The dependence of Circumgalactic Medium properties on halo assembly histories in the IllustrisTNG simulations
Yiyuan Zhang, Houzun Chen, Xi Kang
While halo mass is the dominant factor shaping the embedded galaxies, the properties of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) also depend on halo assembly history. To investigate this, w…
Feedback-Free Star Formation in Clusters within a Galaxy Simulated at High Resolution in Cosmic Dawn
Hou-Zun Chen, Zhaozhou Li, Avishai Dekel +3
We perform a cosmological zoom-in simulation of a massive galaxy ( at ) using the GIZMO code. By employing resolution and a $3.4\…
A Vertically Orientated Dark Matter Halo Marks a Flip of the Galactic Disk
Ling Zhu, Runsheng Cai, Xi Kang +5
Unveiling the 3D shape of the Milky Way's dark-matter halo is critical to understanding its formation history. We created an innovative dynamical model with minimal assumptions on…
NIHAO-RiNG: A Comparison of Simulated Disc Galaxies from GASOLINE and GIZMO
Hou-Zun Chen, Xi Kang, Andrea V. Macciò +2
We utilize the public GIZMO code to simulate twelve disc galaxies from the NIHAO suite simulated with the GASOLINE code, then compare the corresponding galaxies in the two simulati…
Theoretical Predictions of Colors and Metallicity of the Intra-Cluster Light
E. Contini, S. K. Yi, X. Kang
We study colors and metallicities of the Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) and Intra-Cluster Light (ICL) in galaxy groups and clusters, as predicted by a semi-analytic model of gal…
A study on the multicolour evolution of Red Sequence galaxy populations: insights from hydrodynamical simulations and semi-analytical models
A. D. Romeo, Xi Kang, E. Contini +5
By means of our own cosmological-hydrodynamical simulation and semi-analytical model we studied galaxy population properties in clusters and groups, spanning over 10 different band…
