NIHAO V: Too big doesn't fail -- reconciling the conflict between LCDM predictions and the circular velocities of nearby field galaxies

Aaron A. Dutton, Andrea V. Macciò, Jonas Frings +4

We compare the half-light circular velocities, V_{1/2}, of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group to the predicted circular velocity curves of galaxies in the NIHAO suite of LCDM simula…

The response of dark matter haloes to elliptical galaxy formation: a new test for quenching scenarios

Aaron A. Dutton, Andrea V. Macciò, Gregory S. Stinson +3

We use cosmological hydrodynamical zoom-in simulations with the SPH code gasoline of four haloes of mass M_{200} \sim 10^{13}\Msun to study the response of the dark matter to ellip…

NIHAO IV: Core creation and destruction in dark matter density profiles across cosmic time

Edouard Tollet, Andrea V. Macciò, Aaron A. Dutton +10

We use the NIHAO simulations to investigate the effects of baryonic physics on the time evolution of Dark Matter central density profiles. The sample is made of indepe…

Effects of Coupled Dark Energy on the Milky Way and its Satellites

Camilla Penzo, Andrea V. Macciò, Marco Baldi +2

We present the first numerical simulations in coupled dark energy cosmologies with high enough resolution to investigate the effects of the coupling on galactic and sub-galactic sc…
