The origin of the mass discrepancy-acceleration relation in CDM

Julio F. Navarro, Alejandro Benítez-Llambay, Azadeh Fattahi +5

We examine the origin of the mass discrepancy--radial acceleration relation (MDAR) of disk galaxies. This is a tight empirical correlation between the disk centripetal acceleration…

Tidal features of classical Milky Way satellites in a CDM universe

M. -Y. Wang, Azadeh Fattahi, Andrew P. Cooper +6

We use the APOSTLE cosmological hydrodynamic simulations to examine the effects of tidal stripping on cold dark matter (CDM) sub haloes that host three of the most luminous Milky W…

The Mass-Discrepancy Acceleration Relation: a Natural Outcome of Galaxy Formation in Cold Dark Matter halos

Aaron D. Ludlow, Alejandro Benitez-Llambay, Matthieu Schaller +8

We analyze the total and baryonic acceleration profiles of a set of well-resolved galaxies identified in the EAGLE suite of hydrodynamic simulations. Our runs start from the same i…

The oldest and most metal poor stars in the APOSTLE Local Group simulations

Else Starkenburg, Kyle A. Oman, Julio F. Navarro +5

We examine the spatial distribution of the oldest and most metal poor stellar populations of Milky Way-sized galaxies using the APOSTLE cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of t…

Shaken and Stirred: The Milky Way's Dark Substructures

Till Sawala, Pauli Pihajoki, Peter H. Johansson +4

The predicted abundance and properties of the low-mass substructures embedded inside larger dark matter haloes differ sharply among alternative dark matter models. Too small to hos…

Satellite quenching timescales in clusters from projected phase space measurements matched to simulated orbits

Kyle A. Oman, Michael J. Hudson

We measure the star formation quenching efficiency and timescale in cluster environments. Our method uses N-body simulations to estimate the probability distribution of possible or…
