High and low Sérsic index bulges in Milky Way- and M31-like galaxies: origin and connection to the bar with TNG50
Ignacio D. Gargiulo, Antonela Monachesi, Facundo A. Gómez +8
We study bulge formation in MW/M31-like galaxies in a -cold dark matter scenario, focusing on the origin of high- and low-Sersic index bulges. For this purpose we use TNG50, a s…
The Photo-Astrometric Vertical Tracer Density of the Milky Way II: Results from Gaia
Andrew Everall, Vasily Belokurov, N. Wyn Evans +2
We use Gaia photometry and astrometry to estimate the vertical spatial structure of the Milky Way at the Solar radius, formally accounting for sample incompleteness (the selection…
The Photo-Astrometric Vertical Tracer Density of the Milky Way I: The Method
Andrew Everall, N. Wyn Evans, Vasily Belokurov +2
We introduce a method to infer the vertical distribution of stars in the Milky Way using a Poisson likelihood function, with a view to applying our method to the Gaia catalogue. We…
The impact of natal kicks on galactic r-process enrichment by neutron star mergers
Freeke van de Voort, Rüdiger Pakmor, Rebekka Bieri +1
We study galactic enrichment with rapid neutron capture (r-process) elements in cosmological, magnetohydrodynamical simulations of a Milky Way-mass galaxy. We include a variety of…
The effects of AGN feedback on the structural and dynamical properties of Milky Way-mass galaxies in cosmological simulations
Dimitrios Irodotou, Francesca Fragkoudi, Ruediger Pakmor +6
Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) has become established as a fundamental process in the evolution of the most massive galaxies. Its impact on Milky Way (MW)-mass systems,…
The galaxy size to halo spin relation of disk galaxies in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations
Hang Yang, Liang Gao, Carlos S. Frenk +4
In the standard disk galaxy formation model, the sizes of galactic disks are tightly related to the spin parameters of their dark matter haloes. The model has been wildly adopt…
