The AGORA High-Resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project
Ji-hoon Kim, Tom Abel, Oscar Agertz +43
We introduce the AGORA project, a comprehensive numerical study of well-resolved galaxies within the LCDM cosmology. Cosmological hydrodynamic simulations with force resolutions of…
The Distribution of Dark Matter in the Milky Way's Disk
Annalisa Pillepich, Michael Kuhlen, Javiera Guedes +1
We present an analysis of the effects of dissipational baryonic physics on the local dark matter (DM) distribution at the location of the Sun, with an emphasis on the consequences…
A "Light," Centrally-Concentrated Milky Way Halo?
Valery Rashkov, Annalisa Pillepich, Alis J. Deason +4
We discuss a novel approach to "weighing" the Milky Way dark matter halo, one that combines the latest samples of halo stars selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) with…
Inside Out and Upside Down: Tracing the Assembly of a Simulated Disk Galaxy Using Mono-Age Stellar Populations
Jonathan C. Bird, Stelios Kazantzidis, David H. Weinberg +4
We analyze the present-day structure and assembly history of a high resolution hydrodynamic simulation of the formation of a Milky Way (MW)-like disk galaxy, from the "Eris" simula…
