Synthetic Galaxy Images and Spectra from the Illustris Simulation
Paul Torrey, Gregory F. Snyder, Mark Vogelsberger +10
We present our methods for generating a catalog of 7,000 synthetic images and 40,000 integrated spectra of redshift z = 0 galaxies from the Illustris Simulation. The mock data prod…
The Formation of Massive, Compact Galaxies at z=2 in the Illustris Simulation
Sarah Wellons, Paul Torrey, Chung-Pei Ma +13
Massive, quiescent galaxies at high redshift have been found to be considerably more compact than galaxies of similar mass in the local universe. How these compact galaxies formed…
The colors of satellite galaxies in the Illustris Simulation
Laura V. Sales, Mark Vogelsberger, Shy Genel +8
Observationally, the fraction of blue satellite galaxies decreases steeply with host halo mass, and their radial distribution around central galaxies is significantly shallower in…
The host galaxies of X-ray selected Active Galactic Nuclei to z=2.5: Structure, star-formation and their relationships from CANDELS and Herschel/PACS
D. J. Rosario, D. H. McIntosh, A. van der Wel +60
We study the relationship between the structure and star-formation rate (SFR) of X-ray selected low and moderate luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the two Chandra Deep Fi…
Building Late-Type Spiral Galaxies by In-Situ and Ex-Situ Star Formation
Annalisa Pillepich, Piero Madau, Lucio Mayer
We analyze the formation and evolution of the stellar components in "Eris", a 120 pc-resolution cosmological hydrodynamic simulation of a late-type spiral galaxy. The simulation in…
Halo Mass and Assembly History Exposed in the Faint Outskirts: the Stellar and Dark Matter Haloes of Illustris Galaxies
Annalisa Pillepich, Mark Vogelsberger, Alis Deason +9
We use the Illustris Simulations to gain insight into the build-up of the outer, low-surface brightness regions which surround galaxies. We characterize the stellar haloes by means…
