Unveiling the population of massive quenched galaxies at in the COLIBRE simulations - I. Galaxy demographics

Ángel Chandro-Gómez, Claudia del P. Lagos, Chris Power +14

The James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered a substantial population of Massive (), Quenched Galaxies (MQGs) in the early Universe ($z \ge…

Kennicutt-Schmidt relation of galaxies over 13 billion years in the COLIBRE hydrodynamical simulations

Claudia del P. Lagos, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +16

We investigate the correlation between star formation rate (SFR) surface density and gas surface density (known as the Kennicutt-Schmidt, KS, relation) at kiloparsec (kpc) scales a…

Clustering effects on the Dark Siren determination of : A simulation study

Marios Kalomenopoulos, Riccardo Barbieri, Sadegh Khochfar +2

We investigate the cosmological power of gravitational wave (GWs) events without electromagnetic counterparts using high-resolution, cosmological simulations that include realistic…

Gravitational potential drives the concentration dependence of the stellar mass-halo mass relation

Kai Wang, Joop Schaye, Alejandro Benítez-Llambay +8

We investigate the origin of the scatter in the stellar mass-halo mass (SMHM) relation using the \colibre cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. At fixed halo mass, we find a cle…

FLAMINGO: Tracing the co-evolution of hot gas and black holes in galaxy groups and clusters

Emily E. Costello, Ian G. McCarthy, Jaime Salcido +4

The gas mass fraction of galaxy groups and clusters is a key physical quantity for constraining the impact of feedback processes on large-scale structure. While several modern cosm…

The evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function and star formation rates in the COLIBRE simulations from redshift 17 to 0

Evgenii Chaikin, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +7

We investigate the evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function (GSMF) and star formation rates (SFRs) across cosmic time in the COLIBRE simulations of galaxy formation. COLIBRE i…

COLIBRE: calibrating subgrid feedback in cosmological simulations that include a cold gas phase

Evgenii Chaikin, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +17

We present the calibration of stellar and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback in the subgrid model for the new COLIBRE hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation. COLIBRE di…

SOAP: A Python Package for Calculating the Properties of Galaxies and Halos Formed in Cosmological Simulations

Robert McGibbon, John C. Helly, Joop Schaye +2

Modern large scale cosmological hydrodynamic simulations require robust tools capable of analysing their data outputs in a parallel and efficient manner. We introduce SOAP (Spheric…

Cosmological feedback from a halo assembly perspective

Luisa Lucie-Smith, Hiranya V. Peiris, Andrew Pontzen +6

The impact of feedback from galaxy formation on cosmological probes is typically quantified in terms of the suppression of the matter power spectrum in hydrodynamical compared to g…

Unbiased estimates of the shapes of haloes using the positions of satellite galaxies

A. Herle, N. E. Chisari, H. Hoekstra +4

The shapes of dark matter haloes are sensitive to both cosmology and baryon physics, but are difficult to measure observationally. A promising way to constrain them is to use the p…

Assessing subhalo finders in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations

Victor J. Forouhar Moreno, John Helly, Robert McGibbon +5

Cosmological simulations are essential for inferring cosmological and galaxy population properties based on forward-modelling, but this typically requires finding the population of…

On the accuracy of dark matter halo merger trees and the consequences for semi-analytic models of galaxy formation

Ángel Chandro-Gómez, Claudia del P. Lagos, Chris Power +6

Galaxy formation and evolution models, such as semi-analytic models, are powerful theoretical tools for predicting how galaxies evolve across cosmic time. These models follow the e…
