The relationship between the morphology and kinematics of galaxies and its dependence on dark matter halo structure in EAGLE

Adrien C. R. Thob, Robert A. Crain, Ian G. McCarthy +7

We investigate the connection between the morphology and internal kinematics of the stellar component of central galaxies with mass in the EAGL…

Fossil stellar streams and their globular cluster populations in the E-MOSAICS simulations

Meghan E. Hughes, Joel Pfeffer, Marie Martig +4

Stellar haloes encode a fossil record of a galaxy's accretion history, generally in the form of structures of low surface brightness, such as stellar streams. While their low surfa…

The signal of decaying dark matter with hydrodynamical simulations

Mark R. Lovell, David Barnes, Yannick Bahé +11

Dark matter particles may decay, emitting photons. Drawing on the EAGLE family of hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy formation -- including the APOSTLE and C-EAGLE simulations -- w…

The gas fractions of dark matter haloes hosting simulated galaxies are governed by the feedback history of their black holes

Jonathan J. Davies, Robert A. Crain, Ian G. McCarthy +4

We examine the origin of scatter in the relationship between the gas fraction and mass of dark matter haloes hosting present-day central galaxies in the EAGLE simula…

Evolution of the cold gas properties of simulated post-starburst galaxies

Timothy A. Davis, Freeke van de Voort, Kate Rowlands +3

Post-starburst galaxies are typically considered to be a transition population, en route to the red sequence after a recent quenching event. Despite this, recent observations have…

Quasar Sightline and Galaxy Evolution (QSAGE) Survey - I. The Galaxy Environment of OVI Absorbers up to z=1.4 around PKS 0232-04

R. M. Bielby, J. P. Stott, F. Cullen +8

We present the first results from a study of OVI absorption around galaxies at using data from a near-infrared grism spectroscopic Hubble Space Telescope Large Program, th…
