Galaxy interactions in IllustrisTNG-100, I: The power and limitations of visual identification
Kelly Blumenthal, Jorge Moreno, Joshua E. Barnes +6
We present a sample of 446 galaxy pairs constructed using the cosmological simulation IllustrisTNG-100 at z = 0, with M = 10-10 M. We produce…
Constraining black hole-galaxy scaling relations from the large-scale clustering of Active Galactic Nuclei and implied mean radiative efficiency
Francesco Shankar, Viola Allevato, Mariangela Bernardi +11
A supermassive black hole has been found at the centre of nearly every galaxy observed with sufficient sensitivity. The masses of these black holes are observed to increase with ei…
Deep learning predictions of galaxy merger stage and the importance of observational realism
Connor Bottrell, Maan H. Hani, Hossen Teimoorinia +7
Machine learning is becoming a popular tool to quantify galaxy morphologies and identify mergers. However, this technique relies on using an appropriate set of training data to be…
Interacting galaxies on FIRE-2: The connection between enhanced star formation and interstellar gas content
Jorge Moreno, Paul Torrey, Sara L. Ellison +8
We present a comprehensive suite of high-resolution (parsec-scale), idealised (non-cosmological) galaxy merger simulations (24 runs, stellar mass ratio ~2.5:1) to investigate the c…
What shapes a galaxy? - Unraveling the role of mass, environment and star formation in forming galactic structure
Asa F. L. Bluck, Connor Bottrell, Hossen Teimoorinia +9
We investigate the dependence of galaxy structure on a variety of galactic and environmental parameters for ~500,000 galaxies at z<0.2, taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data…
