Anomalously low metallicity regions in MaNGA star-forming galaxies: Accretion Caught in Action?
Hsiang-Chih Hwang, Jorge K. Barrera-Ballesteros, Timothy M. Heckman +14
We use data from 1222 late-type star-forming galaxies in the SDSS IV MaNGA survey to identify regions in which the gas-phase metallicity is anomalously-low compared to expectations…
The IllustrisTNG Simulations: Public Data Release
Dylan Nelson, Volker Springel, Annalisa Pillepich +11
We present the full public release of all data from the TNG50, TNG100 and TNG300 simulations of the IllustrisTNG project. IllustrisTNG is a suite of large volume, cosmological, gra…
Jellyfish galaxies with the IllustrisTNG simulations: I. Gas-stripping phenomena in the full cosmological context
Kiyun Yun, Annalisa Pillepich, Elad Zinger +8
We use IllustrisTNG, a suite of gravity and MHD simulations, to study the demographics and properties of jellyfish galaxies in the full cosmological context. By jellyfish galaxies,…
The optical morphologies of galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulation: a comparison to Pan-STARRS observations
Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez, Gregory F. Snyder, Jennifer M. Lotz +12
We have generated synthetic images of 27,000 galaxies from the IllustrisTNG and the original Illustris hydrodynamic cosmological simulations, designed to match Pan-STARRS obs…
Automated Distant Galaxy Merger Classifications from Space Telescope Images using the Illustris Simulation
Gregory F. Snyder, Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez, Jennifer M. Lotz +5
We present image-based evolution of galaxy mergers from the Illustris cosmological simulation at 12 time-steps over 0.5 < z < 5. To do so, we created approximately one million synt…
The Frequency of Dwarf Galaxy Multiples at Low Redshift in SDSS vs. Cosmological Expectations
Gurtina Besla, David R. Patton, Sabrina Stierwalt +7
We quantify the frequency of companions of low redshift (), dwarf galaxies ( M M M) that are isolated fro…
SDSS-IV MaNGA: Spatially resolved star-formation histories and the connection to galaxy physical properties
K. Rowlands, T. Heckman, V. Wild +11
A key task of observational extragalactic astronomy is to determine where -- within galaxies of diverse masses and morphologies -- stellar mass growth occurs, how it depends on gal…
Formation of a Malin 1 analogue in IllustrisTNG by stimulated accretion
Qirong Zhu, Dandan Xu, Massimo Gaspari +13
The galaxy Malin 1 contains the largest stellar disk known but the formation mechanism of this structure has been elusive. In this paper, we report a Malin 1 analogue in the 100 Mp…
