Implications of a contracted dark matter halo for the Milky Way's inferred virial mass

Diego Dado, Shaun T. Brown, Azadeh Fattahi +2

We investigate how reliably the global properties of Milky Way-mass dark matter haloes can be recovered from dynamical data over a limited radial range, particularly $\lesssim 30~\…

ARTEMIS emulator: exploring the effect of cosmology and galaxy formation physics on Milky Way-mass haloes and their satellites

Shaun T. Brown, Azadeh Fattahi, Ian G. McCarthy +3

We present the new ARTEMIS Emulator suite of high resolution (baryon mass of M) zoom-in simulations of Milky Way mass systems. Here, three ha…

The FLAMINGO Project: Galaxy clusters in comparison to X-ray observations

Joey Braspenning, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +10

Galaxy clusters are important probes for both cosmology and galaxy formation physics. We test the cosmological, hydrodynamical FLAMINGO simulations by comparing to observations of…

The origin of the enhanced metallicity of satellite galaxies

Yannick M. Bahe, Joop Schaye, Robert A. Crain +5

Observations of galaxies in the local Universe have shown that both the ionized gas and the stars of satellites are more metal-rich than of equally massive centrals. To gain insigh…

Predictions for the detection of Tidal Streams with Gaia using Great Circle Methods

Cecilia Mateu, Andrew Cooper, Andreea S. Font +5

The Gaia astrometric mission may offer an unprecedented opportunity to discover new tidal streams in the Galactic halo. To test this, we apply nGC3, a great-circle-cell count metho…

The EAGLE simulations of galaxy formation: the importance of the hydrodynamics scheme

Matthieu Schaller, Claudio Dalla Vecchia, Joop Schaye +5

We present results from a subset of simulations from the "Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments" (EAGLE) suite in which the formulation of the hydrodynamics sch…

Colours and luminosities of z=0.1 simulated galaxies in the EAGLE simulations

James W. Trayford, Tom Theuns, Richard G. Bower +7

We calculate the colours and luminosities of redshift z = 0.1 galaxies from the EAGLE simulation suite using the GALAXEV population synthesis models. We take into account obscurati…

Evolution of galaxy stellar masses and star formation rates in the EAGLE simulations

M. Furlong, R. G. Bower, T. Theuns +9

We investigate the evolution of galaxy masses and star formation rates in the Evolution and Assembly of Galaxies and their Environment (EAGLE) simulations. These comprise a suite o…

The EAGLE project: Simulating the evolution and assembly of galaxies and their environments

Joop Schaye, Robert A. Crain, Richard G. Bower +19

We introduce the Virgo Consortium's EAGLE project, a suite of hydrodynamical simulations that follow the formation of galaxies and black holes in representative volumes. We discuss…
