Disentangling the assembly of the central and diffuse stellar components in galaxy clusters through dynamical friction and tidal stripping
Frazer R. Pearce, Steven P. Bamford, Garreth Martin +7
In galaxy clusters, it is common to conceptually distinguish the central, brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) from the more diffuse intracluster light (ICL). So far, however, this disti…
A Consistent Comparison of Intracluster Light Assembly in Simulations I. Redshift Evolution and Progenitor Galaxies
Harley J. Brown, Garreth Martin, Frazer R. Pearce +5
The tidal stripping of satellite galaxies and the stellar detritus ejected during galaxy mergers builds up a diffuse stellar component in galaxy clusters known as the intracluster…
Intracluster light as a dark matter tracer: how their spatial and kinematic relationship is shaped by satellite demographics
G Martin, F R Pearce, N A Hatch +6
We investigate how the orbital evolution and mass distribution of infalling satellite galaxies shape the phase-space and radial distributions of intracluster light (ICL) relative t…
Assembly of the Intracluster Light in the Horizon-AGN Simulation
Harley J. Brown, Garreth Martin, Frazer R. Pearce +3
The diffuse stellar component of galaxy clusters made up of intergalactic stars is termed the intracluster light (ICL). Though there is a developing understanding of the mechanisms…
