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…
Linking globular cluster formation at low and high redshift through the age-metallicity relation in E-MOSAICS
Danny Horta, Meghan E. Hughes, Joel L. Pfeffer +4
We set out to compare the age-metallicity relation (AMR) of massive clusters from Magellanic Cloud mass galaxies in the E-MOSAICS suite of numerical cosmological simulations with 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…
The kinematics of globular cluster populations in the E-MOSAICS simulations and their implications for the assembly history of the Milky Way
Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Marta Reina-Campos +5
We present a detailed comparison of the Milky Way (MW) globular cluster (GC) kinematics with the 25 Milky Way-mass cosmological simulations from the E-MOSAICS project. While the MW…
Kraken reveals itself -- the merger history of the Milky Way reconstructed with the E-MOSAICS simulations
J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Joel L. Pfeffer, Mélanie Chevance +6
Globular clusters (GCs) formed when the Milky Way experienced a phase of rapid assembly. We use the wealth of information contained in the Galactic GC population to quantify the pr…
Predicting accreted satellite galaxy masses and accretion redshifts based on globular cluster orbits in the E-MOSAICS simulations
Joel L. Pfeffer, Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen +4
The ages and metallicities of globular clusters (GCs) are known to be powerful tracers of the properties of their progenitor galaxies, enabling their use in determining the merger…
