iMaNGA: mock MaNGA galaxies based on IllustrisTNG and MaStar SSPs. -- III. Stellar metallicity drivers in MaNGA and TNG50

Lorenza Nanni, Justus Neumann, Daniel Thomas +6

The iMaNGA project uses a forward-modelling approach to compare the predictions of cosmological simulations with observations from SDSS-IV/MaNGA. We investigate the dependency of a…

iMaNGA: mock MaNGA galaxies based on IllustrisTNG and MaStar SSPs -- II. The catalogue

Lorenza Nanni, Daniel Thomas, James Trayford +8

Strengthening the synergy between simulations and observations is essential to test galaxy formation and evolution theories. To achieve this goal, in the first paper of this series…
