Sensitivity of Halo Shape Measurements
Moritz S. Fischer, Lucas M. Valenzuela
Shape measurements of galaxies and galaxy clusters are widespread in the analysis of cosmological simulations. But the limitations of those measurements have been poorly investigat…
Planes of Satellite Galaxies in the Magneticum Pathfinder Simulations
Pascal U. Förster, Rhea-Silvia Remus, Klaus Dolag +3
Planes of satellites are observed around many galaxies. However, these observations are still considered a point of tension for the CDM paradigm. We use the fully hydrodynamical…
A stream come true: Connecting tidal tails, shells, streams, and planes with galaxy kinematics and formation history
Lucas M. Valenzuela, Rhea-Silvia Remus
The rapidly improving quality and resolution of both low surface brightness observations and cosmological simulations of galaxies enables one to address the important question how…
Intrinsic shapes of Brightest Cluster Galaxies
Stefano de Nicola, Roberto P. Saglia, Jens Thomas +5
We discuss the statistical distribution of galaxy shapes and viewing angles under the assumption of triaxiality by deprojecting observed Surface Brightness (SB) profiles of 56 Brig…
