The MillenniumTNG Project: The impact of baryons and massive neutrinos on high-resolution weak gravitational lensing convergence maps

Fulvio Ferlito, Volker Springel, Christopher T. Davies +10

We study weak gravitational lensing convergence maps produced from the MillenniumTNG (MTNG) simulations by direct projection of the mass distribution on the past backwards lightcon…

Hydrogen Reionization in the Illustris universe

Andreas Bauer, Volker Springel, Mark Vogelsberger +5

Hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation such as the Illustris simulations have progressed to a state where they approximately reproduce the observed stellar mass function fr…

Lyman-alpha Emitters and Lyman-break Galaxies at z=3-6 in Cosmological SPH Simulations

Kentaro Nagamine, Masami Ouchi, Volker Springel +1

We study the properties of Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) and Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) at z=3-6 using cosmological SPH simulations. We investigate two simple scenarios for explaini…

Modeling the Dust Properties of z ~ 6 Quasars with ART^2 -- All-wavelength Radiative Transfer with Adaptive Refinement Tree

Yuexing Li, Philip F. Hopkins, Lars Hernquist +6

The detection of large quantities of dust in z ~ 6 quasars by infrared and radio surveys presents puzzles for the formation and evolution of dust in these early systems. Previously…

Formation of Primordial Stars in a LCDM Universe

Naoki Yoshida, Kazuyuki Omukai, Lars Hernquist +1

We study the formation of the first generation of stars in the standard cold dark matter model, using a very high-resolution hydordynamic simulations. Our simulation achieves a dyn…

Black holes in galaxy mergers: The formation of red elliptical galaxies

Volker Springel, Tiziana Di Matteo, Lars Hernquist

We use hydrodynamical simulations to study the color transformations induced by star formation and active galactic nuclei (AGN) during major mergers of spiral galaxies. Our modelin…
