The origin of star-gas misalignments in simulated galaxies

Catalina I. Casanueva, Claudia del P. Lagos, Nelson D. Padilla +1

We study the origin of misalignments between the stellar and star-forming gas components of simulated galaxies in the EAGLE simulations. We focus on galaxies with stellar masses $\…

Mapping Accreted Stars in Early-Type Galaxies Across the Mass-Size Plane

Thomas A. Davison, Mark A. Norris, Ryan Leaman +3

Galaxy mergers are instrumental in dictating the final mass, structure, stellar populations, and kinematics of galaxies. Cosmological galaxy simulations indicate that the most mass…

Old and New Major Mergers in the SOSIMPLE galaxy, NGC 7135

Thomas A. Davison, Harald Kuntschner, Bernd Husemann +7

The simultaneous advancement of high resolution integral field unit spectroscopy and robust full-spectral fitting codes now make it possible to examine spatially-resolved kinematic…

The diverse nature and formation paths of slow rotator galaxies in the EAGLE simulations

Claudia del P. Lagos, Eric Emsellem, Jesse van de Sande +5

We use a sample of galaxies visually classified as slow rotators (SRs) in the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulations to explore the effect of galaxy mergers on their formation, cha…

An EAGLE's View of Ex-situ Galaxy Growth

Thomas A. Davison, Mark A. Norris, Joel L. Pfeffer +2

Modern observational and analytic techniques now enable the direct measurement of star formation histories and the inference of galaxy assembly histories. However, current theoreti…
