The Dark Matter Halos of Moderate Luminosity X-ray AGN as Determined from Weak Gravitational Lensing and Host Stellar Masses
A. Leauthaud, A. J. Benson, F. Civano +9
Understanding the relationship between galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei (AGN) and the dark matter halos in which they reside is key to constraining how black-hole fueling is…
Trends in Dwarf Early-Type Kinematics with Cluster-centric Radius Driven By Tidal Stirring
A. J. Benson, E. Toloba, L. Mayer +2
We model the dynamics of dwarf early-type galaxies in the Virgo cluster when subject to a variety of environmental processes. We focus on how these processes imprint trends in dyna…
Stellar Kinematics and Structural Properties of Virgo Cluster Dwarf Early-Type Galaxies from the SMAKCED Project III. Rotation versus Pressure Support
E. Toloba, P. Guhathakurta, A. Boselli +17
We analyze the stellar kinematics of 39 dwarf early-type galaxies (dEs) in the Virgo cluster. Based on the specific stellar angular momentum lambda_e and the ellipticity, we find 1…
Metal distribution in the ICM - a comprehensive numerical study of twelve galaxy clusters
Harald Höller, Josef Stöckl, Andrew Benson +4
We present a simulation setup for studying the dynamical and chemical evolution of the intracluster medium (ICM) and analyze a sample of 12 galaxy clusters that are diverse both ki…
Galaxy Formation as a Cosmological Tool. I: The Galaxy Merger History as a Measure of Cosmological Parameters
Christopher J. Conselice, Asa F. L. Bluck, Alice Mortlock +2
As galaxy formation and evolution over long cosmic time-scales depends to a large degree on the structure of the universe, the assembly history of galaxies is potentially a powerfu…
