Decoupling the rotation of stars and gas -- II: the link between black hole activity and MaNGA kinematics in TNG
Christopher Duckworth, Tjitske K. Starkenburg, Shy Genel +4
We study the relationship between supermassive black hole (BH) feedback, BH luminosity and the kinematics of stars and gas for galaxies in IllustrisTNG. We use a sample of galaxies…
From Dark Matter to Galaxies with Convolutional Neural Networks
Jacky H. T. Yip, Xinyue Zhang, Yanfang Wang +7
Cosmological simulations play an important role in the interpretation of astronomical data, in particular in comparing observed data to our theoretical expectations. However, to co…
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…
The relationship between black hole mass and galaxy properties: Examining the black hole feedback model in IllustrisTNG
Bryan A. Terrazas, Eric F. Bell, Annalisa Pillepich +8
Supermassive black hole feedback is thought to be responsible for the lack of star formation, or quiescence, in a significant fraction of galaxies. We explore how observable correl…
A study of stellar orbit fractions: simulated IllustrisTNG galaxies compared to CALIFA observations
Dandan Xu, Ling Zhu, Robert Grand +16
Motivated by the recently discovered kinematic "Hubble sequence" shown by the stellar orbit-circularity distribution of 260 CALIFA galaxies, we make use of a comparable galaxy samp…
Morphology and star formation in IllustrisTNG: the build-up of spheroids and discs
Sandro Tacchella, Benedikt Diemer, Lars Hernquist +8
Using the IllustrisTNG simulations, we investigate the connection between galaxy morphology and star formation in central galaxies with stellar masses in the range $10^9-10^{11.5}~…
