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…

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…

The APOSTLE simulations: solutions to the Local Group's cosmic puzzles

Till Sawala, Carlos S. Frenk, Azadeh Fattahi +13

The Local Group of galaxies offer some of the most discriminating tests of models of cosmic structure formation. For example, observations of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda satel…

Size evolution of normal and compact galaxies in the EAGLE simulation

M. Furlong, R. G. Bower, R. A. Crain +7

We present the evolution of galaxy sizes, from redshift 2 to 0, for actively star forming and passive galaxies in the cosmological hydrodynamical 1003 cMpc3 simulation of the EAGLE…

The fundamental plane of star formation in galaxies revealed by the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulations

Claudia del P. Lagos, Tom Theuns, Joop Schaye +6

We investigate correlations between different physical properties of star-forming galaxies in the "Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments" (EAGLE) cosmological h…

The EAGLE simulations of galaxy formation: public release of halo and galaxy catalogues

Stuart McAlpine, John C. Helly, Matthieu Schaller +16

We present the public data release of halo and galaxy catalogues extracted from the EAGLE suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation. These simulations we…

Simulated Milky Way analogues: implications for dark matter indirect searches

F. Calore, N. Bozorgnia, M. Lovell +7

We study high-resolution hydrodynamic simulations of Milky Way type galaxies obtained within the "Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments" (EAGLE) project, and id…

Colours and luminosities of z=0.1 simulated galaxies in the EAGLE simulations

James W. Trayford, Tom Theuns, Richard G. Bower +7

We calculate the colours and luminosities of redshift z = 0.1 galaxies from the EAGLE simulation suite using the GALAXEV population synthesis models. We take into account obscurati…

Molecular hydrogen abundances of galaxies in the EAGLE simulations

Claudia del P. Lagos, Robert A. Crain, Joop Schaye +8

We investigate the abundance of galactic molecular hydrogen (H) in the "Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments" (EAGLE) cosmological hydrodynamic simulations…

The EAGLE simulations of galaxy formation: calibration of subgrid physics and model variations

Robert A. Crain, Joop Schaye, Richard G. Bower +11

We present results from thirteen cosmological simulations that explore the parameter space of the "Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments" (EAGLE) simulation pro…
