The Hestia project: simulations of the Local Group

Noam I. Libeskind, Edoardo Carlesi, Rob J. J. Grand +19

We present the Hestia simulation suite: High-resolutions Environmental Simulations of The Immediate Area, a set of cosmological simulations of the Local Group. Initial conditions c…

On the Mass Assembly History of the Local Group

Edoardo Carlesi, Yehuda Hoffman, Stefan Gottlöber +4

In this work an ensemble of simulated Local Group analogues is used to constrain the properties of the mass assembly history of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) galaxies. The…

The orientation of planes of dwarf galaxies in the quasi-linear Universe

Noam I Libeskind, Edoardo Carlesi, Oliver Muller +9

To date at least 10 highly flattened planes of dwarf galaxies are claimed to have been discovered in the Local Universe. The origin of these planes of galaxies remains unknown. One…

Partitioning the universe into gravitational basins using the cosmic velocity field

A. Dupuy, H. M. Courtois, F. Dupont +8

This letter presents a new approach using the cosmic peculiar velocity field to characterize the morphology and size of large scale structures in the local Universe. The algorithm…

Constrained Local UniversE Simulations: A Local Group Factory

Edoardo Carlesi, Jenny G. Sorce, Yehuda Hoffman +8

Near field cosmology is practiced by studying the Local Group (LG) and its neighbourhood. The present paper describes a framework for simulating the near field on the computer. Ass…

Hidden from view: Coupled Dark Sector Physics and Small Scales

Pascal J. Elahi, Geraint F. Lewis, Chris Power +2

We study cluster mass dark matter haloes, their progenitors and surroundings in an coupled Dark Matter-Dark Energy model and compare it to quintessence and CDM models with adiab…
