The APOSTLE simulations: solutions to the Local Group's cosmic puzzles

Till Sawala, Carlos S. Frenk, Azadeh Fattahi +13

The Local Group of galaxies offer some of the most discriminating tests of models of cosmic structure formation. For example, observations of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda satel…

Dark matter annihilation radiation in hydrodynamic simulations of Milky Way haloes

Matthieu Schaller, Carlos S. Frenk, Tom Theuns +8

We obtain predictions for the properties of cold dark matter annihilation radiation using high resolution hydrodynamic zoom-in cosmological simulations of Milky Way-like galaxies (…

The APOSTLE project: Local Group kinematic mass constraints and simulation candidate selection

Azadeh Fattahi, Julio F. Navarro, Till Sawala +8

We use a large sample of isolated dark matter halo pairs drawn from cosmological N-body simulations to identify candidate systems whose kinematics match that of the Local Group of…

Planes of satellite galaxies: when exceptions are the rule

Marius Cautun, Sownak Bose, Carlos S. Frenk +5

The detection of planar structures within the satellite systems of both the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) has been reported as being in stark contradiction to the predictions…

The Copernicus Complexio: a high-resolution view of the small-scale Universe

Wojciech A. Hellwing, Carlos S. Frenk, Marius Cautun +5

We introduce Copernicus Complexio (COCO), a high-resolution cosmological N-body simulation of structure formation in the model. COCO follows an approximately spheric…

The unexpected diversity of dwarf galaxy rotation curves

Kyle A. Oman, Julio F. Navarro, Azadeh Fattahi +9

We examine the circular velocity profiles of galaxies in ΛCDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulations from the EAGLE and LOCAL GROUPS projects and compare them with a compilation o…
