Early-type galaxy density profiles from IllustrisTNG: III. Effects on outer kinematic structure
Yunchong Wang, Shude Mao, Mark Vogelsberger +10
Early-type galaxies (ETGs) possess total density profiles close to isothermal, which can lead to non-Gaussian line-of-sight velocity dispersion (LOSVD) under anisotropic stellar or…
Quenched, bulge-dominated, but dynamically cold galaxies in IllustrisTNG and their real-world counterparts
Shengdong Lu, Dandan Xu, Sen Wang +5
Galaxy morphologies, kinematics, and stellar populations are thought to be linked to each other. However, both simulations and observations have pointed out mismatches therein. In…
UniverseMachine: Predicting Galaxy Star Formation over Seven Decades of Halo Mass with Zoom-in Simulations
Yunchong Wang, Ethan O. Nadler, Yao-Yuan Mao +3
We apply the empirical galaxy--halo connection model UniverseMachine to dark matter-only zoom-in simulations of isolated Milky Way (MW)--mass halos along with their parent cosmolog…
