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…

A marked correlation function analysis of halo formation times in the Millennium Simulation

Geraint Harker, Shaun Cole, John Helly +2

We study the environmental dependence of the formation epoch of dark matter haloes in the Millennium Simulation: a ten billion particle N-body simulation of standard LambdaCDM cosm…

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…

The Distribution of Satellite Galaxies: The Great Pancake

Noam I Libeskind, Carlos S Frenk, Shaun Cole +4

The 11 known satellite galaxies within 250 kpc of the Milky Way lie close to a great circle on the sky. We use high resolution N-body simulations of galactic dark matter halos to t…
