Angular momentum evolution of galaxies over the past 10-Gyr: A MUSE and KMOS dynamical survey of 400 star-forming galaxies from z=0.3-1.7

Mark Swinbank, Chris Harrison, James Trayford +23

We present a MUSE and KMOS dynamical study 405 star-forming galaxies at redshift z=0.28-1.65 (median redshift z=0.84). Our sample are representative of star-forming, main-sequence…

A chronicle of galaxy mass assembly in the EAGLE simulation

Yan Qu, John C. Helly, Richard G. Bower +8

We analyse the mass assembly of central galaxies in the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulations. We build merger trees to connect galaxies to their progenitors at different redshifts and…

Being WISE II: Reducing the Influence of Star Formation History on the Mass-to-Light Ratio of Quiescent Galaxies

Mark A. Norris, Glenn Van de Ven, Eva Schinnerer +8

Stellar population synthesis models can now reproduce the photometry of old stellar systems (age 2 Gyr) in the near-infrared (NIR) bands at 3.4 and 4.6m (WISE W1 W2 or…

The link between the assembly of the inner dark matter halo and the angular momentum evolution of galaxies in the EAGLE simulation

Jesus Zavala, Carlos S. Frenk, Richard Bower +6

We explore the co-evolution of the specific angular momentum of dark matter haloes and the cold baryons that comprise the galaxies within. We study over two thousand central galaxi…

Galaxies in the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulation and in the Durham and Munich semi-analytical models

Quan Guo, Violeta Gonzalez-Perez, Qi Guo +12

We compare global predictions from the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulation, and two semi-analytic (SA) models of galaxy formation, L-GALAXIES and GALFORM. All three models include the…

The distribution of atomic hydrogen in EAGLE galaxies: morphologies, profiles, and HI holes

Yannick M. Bahe, Robert A. Crain, Guinevere Kauffmann +8

We compare the mass and internal distribution of atomic hydrogen (HI) in 2200 present-day central galaxies with M_star > 10^10 M_Sun from the 100 Mpc EAGLE Reference simulation to…
