Predictions for the Angular Dependence of Gas Mass Flow Rate and Metallicity in the Circumgalactic Medium

Celine Peroux, Dylan Nelson, Freeke van de Voort +4

We use cosmological hydrodynamical simulations to examine the physical properties of the gas in the circumgalactic media (CGM) of star-forming galaxies as a function of angular ori…

Resolving small-scale cold circumgalactic gas in TNG50

Dylan Nelson, Prateek Sharma, Annalisa Pillepich +6

We use the high-resolution TNG50 cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulation to explore the properties and origin of cold circumgalactic medium (CGM) gas around massive galaxies…

A missing outskirts problem? Comparisons between stellar halos in the Dragonfly Nearby Galaxies Survey and the TNG100 simulation

Allison Merritt, Annalisa Pillepich, Pieter van Dokkum +4

Low surface brightness galactic stellar halos provide a challenging but promising path towards unraveling the past assembly histories of individual galaxies. Here, we present detai…

Ejective and preventative: the IllustrisTNG black hole feedback and its effects on the thermodynamics of the gas within and around galaxies

Elad Zinger, Annalisa Pillepich, Dylan Nelson +6

Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) which reside at the centres of galaxies can inject vast amounts of energy into the surrounding gas and are thought to be a viable mechanism to quen…

The fate of disk galaxies in IllustrisTNG clusters

Gandhali D. Joshi, Annalisa Pillepich, Dylan Nelson +5

We study the stellar morphological evolution of disc galaxies within clusters in the TNG50 and TNG100 runs from the IllustrisTNG simulation suite. We select satellites of masses $1…

High redshift JWST predictions from IllustrisTNG: II. Galaxy line and continuum spectral indices and dust attenuation curves

Xuejian Shen, Mark Vogelsberger, Dylan Nelson +6

We present predictions for high redshift () galaxy populations based on the IllustrisTNG simulation suite and a full Monte Carlo dust radiative transfer post-processing. Sp…
