The emergence of the faint nature of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulation

Luis Enrique Pérez-Montaño, Bernardo Cervantes Sodi, Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez +2

We employ a simulated sample of galaxies drawn from the IllustrisTNG suite to study the emergence of the diffuse and extended nature of low surface brightness galaxies…

Inferring the dark matter distribution of massive galaxy clusters from deep optical observations: insights from the TNG300 simulation

Aditya Manuwal, Vladimir Avila-Reese, Daniel Montenegro-Taborda +2

Extragalactic stars within galaxy clusters contribute to the intracluster light (ICL), which is thought to be a promising tracer of the underlying dark matter (DM) distribution. In…

Photometric analysis of the intracluster light in the TNG300 simulation and wide-field observations

Daniel Montenegro-Taborda, Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez, Vladimir Avila-Reese +5

We present a robust, apples-to-apples comparison between the photometric properties of the intracluster light (ICL) in the TNG300 magnetohydrodynamic cosmological simulation and th…

The stellar mass composition of galaxy clusters and dependencies on dark matter halo properties

Daniel Montenegro-Taborda, Vladimir Avila-Reese, Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez +2

We analyze 700 clusters from the TNG300 hydrodynamical simulation ( at (z=0)) to examine the radial stellar mass distribution of their centra…

The mass and redshift dependence of halo star clustering

Zhenlin Tan, Wenting Wang, Jiaxin He +5

We adopt the two point correlation function (2PCF) as a statistical tool to quantify the spatial clustering of halo stars, for galaxy systems spanning a wide range in host halo vir…

How does the velocity anisotropy of halo stars, dark matter and satellite galaxies depend on host halo properties?

Jiaxin He, Wenting Wang, Zhaozhou Li +8

We investigate the mass () and concentration () dependencies of the velocity anisotropy () profiles for different components in the dark matter halo, including…

RMS asymmetry: a robust metric of galaxy shapes in images with varied depth and resolution

Elizaveta Sazonova, Cameron R Morgan, Michael Balogh +13

Structural disturbances, such as galaxy mergers or instabilities, are key candidates for driving galaxy evolution, so it is important to detect and quantify galaxies hosting these…

Using two point correlation functions to understand the assembly histories of Milky Way-like galaxies

Yike Zhang, Wenting Wang, Jiaxin Han +4

The two point correlation function (2PCF) is a powerful statistical tool to measure galaxy clustering. Although 2PCF has also been used to study the clustering of stars on parsec a…
