Wandering Supermassive Black Holes in Milky Way Mass Halos

Michael Tremmel, Fabio Governato, Marta Volonteri +2

We present a self-consistent prediction from a large-scale cosmological simulation for the population of `wandering' supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of mass greater than M$…

Dancing to ChaNGa: A Self-Consistent Prediction For Close SMBH Pair Formation Timescales Following Galaxy Mergers

Michael Tremmel, Fabio Governato, Marta Volonteri +2

We present the first self-consistent prediction for the distribution of formation timescales for close Supermassive Black Hole (SMBH) pairs following galaxy mergers. Using ROMULUS2…

Quantifying the Origin and Distribution of Intracluster Light in a Fornax-like Cluster

Kathryn A. Harris, Victor P. Debattista, Fabio Governato +9

Using a cosmological -body simulation, we investigate the origin and distribution of stars in the intracluster light (ICL) of a Fornax-like cluster. In a dark matter only simula…

Going, going, gone dark: Quantifying the scatter in the faintest dwarf galaxies

Ferah Munshi, Alyson M. Brooks, Elaad Applebaum +3

We predict the stellar mass-halo mass (SMHM) relationship for dwarf galaxies and their satellites residing in halos down to M 10 M with 10 M$_{\odot} <…

Beta Dips in the Gaia Era: Simulation Predictions of the Galactic Velocity Anisotropy Parameter for Stellar Halos

Sarah R. Loebman, Monica Valluri, Kohei Hattori +7

The velocity anisotropy parameter, beta, is a measure of the kinematic state of orbits in the stellar halo which holds promise for constraining the merger history of the Milky Way…

How to Reconcile the Observed Velocity Function of Galaxies with Theory

Alyson M. Brooks, Emmanouil Papastergis, Charlotte R. Christensen +4

Within a Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) scenario, we use high resolution cosmological simulations spanning over four orders of magnitude in galaxy mass to understand the deficit of…
