Tracing the dynamical states and mass accretion histories of galaxy clusters in IllustrisTNG
Rashaad Reid, Syeda Lammim Ahad, Roan Haggar +2
As the largest and most recently formed stage of hierarchical structure, present-day galaxy clusters are predicted to have a broad range of late-time assembly histories. This diver…

Cluster properties as a function of dynamical state in the DESI Legacy x UNIONS surveys
Syeda Lammim Ahad, Rashaad Reid, Charlie T. Mpetha +10
We investigate how the dynamical state of galaxy clusters influences their galaxy populations and mass distributions. Using photometrically selected clusters from the DESI Legacy I…

Simulation of thermal conduction by asymmetric dark matter in realistic stars and planets
Hannah Banks, Stephanie Beram, Rashaad Reid +1
Dark matter captured in stars can act as an additional heat transport mechanism, modifying fusion rates and asteroseismoloigcal observables. Calculations of heat transport rates re…
