Stellar haloes in Milky-Way mass galaxies: From the inner to the outer haloes
P. Tissera, T. Beers, D. Carollo +1
We present a comprehensive study of the chemical properties of the stellar haloes of Milky-Way mass galaxies, analysing the transition between the inner to the outer haloes. We fin…
Bars in hydrodynamical cosmological simulations
Cecilia Scannapieco, Evangelia Athanassoula
We study the properties of two bars formed in fully cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of the formation of Milky Way-mass galaxies. In one case, the bar formed in a system wit…
Chemical signatures of formation processes in the stellar populations of simulated galaxies
Patricia B. Tissera, Simon D. M. White, Cecilia Scannapieco
We study the chemical properties of the stellar populations in eight simulations of the formation of Milky-Way mass galaxies in a LCDM Universe. Our simulations include metal-depen…
The GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey. IV. Baryonic Mass-Velocity-Size Relations of Massive Galaxies
Barbara Catinella, Guinevere Kauffmann, David Schiminovich +12
We present dynamical scaling relations for a homogeneous and representative sample of ~500 massive galaxies, selected only by stellar mass (>10^10 Msun) and redshift (0.025<z<0.05)…
Formation history, structure and dynamics of discs and spheroids in simulated Milky Way mass galaxies
Cecilia Scannapieco, Simon D. M White, Volker Springel +1
We study the stellar discs and spheroids in eight simulations of galaxy formation within Milky Way-mass haloes in a Lambda Cold Dark Matter cosmology. A first paper in this series…
Local Group Dwarf Galaxies: Nature And Nurture
Till Sawala, Cecilia Scannapieco, Simon White
We investigate the formation and evolution of dwarf galaxies in a high resolution, hydrodynamical cosmological simulation of a Milky Way sized halo and its environment. Our simulat…
What is the (Dark) Matter with Dwarf Galaxies?
Till Sawala, Qi Guo, Cecilia Scannapieco +2
We present cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of the formation of dwarf galaxies in a representative sample of haloes extracted from the Millennium-II Simulation. Our six halo…
The joint evolution of baryons and dark matter haloes
Susana E. Pedrosa, Patricia B. Tissera, Cecilia Scannapieco
We have studied the dark matter (DM) distribution in a approx 10^12 h^-1 M_sun mass halo extracted from a simulation consistent with the concordance cosmology, where the physics re…
Dark matter response to galaxy formation
Patricia B. Tissera, Simon D. M. White, Susana Pedrosa +1
We have resimulated the six galaxy-sized haloes of the Aquarius Project including metal-dependent cooling, star formation and supernova feedback. This allows us to study not only h…
The impact of baryons on dark matter haloes
Susana E. Pedrosa, Patricia B. Tissera, Cecilia Scannapieco
We analyse the dark matter (DM) distribution in a approx 10^12 M_sun halo extracted from a simulation consistent with the concordance cosmology, where the physics regulating the tr…
