Merger Effects on the Spin and Shape Alignments of Galaxy Stellar, Cold and Hot Gas, and Dark Matter Components
Jounghun Lee, Jun-Sung Moon
We present a numerical evidence supporting the scenario that the peculiar alignments of the galaxy stellar spins with the major principal axes of the local tidal tensors are produc…
How the Galaxy Stellar Spins Acquire a Peculiar Tidal Connection?
Jounghun Lee, Jun-Sung Moon, Suk-Jin Yoon
We explore how the galaxy stellar spins acquire a peculiar tendency of being aligned with the major principal axes of the local tidal fields, in contrast to their DM counterparts w…
A New Perspective on the Large-Scale Tidal Effect on the Galaxy Luminosity and Morphology
Jounghun Lee
We study the mean tidal coherence of galaxy environments as a function of intrinsic luminosity determined by the absolute -band magnitude. The tidal coherence of a galaxy enviro…
Alignments of the Galaxies in and around the Virgo Cluster with the Local Velocity Shear
Jounghun Lee, Soo-Chang Rey, Suk Kim
An observational evidence is presented for the alignment between the cosmic sheet and the principal axis of the velocity shear field at the position of the Virgo cluster. The galax…
How Does the Surface Density and Size of Disk Galaxies Measured in Hydrodynamic Simulations Correlate with the Halo Spin Parameter?
Ji-hoon Kim, Jounghun Lee
Late-type low surface brightness galaxies (LSBs) are faint disk galaxies with central maximum stellar surface densities below 100 Msun/pc^2. The currently favored scenario for thei…
