Constraining the mass of the Local Group
Edoardo Carlesi, Yehuda Hoffman, Jenny G. Sorce +1
The mass of the Local Group (LG) is a crucial parameter for galaxy formation theories. However, its observational determination is challenging - its mass budget is dominated by dar…
How did the Virgo cluster form?
Jenny G. Sorce, Stefan Gottloeber, Yehuda Hoffman +1
While the Virgo cluster is the nearest galaxy cluster and therefore the best observed one, little is known about its formation history. In this paper, a set of cosmological simulat…
Cosmicflows-3
R. Brent Tully, Helene M. Courtois, Jenny G. Sorce
The Cosmicflows database of galaxy distances that in the 2nd edition contained 8,188 entries is now expanded to 17,669 entries. The major additions are 2,257 distances that we have…
The tangential velocity of M31: CLUES from constrained simulations
Edoardo Carlesi, Yehuda Hoffman, Jenny G. Sorce +4
Determining the precise value of the tangential component of the velocity of M31 is a non trivial astrophysical issue, that relies on complicated modeling. This has recently lead t…
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…
