Data release of UV to submm broadband fluxes for simulated galaxies from the EAGLE project

Peter Camps, Ana Trčka, James Trayford +6

We present dust-attenuated and dust emission fluxes for sufficiently resolved galaxies in the EAGLE suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations, calculated with the SKIRT radi…

The diverse density profiles of galaxy clusters with self-interacting dark matter plus baryons

Andrew Robertson, Richard Massey, Vincent Eke +10

We present the first simulated galaxy clusters (M_200 > 10^14 Msun) with both self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) and baryonic physics. They exhibit a greater diversity in both dar…

Tidal dwarf galaxies in cosmological simulations

Sylvia Ploeckinger, Kuldeep Sharma, Joop Schaye +3

The formation and evolution of gravitationally bound, star forming substructures in tidal tails of interacting galaxies, called tidal dwarf galaxies (TDG), has been studied, until…

The impact of dark energy on galaxy formation. What does the future of our Universe hold?

Jaime Salcido, Richard G. Bower, Luke A. Barnes +6

We investigate the effect of the accelerated expansion of the Universe due to a cosmological constant, , on the cosmic star formation rate. We utilise hydrodynamical simulations…

Comparing galaxy formation in semi-analytic models and hydrodynamical simulations

Peter D. Mitchell, Cedric G. Lacey, Claudia D. P. Lagos +7

It is now possible for hydrodynamical simulations to reproduce a representative galaxy population. Accordingly, it is timely to assess critically some of the assumptions of traditi…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: understanding observations of large-scale outflows at low redshift with EAGLE simulations

E. Tescari, L. Cortese, C. Power +23

This work presents a study of galactic outflows driven by stellar feedback. We extract main sequence disc galaxies with stellar mass MM$_{\odot} \le 5.7\times1…

The evolution of the star formation rate function in the EAGLE simulations: A comparison with UV, IR and H observations from z ~ 8 to z ~ 0

A. Katsianis, G. Blanc, C. P. Lagos +7

We investigate the evolution of the galaxy Star Formation Rate Function (SFRF) and Cosmic Star Formation Rate Density (CSFRD) of galaxies in the Evolution and Assembly…

Tidal stripping and the structure of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group

Azadeh Fattahi, Julio F. Navarro, Carlos S. Frenk +3

The shallow faint-end slope of the galaxy mass function is usually reproduced in CDM galaxy formation models by assuming that the fraction of baryons that turns into stars drops…

Reducing biases on measurements using strong lensing and galaxy dynamics: results from the EAGLE simulation

Amitpal S. Tagore, David J. Barnes, Neal Jackson +4

Cosmological parameter constraints from observations of time-delay lenses are becoming increasingly precise. However, there may be significant bias and scatter in these measurement…

The relation between galaxy morphology and colour in the EAGLE simulation

Camila A. Correa, Joop Schaye, Bart Clauwens +5

We investigate the relation between kinematic morphology, intrinsic colour and stellar mass of galaxies in the EAGLE cosmological hydrodynamical simulation. We calculate the intrin…
