The Origin of Disks and Spheroids in Simulated Galaxies
Laura V. Sales, Julio F. Navarro, Tom Theuns +5
In the simplest scenario, disk galaxies form predominantly in halos with high angular momentum and quiet recent assembly history, whereas spheroids are the slowly-rotating remnants…
Hydrodynamical simulations and semi-analytic models of galaxy formation: two sides of the same coin
Eyal Neistein, Sadegh Khochfar, Claudio Dalla Vecchia +1
In this work we develop a new method to turn a state-of-the-art hydrodynamical cosmological simulation of galaxy formation (HYD) into a simple semi-analytic model (SAM). This is ac…
Modelling neutral hydrogen in galaxies using cosmological hydrodynamical simulations
Alan R. Duffy, Scott T. Kay, Richard A. Battye +3
The characterisation of the atomic and molecular hydrogen content of high-redshift galaxies is a major observational challenge that will be addressed over the coming years with a n…
The effects of galaxy formation on the matter power spectrum: A challenge for precision cosmology
Marcel P. van Daalen, Joop Schaye, C. M. Booth +1
Upcoming weak lensing surveys, such as LSST, EUCLID, and WFIRST, aim to measure the matter power spectrum with unprecedented accuracy. In order to fully exploit these observations,…
The drop in the cosmic star formation rate below redshift 2 is caused by a change in the mode of gas accretion and by AGN feedback
Freeke van de Voort, Joop Schaye, C. M. Booth +1
The cosmic star formation rate is observed to drop sharply after redshift z=2. We use a large, cosmological, smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulation to investigate how this decl…
