A unified model for age-velocity dispersion relations in Local Group galaxies: Disentangling ISM turbulence and latent dynamical heating
Ryan Leaman, J. Trevor Mendel, Emily Wisnioski +9
We analyze age-velocity dispersion relations (AVRs) from kinematics of individual stars in eight Local Group galaxies ranging in mass from Carina () to M31 ($M_{…
Beta Dips in the Gaia Era: Simulation Predictions of the Galactic Velocity Anisotropy Parameter for Stellar Halos
Sarah R. Loebman, Monica Valluri, Kohei Hattori +7
The velocity anisotropy parameter, beta, is a measure of the kinematic state of orbits in the stellar halo which holds promise for constraining the merger history of the Milky Way…
How to Reconcile the Observed Velocity Function of Galaxies with Theory
Alyson M. Brooks, Emmanouil Papastergis, Charlotte R. Christensen +4
Within a Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) scenario, we use high resolution cosmological simulations spanning over four orders of magnitude in galaxy mass to understand the deficit of…
