The origin of the stellar mass-size relation of satellite galaxies in the COLIBRE simulations

Bruno M. Celiz, Julio F. Navarro, Joop Schaye +9

We study the stellar mass-size relation of satellite galaxies in the COLIBRE suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. Satellites deviate from the relation that holds for c…

The effect of galaxy interactions on star formation rates in the COLIBRE simulations

Quinten W. E. van Zegveld, Evgenii Chaikin, Joop Schaye +8

Observations and theory indicate that galaxy interactions enhance star formation rates (SFRs). However, the degree of enhancement and its dependence on the properties of the intera…

Baryon-driven decontraction in Milky Way mass haloes

Victor J. Forouhar Moreno, Alejandro Benítez-Llambay, Shaun Cole +1

We select a sample of Milky Way (MW) mass haloes from a high-resolution version of the EAGLE simulation to study their inner dark matter (DM) content and how baryons alter it. As i…

The origin of the mass discrepancy-acceleration relation in CDM

Julio F. Navarro, Alejandro Benítez-Llambay, Azadeh Fattahi +5

We examine the origin of the mass discrepancy--radial acceleration relation (MDAR) of disk galaxies. This is a tight empirical correlation between the disk centripetal acceleration…
