The link between the assembly of the inner dark matter halo and the angular momentum evolution of galaxies in the EAGLE simulation

Jesus Zavala, Carlos S. Frenk, Richard Bower +6

We explore the co-evolution of the specific angular momentum of dark matter haloes and the cold baryons that comprise the galaxies within. We study over two thousand central galaxi…

The brighter galaxies reionised the Universe

Mahavir Sharma, Tom Theuns, Carlos S. Frenk +4

Hydrogen in the Universe was (re)ionised between redshifts and . The nature of the sources of the ionising radiation is hotly debated, with faint galaxi…

Galaxies in the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulation and in the Durham and Munich semi-analytical models

Quan Guo, Violeta Gonzalez-Perez, Qi Guo +12

We compare global predictions from the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulation, and two semi-analytic (SA) models of galaxy formation, L-GALAXIES and GALFORM. All three models include the…

Evidence for a change in the dominant satellite galaxy quenching mechanism at z=1

Michael L. Balogh, Sean L. McGee, Angus Mok +14

We present an analysis of galaxies in groups and clusters at , from the GCLASS and GEEC2 spectroscopic surveys. We compute a "conversion fraction" that…

The KMOS AGN Survey at High redshift (KASHz): the prevalence and drivers of ionised outflows in the host galaxies of X-ray AGN

C. M. Harrison, D. M. Alexander, J. R. Mullaney +7

We present the first results from the KMOS AGN Survey at High redshift (KASHz), a VLT/KMOS integral-field spectroscopic survey of z>0.6 AGN. We present galaxy-integrated spectra of…

The distribution of atomic hydrogen in EAGLE galaxies: morphologies, profiles, and HI holes

Yannick M. Bahe, Robert A. Crain, Guinevere Kauffmann +8

We compare the mass and internal distribution of atomic hydrogen (HI) in 2200 present-day central galaxies with M_star > 10^10 M_Sun from the 100 Mpc EAGLE Reference simulation to…
