A Physically Motivated Framework to Compare Merger Timescales of Isolated Low- and High-Mass Galaxy Pairs Across Cosmic Time

Katie Chamberlain, Ekta Patel, Gurtina Besla +2

The merger timescales of isolated low-mass pairs () on cosmologically motivated orbits have not yet been studied in detail, though isolated hig…

Morphological signatures of mergers in the TNG50 simulation and the Kilo-Degree Survey: the merger fraction from dwarfs to Milky Way-like galaxies

Alejandro Guzmán-Ortega, Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez, Gregory F. Snyder +2

Using the TNG50 cosmological simulation and observations from the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS), we investigate the connection between galaxy mergers and optical morphology in the loca…

The merger and assembly histories of Milky Way- and M31-like galaxies with TNG50: disk survival through mergers

Diego Sotillo-Ramos, Annalisa Pillepich, Martina Donnari +6

We analyze the merger and assembly histories of Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31)-like galaxies to quantify how, and how often, disk galaxies of this mass can survive recent major…

Galactic angular momentum in the IllustrisTNG simulation -- I. Connection to morphology, halo spin, and black hole mass

Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez, Shy Genel, S. Michael Fall +9

We use the TNG100 simulation of the IllustrisTNG project to investigate the stellar specific angular momenta () of 12,000 central galaxies at in a full cosmol…

North Ecliptic Pole merging galaxy catalogue

W. J. Pearson, L. E. Suelves, S. C. -C. Ho +17

We aim to generate a catalogue of merging galaxies within the 5.4 sq. deg. North Ecliptic Pole over the redshift range . To do this, imaging data from the Hyper Supr…

The Fornax3D project: The environmental impact on gas metallicity gradients in Fornax cluster galaxies

M. A. Lara-Lopez, P. M. Galan-de Anta, M. Sarzi +16

The role played by environment in galaxy evolution is a current debate in astronomy. The degree to which environment can alter, re-shape, or drive galaxy evolution is a topic of di…
