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…

Witnessing galaxy assembly in an extended z~3 structure

Michele Fumagalli, Ruari Mackenzie, James Trayford +9

We present new observations acquired with the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer instrument on the Very Large Telescope in a quasar field that hosts a high column-density damped Lyα…

Optical colours and spectral indices of EAGLE galaxies with 3D dust radiative transfer code SKIRT

James W. Trayford, Peter Camps, Tom Theuns +7

We present mock optical images, broad-band and H fluxes, and D4000 spectral indices for 30,145 galaxies from the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulation at redshift , modelling d…

The Hydrangea simulations: galaxy formation in and around massive clusters

Yannick M. Bahé, David J. Barnes, Claudio Dalla Vecchia +12

We introduce the Hydrangea simulations, a suite of 24 cosmological hydrodynamic zoom-in simulations of massive galaxy clusters (M_200c = 10^14-10^15 M_Sun) with baryon particle mas…

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…

Quantifying the impact of mergers on the angular momentum of simulated galaxies

Claudia del P. Lagos, Adam R. H. Stevens, Richard G. Bower +8

We use EAGLE to quantify the effect galaxy mergers have on the stellar specific angular momentum of galaxies, . We split mergers into: dry (gas-poor)/wet (gas-rich),…
