The statistical properties of LCDM halo formation
Shaun Cole, John Helly, Carlos S. Frenk +1
We present a comparison of the statistical properties of dark matter halo merger trees extracted from the Millennium Simulation with Extended Press-Schechter (EPS) formalism and th…
Generating Dark Matter Halo Merger Trees
Hannah Parkinson, Shaun Cole, John Helly
We present a new Monte-Carlo algorithm to generate merger trees describing the formation history of dark matter halos. The algorithm is a modification of the algorithm of Cole et a…
The spin and shape of dark matter haloes in the Millennium simulation of a LambdaCDM universe
Philip Bett, Vincent Eke, Carlos S. Frenk +3
We investigate the spins and shapes of over a million dark matter haloes identified at z=0 in the Millennium simulation. Our sample spans halo masses ranging from dwarf galaxies to…
The Effect of Gravitational Recoil on Black Holes Forming in a Hierarchical Universe
N. I. Libeskind, S. Cole, C. S. Frenk +1
Galactic bulges are known to harbour central black holes whose mass is tightly correlated with the stellar mass and velocity dispersion of the bulge. In a hierarchical universe, me…
The broken hierarchy of galaxy formation
R. G. Bower, A. J. Benson, R. Malbon +5
Recent observations of the distant Universe suggest that much of the stellar mass of bright galaxies was already in place at . This presents a challenge for models of galaxy f…
Simulating the joint evolution of quasars, galaxies and their large-scale distribution
Volker Springel, Simon D. M. White, Adrian Jenkins +14
The cold dark matter model has become the leading theoretical paradigm for the formation of structure in the Universe. Together with the theory of cosmic inflation, this model make…
