Disk galaxies at z=2 in OWLS

Julio F. Navarro, Laura V. Sales, Joop Schaye +2

We use the OWLS (OverWhelmingly Large Simulations) set of cosmological Nbody/gasdynamical simulations to study the properties of simulated galaxies at z=2. We focus on the effect o…

The Origin of Extended Disk Galaxies at z=2

Laura V. Sales, Julio F. Navarro, Joop Schaye +4

Galaxy formation models typically assume that the size and rotation speed of galaxy disks are largely dictated by the mass, concentration, and spin of their surrounding dark matter…

Satellite Galaxies and Fossil Groups in the Millennium Simulation

L. V. Sales, J. F. Navarro, D. G. Lambas +2

We use a semianalytic galaxy catalogue constructed from the Millennium Simulation to study the satellites of isolated galaxies in the LCDM cosmogony. This sample (~80,000$ bright p…

Cosmic Ménage à Trois: The Origin of Satellite Galaxies On Extreme Orbits

L. V. Sales, J. F. Navarro, M. G. Abadi +1

We examine the orbits of satellite galaxies identified in a suite of N-body/gasdynamical simulations of the formation of galaxies in a LCDM universe. Most satellites follow c…

Satellite number density profiles of primary galaxies in the 2dFGRS

Laura Sales, Diego G. Lambas

We analyse the projected radial distribution of satellites around bright primary galaxies in the 2dFGRS. We have considered several primary-satellite subsamples to search for depen…

Anisotropy in the distribution of satellites around primary galaxies in the 2dFGRS: the Holmberg effect

Laura Sales, Diego G. Lambas

We have analysed a sample of satellite and primary galaxies in the 2dF galaxy redshift survey. In our study we find a strong statistical evidence of the Holmberg effect (that is a…
