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…

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…
