Observing Merger Trees in a New Light

Rhys J. J. Poulton, Aaron S. G. Robotham, Chris Power +1

Merger trees harvested from cosmological -body simulations encode the assembly histories of dark matter halos over cosmic time, and are a fundamental component of semi-analytica…

The Three Hundred project: a large catalogue of theoretically modelled galaxy clusters for cosmological and astrophysical applications

Weiguang Cui, Alexander Knebe, Gustavo Yepes +34

We introduce the THE THREE HUNDRED project, an endeavour to model 324 large galaxy clusters with full-physics hydrodynamical re-simulations. Here we present the data set and study…

Shark: introducing an open source, free and flexible semi-analytic model of galaxy formation

Claudia del P. Lagos, Rodrigo J. Tobar, Aaron S. G. Robotham +4

We present a new, open source, free semi-analytic model (SAM) of galaxy formation, Shark, designed to be highly flexible and modular, allowing easy exploration of different physica…

Introducing a new, robust galaxy finder algorithm for simulations

Rodrigo Cañas, Pascal J. Elahi, Charlotte Welker +4

Identifying galaxies in hydrodynamical simulations is a difficult task, particularly in regions of high density such as galaxy groups and clusters. We present a new scale-free shap…

Jeans that fit: weighing the mass of the Milky Way analogues in the universe

Prajwal R. Kafle, Sanjib Sharma, Aaron S. G. Robotham +2

The spherical Jeans equation is a widely used tool for dynamical study of gravitating systems in astronomy. Here we test its efficacy in robustly weighing the mass of Milky Way ana…

SURFS: Riding the waves with Synthetic UniveRses For Surveys

Pascal J. Elahi, Charlotte Welker, Chris Power +4

We present the Synthetic UniveRses For Surveys ({\sc surfs}) simulations, a set of N-body/Hydro simulations of the concordance Cold Dark Matter (\LCDM) cosmology. These simulat…
