Galaxy evolution in the post-merger regime. IV -- The long-term effect of mergers on galactic stellar mass growth and distribution
Sara L. Ellison, Leonardo Ferreira
Galaxy mergers are known to trigger bursts of central star formation, which should therefore lead to stellar mass growth in their inner regions. However, observational measurements…
Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations - IX: Mini mergers trigger AGN in cosmological simulations
Shoshannah Byrne-Mamahit, Sara L. Ellison, David R. Patton +3
Galaxy mergers are transformative events that can cause gaseous inflows capable of triggering active galactic nuclei (AGN). Previous studies of AGN in simulations have mainly focus…
UNIONS: The Ultraviolet Near-Infrared Optical Northern Survey
Stephen Gwyn, Alan W. McConnachie, Jean-Charles Cuillandre +86
The Ultraviolet Near-Infrared Optical Northern Survey (UNIONS) is a "collaboration of collaborations" that is using the Canada-France-Hawai'i Telescope, the Pan-STARRS telescopes,…
Metallicity Gradients in Modern Cosmological Simulations I: Tension Between Smooth Stellar Feedback Models and Observations
Alex M. Garcia, Paul Torrey, Aniket Bhagwat +14
The metallicity of galaxies, and its variation with galactocentric radius, provides key insights into the formation histories of galaxies and the physical processes driving their e…
Unions with UNIONS: Using galaxy-galaxy lensing to probe galaxy mergers
Isaac Cheng, Jack Elvin-Poole, Michael J. Hudson +12
We use galaxy-galaxy lensing to investigate how the dark matter (DM) haloes and stellar content of galaxies with and $10 \leq \log_{10}(M_\star/\mathrm{M}_…
Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations -- VIII: Pericentric star formation rate enhancements are driven both by increased fuelling and efficiency
Lawrence Faria, David R. Patton, Stéphane Courteau +2
Using the TNG100-1 cosmological simulations, we explore how galaxy properties, such as specific star formation rate (), gas fraction ($\rm f_{gas} \,= \, M_{\rm H…
