L-GALAXIES 2020: Spatially resolved cold gas phases, star formation and chemical enrichment in galactic discs
Bruno Henriques, Rob Yates, Jian Fu +5
We have updated the Munich galaxy formation model, L-Galaxies, to follow the radial distributions of stars and atomic and molecular gas in galaxy discs. We include an H2-based star…
MEGA: Merger graphs of structure formation
William J. Roper, Peter A. Thomas, Chaichalit Srisawat
When following the growth of structure in the Universe, we propose replacing merger trees with merger graphs, in which haloes can both merge and split into separate pieces. We show…
Cosmic CARNage II: the evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function in observations and galaxy formation models
Rachel Asquith, Frazer R. Pearce, Omar Almaini +24
We present a comparison of the observed evolving galaxy stellar mass functions with the predictions of eight semi-analytic models and one halo occupation distribution model. While…
Cosmic CARNage I: on the calibration of galaxy formation models
Alexander Knebe, Frazer R. Pearce, Violeta Gonzalez-Perez +31
We present a comparison of nine galaxy formation models, eight semi-analytical and one halo occupation distribution model, run on the same underlying cold dark matter simulation (c…
nIFTy Cosmology: the clustering consistency of galaxy formation models
Arnau Pujol, Ramin A. Skibba, Enrique Gaztañaga +35
We present a clustering comparison of 12 galaxy formation models (including Semi-Analytic Models (SAMs) and Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) models) all run on halo catalogues an…
Sussing Merger Trees: Stability and Convergence
Yang Wang, Frazer R. Pearce, Alexander Knebe +15
Merger trees are routinely used to follow the growth and merging history of dark matter haloes and subhaloes in simulations of cosmic structure formation. Srisawat et al. (2013) co…
Sussing Merger Trees: A proposed Merger Tree data format
Peter A. Thomas, Julian Onions, Dylan Tweed +13
We propose a common terminology for use in describing both temporal merger trees and spatial structure trees for dark-matter halos. We specify a unified data format in HDF5 and pro…
Major Mergers Going Notts: Challenges for Modern Halo Finders
Peter Behroozi, Alexander Knebe, Frazer R. Pearce +7
Merging haloes with similar masses (i.e., major mergers) pose significant challenges for halo finders. We compare five halo finding algorithms' (AHF, HBT, Rockstar, SubFind, and VE…
nIFTy Cosmology: Comparison of Galaxy Formation Models
Alexander Knebe, Frazer R. Pearce, Peter A. Thomas +33
We present a comparison of 14 galaxy formation models: 12 different semi-analytical models and 2 halo-occupation distribution models for galaxy formation based upon the same cosmol…
Sussing Merger Trees : The Impact of Halo Merger Trees on Galaxy Properties in a Semi-Analytic Model
Jaehyun Lee, Sukyoung K. Yi, Pascal J. Elahi +13
A halo merger tree forms the essential backbone of a semi-analytic model for galaxy formation and evolution. Recent studies have pointed out that extracting merger trees from numer…
Nonlinear Bias of Cosmological Halo Formation in the Early Universe
Kyungjin Ahn, Ilian T. Iliev, Paul R. Shapiro +1
We present estimates of the nonlinear bias of cosmological halo formation, spanning a wide range in the halo mass from to , based upon b…
The life and death of cosmic voids
P. M. Sutter, Pascal Elahi, Bridget Falck +5
We investigate the formation, growth, merger history, movement, and destruction of cosmic voids detected via the watershed transform code VIDE in a cosmological N-body dark matter…
Sussing Merger Trees: the influence of the halo finder
Santiago Avila, Alexander Knebe, Frazer R. Pearce +9
Merger tree codes are routinely used to follow the growth and merger of dark matter haloes in simulations of cosmic structure formation. Whereas in Srisawat et. al. we compared the…
Sussing Merger Trees: The Merger Trees Comparison Project
Chaichalit Srisawat, Alexander Knebe, Frazer R. Pearce +15
Merger trees follow the growth and merger of dark-matter haloes over cosmic history. As well as giving important insights into the growth of cosmic structure in their own right, th…
