The spin and orientation of dark matter halos within cosmic filaments
Youcai Zhang, Xiaohu Yang, Andreas Faltenbacher +3
Clusters, filaments, sheets and voids are the building blocks of the cosmic web. In this study, we present and compare two distinct algorithms for finding cosmic filaments and shee…
Disk galaxies at z=2 in OWLS
Julio F. Navarro, Laura V. Sales, Joop Schaye +2
We use the OWLS (OverWhelmingly Large Simulations) set of cosmological Nbody/gasdynamical simulations to study the properties of simulated galaxies at z=2. We focus on the effect o…
The Origin of Extended Disk Galaxies at z=2
Laura V. Sales, Julio F. Navarro, Joop Schaye +4
Galaxy formation models typically assume that the size and rotation speed of galaxy disks are largely dictated by the mass, concentration, and spin of their surrounding dark matter…
