The pattern speeds of vertical breathing waves

Tigran Khachaturyants, Victor P. Debattista, Soumavo Ghosh +2

We measure and compare the pattern speeds of vertical breathing, vertical bending, and spiral density waves in two isolated N-body+SPH simulations, using windowed Fourier transform…

How stars formed in warps settle into (and contaminate) thick discs

Tigran Khachaturyants, Leandro Beraldo e Silva, Victor P. Debattista

In recent years star formation has been discovered in the Milky Way's warp. These stars formed in the warp (warp stars) must eventually settle into the plane of the disc. We use an…

Box/peanut-shaped bulges in action space

Victor P. Debattista, David J. Liddicott, Tigran Khachaturyants +1

We introduce the study of box/peanut (B/P) bulges in the action space of the initial axisymmetric system. We explore where populations with different actions end up once a bar form…

Geometric properties of galactic discs with clumpy episodes

Leandro Beraldo e Silva, Victor P. Debattista, Tigran Khachaturyants +1

A scenario for the formation of the bi-modality in the chemical space [/Fe] vs [Fe/H] of the Milky Way was recently proposed in which -enhanced stars are produced early and q…

Drivers of disc tilting I: Correlations and possible drivers for Milky Way analogues

Samuel W. F. Earp, Victor P. Debattista, Andrea V. Macciò +3

The direction of the spin vectors of disk galaxies change over time. We present the tilting rate of a sample of galaxies in the NIHAO suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulatio…
