Realistic mock observations of the sizes and stellar mass surface densities of massive galaxies in FIRE-2 zoom-in simulations
Tyler Parsotan, Rachel Cochrane, Chris Hayward +5
The galaxy size-stellar mass and central surface density-stellar mass relationships are observational constraints on galaxy formation models. However, inferring the physical size o…

A dark matter profile to model diverse feedback-induced core sizes of CDM haloes
Alexandres Lazar, James S. Bullock, Michael Boylan-Kolchin +11
We analyze the cold dark matter density profiles of 54 galaxy halos simulated with FIRE-2 galaxy formation physics, each resolved within of the halo virial radius. These ha…
