The Auriga Project: the properties and formation mechanisms of disc galaxies across cosmic time
Robert J. J. Grand, Facundo A. Gómez, Federico Marinacci +6
We introduce a suite of thirty cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical zoom simulations of the formation of galaxies in isolated Milky Way mass dark haloes. These were carried out with…
Spiral-induced velocity and metallicity patterns in a cosmological zoom simulation of a Milky Way-sized galaxy
Robert J. J. Grand, Volker Springel, Daisuke Kawata +6
We use a high resolution cosmological zoom simulation of a Milky Way-sized halo to study the observable features in velocity and metallicity space associated with the dynamical inf…
Knowing the unknowns: uncertainties in simple estimators of galactic dynamical masses
David J. R. Campbell, Carlos S. Frenk, Adrian Jenkins +7
The observed stellar kinematics of dispersion-supported galaxies are often used to measure dynamical masses. Recently, several analytical relationships between the stellar line-of-…
