Impacts of a Flaring Star-forming Disc and Stellar Radial Mixing on the Vertical Metallicity Gradient

D. Kawata, R. J. J. Grand, B. K. Gibson +3

Using idealised N-body simulations of a Milky Way-sized disc galaxy, we qualitatively study how the metallicity distributions of the thin disc star particles are modified by the fo…

Observationally-Motivated Analysis of Simulated Galaxies

M. S. Miranda, B. A. Macfarlane, B. K. Gibson

The spatial and temporal relationships between stellar age, kinematics, and chemistry are a fundamental tool for uncovering the physics driving galaxy formation and evolution. Obse…

The Halo Shape and Evolution of Polar Disc Galaxies

O. N. Snaith, B. K. Gibson, C. B. Brook +5

We examine the properties and evolution of a simulated polar disc galaxy. This galaxy is comprised of two orthogonal discs, one of which contains old stars (old stellar disc), and…

The Distribution of Metals in Cosmological Hydrodynamical Simulations of Dwarf Disk Galaxies

K. Pilkington, B. K. Gibson, C. B. Brook +9

We examine the chemical properties of 5 cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of an M33-like disc galaxy which have been shown to be consistent with the morphological characteris…

MaGICC Disks: Matching Observed Galaxy Relationships Over a Wide Stellar Mass Range

C. B. Brook, G. Stinson, B. K. Gibson +2

We use the same physical model to simulate four galaxies that match the relation between stellar and total mass, over a mass range that includes the vast majority of disc galaxies.…

Advanced Morphological Galaxy Classification: A Comparison of Real and Simulated Galaxies

K. M. Hambleton, B. K. Gibson, C. B. Brook +5

Encoded within the morphological structure of galaxies are clues related to their formation and evolutionary history. Recent advances pertaining to the statistics of galaxy morphol…
