Illustris TNG300} magneto-hydrodynamic simulation, the {\sc SAGE} semi-analytical model, and the subhalo abundance matching technique (SHAM) to examine the diversit…

The better half -- Asymmetric star-formation due to ram pressure in the EAGLE simulations

P. Troncoso-Iribarren, N. Padilla, C. Santander +4

We use the EAGLE simulations to study the effects of the intra-cluster medium (ICM) on the spatially resolved star-formation activity in galaxies. We study three cases of galaxy as…
