Caught in the rhythm II: Competitive alignments of satellites with their inner halo and central galaxy

Charlotte Welker, Chris Power, Christophe Pichon +3

The anisotropic distribution of satellites around the central galaxy of their host halo is well-documented. However the relative impact of baryons and dark matter in shaping this d…

Identifying the progenitors of present-day early-type galaxies in observational surveys: correcting `progenitor bias' using the Horizon-AGN simulation

G. Martin, S. Kaviraj, J. E. G. Devriendt +3

As endpoints of the hierarchical mass-assembly process, the stellar populations of local early-type galaxies encode the assembly history of galaxies over cosmic time. We use Horizo…

Group quenching and galactic conformity at low redshift

M. Treyer, K. Kraljic, S. Arnouts +13

We quantify the quenching impact of the group environment using the spectroscopic survey Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) to z=0.2. The fraction of red (quiescent) galaxies, whether…

Using Real and Simulated Measurements of the Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect to Constrain Models of AGN Feedback

Alexander Spacek, Mark Richardson, Evan Scannapieco +4

Energetic feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is often used in simulations to resolve several outstanding issues in galaxy formation, but its impact is still not fully unde…

Galaxy evolution in the metric of the Cosmic Web

K. Kraljic, S. Arnouts, C. Pichon +19

The role of the cosmic web in shaping galaxy properties is investigated in the GAMA spectroscopic survey in the redshift range . The stellar mass, du…

The limited role of galaxy mergers in driving stellar mass growth over cosmic time

G. Martin, S. Kaviraj, J. E. G. Devriendt +3

A key unresolved question is the role that galaxy mergers play in driving stellar mass growth over cosmic time. Recent observational work hints at the possibility that the overall…

Dressed diffusion and friction coefficients in inhomogeneous multicomponent self-gravitating systems

Jean Heyvaerts, Jean-Baptiste Fouvry, Pierre-Henri Chavanis +1

General self-consistent expressions for the coefficients of diffusion and dynamical friction in a stable, bound, multicomponent self-gravitating and inhomogeneous system are derive…

The secular evolution of discrete quasi-Keplerian systems. II. Application to a multi-mass axisymmetric disc around a supermassive black hole

Jean-Baptiste Fouvry, Christophe Pichon, Pierre-Henri Chavanis

The drift and diffusion coefficients of the inhomogeneous multi-mass degenerate Landau equation are computed to describe the self-induced resonant relaxation of a discrete self-gra…

COSMOS2015 photometric redshifts probe the impact of filaments on galaxy properties

Clotilde Laigle, Christophe Pichon, Stephane Arnouts +12

The variations of galaxy stellar masses and colour-types with the distance to projected cosmic filaments are quantified using the precise photometric redshifts of the COSMOS2015 ca…
