The cosmic globular cluster formation history in the E-MOSAICS simulations
Philipp S. Joschko, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez +4
We present a comprehensive analysis of globular cluster (GC) formation and evolution across the Mpc volume of the E-MOSAICS galaxy formation simulations. Defining GCs as…
A trail of dark matter-free galaxies from a bullet dwarf collision
Pieter van Dokkum, Zili Shen, Michael A. Keim +8
The ultra-diffuse galaxies DF2 and DF4 in the NGC1052 group share several unusual properties: they both have large sizes, rich populations of overluminous and large globular cluste…
Constraining the shape of dark matter haloes with globular clusters
Marta Reina-Campos, Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez, Joel L. Pfeffer +4
We explore how diffuse stellar light and globular clusters (GCs) can be used to trace the matter distribution of their host halo using an observational methodology. For this, we us…
Using cosmological simulations and synthetic absorption spectra to assess the accuracy of observationally derived CGM metallicities
Rachel Marra, Christopher W. Churchill, Caitlin Doughty +6
We used adaptive mesh refinement hydrodynamic cosmological simulations of a Milky Way-type galaxy and a Dwarf galaxy and generated synthetic quasar absorption-line spec…
What to expect when using globular clusters as tracers of the total mass distribution in Milky Way-mass galaxies
Meghan E. Hughes, Prashin Jethwa, Michael Hilker +8
Dynamical models allow us to connect the motion of a set of tracers to the underlying gravitational potential, and thus to the total (luminous and dark) matter distribution. They a…
Where did the globular clusters of the Milky Way form? Insights from the E-MOSAICS simulations
Benjamin W. Keller, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Joel Pfeffer +5
Globular clusters (GCs) are typically old, with most having formed at z >~ 2. This makes understanding their birth environments difficult, as they are typically too distant to obse…
