Early-type galaxy density profiles from IllustrisTNG: I. Galaxy correlations and the impact of baryons

Yunchong Wang, Mark Vogelsberger, Dandan Xu +10

We explore the isothermal total density profiles of early-type galaxies (ETGs) in the IllustrisTNG simulation. For the selected 559 ETGs at with stellar mass $10^{10.7}\mat…

Dust in and around galaxies: dust in cluster environments and its impact on gas cooling

Mark Vogelsberger, Ryan McKinnon, Stephanie O'Neil +3

Simulating the dust content of galaxies and their surrounding gas is challenging due to the wide range of physical processes affecting the dust evolution. Here we present cosmologi…

A Deep Learning Approach to Galaxy Cluster X-ray Masses

M. Ntampaka, J. ZuHone, D. Eisenstein +9

We present a machine-learning approach for estimating galaxy cluster masses from Chandra mock images. We utilize a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), a deep machine learning tool…

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…
