Galaxy pairs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey -- XIV. Galaxy mergers do not lie on the Fundamental Metallicity Relation

Sebastián Bustamante, Sara L. Ellison, David R. Patton +1

In recent observational studies, star-forming galaxies have been shown to follow a relation often dubbed the fundamental metallicity relation (FMR). This relation links the stellar…

Spin evolution and feedback of supermassive black holes in cosmological simulations

Sebastian Bustamante, Volker Springel

It is well established that the properties of supermassive black holes and their host galaxies are correlated through scaling relations. While hydrodynamical cosmological simulatio…

The Auriga Stellar Haloes: Connecting stellar population properties with accretion and merging history

Antonela Monachesi, Facundo A. Gómez, Robert J. J. Grand +9

We examine the stellar haloes of the Auriga simulations, a suite of thirty cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical high-resolution simulations of Milky Way-mass galaxies performed with…

Merger-Induced Metallicity Dilution in Cosmological Galaxy Formation Simulations

Sebastian Bustamante, Martin Sparre, Volker Springel +1

Observational studies have revealed that galaxy pairs tend to have lower gas-phase metallicity than isolated galaxies. This metallicity deficiency can be caused by inflows of low-m…

Origin of chemically distinct discs in the Auriga cosmological simulations

Robert J. J. Grand, Sebastián Bustamante, Facundo A. Gómez +7

The stellar disk of the Milky Way shows complex spatial and abundance structure that is central to understanding the key physical mechanisms responsible for shaping our Galaxy. In…

Lessons from the Auriga discs: The hunt for the Milky Way's ex-situ disc is not yet over

Facundo A. Gómez, Robert J. J. Grand, Antonela Monachesi +7

We characterize the contribution from accreted material to the galactic discs of the Auriga Project, a set of high resolution magnetohydrodynamic cosmological simulations of late-t…
