VINTERGATAN-GM: The cosmological imprints of early mergers on Milky-Way-mass galaxies
Martin P. Rey, Oscar Agertz, Tjitske K. Starkenburg +6
We present a new suite of cosmological zoom-in hydrodynamical ( spatial resolution) simulations of Milky-Way mass galaxies to study how a varying mass rat…
Code Comparison in Galaxy Scale Simulations with Resolved Supernova Feedback: Lagrangian vs. Eulerian Methods
Chia-Yu Hu, Matthew C. Smith, Romain Teyssier +8
We present a suite of high-resolution simulations of an isolated dwarf galaxy using four different hydrodynamical codes: {\sc Gizmo}, {\sc Arepo}, {\sc Gadget}, and {\sc Ramses}. A…
walter: A Tool for Predicting Resolved Stellar Population Observations with Applications to the Roman Space Telescope
Lachlan Lancaster, Sarah Pearson, Benjamin F. Williams +5
Studies of resolved stellar populations in the Milky Way and nearby galaxies reveal an amazingly detailed and clear picture of galaxy evolution. Within the Local Group, the ability…
Preparing for low surface brightness science with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory: characterisation of tidal features from mock images
G. Martin, A. E. Bazkiaei, M. Spavone +50
Tidal features in the outskirts of galaxies yield unique information about their past interactions and are a key prediction of the hierarchical structure formation paradigm. The Ve…
Hot-mode accretion and the physics of thin-disk galaxy formation
Zachary Hafen, Jonathan Stern, James Bullock +16
We use FIRE simulations to study disk formation in z~0, Milky Way-mass galaxies, and conclude that a key ingredient for the formation of thin stellar disks is the ability for accre…
