The environmental dependence of gas accretion onto galaxies: quenching satellites through starvation

Freeke van de Voort, Yannick M. Bahé, Richard G. Bower +4

Galaxies that have fallen into massive haloes may no longer be able to accrete gas from their surroundings, a process referred to as 'starvation' or 'strangulation' of satellites.…

HST Hα grism spectroscopy of ROLES: a flatter low-mass slope for the z~1 SSFR--mass relation

Riona Ramraj, David G. Gilbank, Sarah-Louise Blyth +4

We present measurements of star formation rates (SFRs) for dwarf galaxies (M*~10^8.5 Msun ) at z~1 using near-infrared slitless spectroscopy from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) b…

The Mass-Discrepancy Acceleration Relation: a Natural Outcome of Galaxy Formation in Cold Dark Matter halos

Aaron D. Ludlow, Alejandro Benitez-Llambay, Matthieu Schaller +8

We analyze the total and baryonic acceleration profiles of a set of well-resolved galaxies identified in the EAGLE suite of hydrodynamic simulations. Our runs start from the same i…

A chronicle of galaxy mass assembly in the EAGLE simulation

Yan Qu, John C. Helly, Richard G. Bower +8

We analyse the mass assembly of central galaxies in the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulations. We build merger trees to connect galaxies to their progenitors at different redshifts and…

Barred galaxies in the EAGLE cosmological hydrodynamical simulation

David G. Algorry, Julio F. Navarro, Mario G. Abadi +8

We examine the properties of barred disc galaxies in a LCDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulation from the EAGLE project. Our study follows the formation of 269 discs identified a…

Being WISE II: Reducing the Influence of Star Formation History on the Mass-to-Light Ratio of Quiescent Galaxies

Mark A. Norris, Glenn Van de Ven, Eva Schinnerer +8

Stellar population synthesis models can now reproduce the photometry of old stellar systems (age 2 Gyr) in the near-infrared (NIR) bands at 3.4 and 4.6m (WISE W1 W2 or…
