X-ray Signatures of Black Hole Feedback: Hot Galactic Atmospheres in IllustrisTNG and X-ray Observations

Nhut Truong, Annalisa Pillepich, Norbert Werner +6

Hot gaseous atmospheres that permeate galaxies and extend far beyond their stellar distribution, where they are commonly referred to as the circumgalactic medium (CGM), imprint imp…

Correlations Between Black Holes and Host Galaxies in the Illustris and IllustrisTNG Simulations

Yuan Li, Melanie Habouzit, Shy Genel +11

We study black hole - host galaxy correlations, and the relation between the over-massiveness (the distance from the average relation) of super-massive black holes (SMBH…

ALMACAL VI: Molecular gas mass density across cosmic time via a blind search for intervening molecular absorbers

Anne Klitsch, Celine Peroux, Martin A. Zwaan +12

We are just starting to understand the physical processes driving the dramatic change in cosmic star-formation rate between and the present day. A quantity directly linke…

Identifying kinematic structures in simulated galaxies using unsupervised machine learning

Min Du, Luis C. Ho, Dongyao Zhao +4

Galaxies host a wide array of internal stellar components, which need to be decomposed accurately in order to understand their formation and evolution. While significant progress h…

Origin of the galaxy HI size-mass relation

Adam R. H. Stevens, Benedikt Diemer, Claudia del P. Lagos +4

We analytically derive the observed size-mass relation of galaxies' atomic hydrogen (HI), including limits on its scatter, based on simple assumptions about the structure of HI dis…

The buildup of strongly barred galaxies in the TNG100 simulation

Yetli Rosas-Guevara, Silvia Bonoli, Massimo Dotti +7

We analyse the properties of strongly barred disc galaxies using the TNG100 simulation, a cosmological hydrodynamical realisation of the IllustrisTNG suite. We identify 270 disc ga…
