Chemodynamics of barred galaxies in cosmological simulations: On the Milky Way's quiescent merger history and in-situ bulge

F. Fragkoudi, R. J. J. Grand, R. Pakmor +9

We explore the chemodynamical properties of a sample of barred galaxies in the Auriga magneto-hydrodynamical cosmological zoom-in simulations, which form boxy/peanut (b/p) bulges,…

Empirical constraints on the formation of early-type galaxies

Benjamin P. Moster, Thorsten Naab, Simon D. M. White

We present constraints on the formation and evolution of early-type galaxies (ETGs) with the empirical model EMERGE. The parameters of this model are adjusted so that it reproduces…

Gas accretion and galactic fountain flows in the Auriga cosmological simulations: angular momentum and metal re-distribution

Robert J. J. Grand, Freeke van de Voort, Jolanta Zjupa +7

Using a set of 15 high-resolution magnetohydrodynamic cosmological simulations of Milky Way formation, we investigate the origin of the baryonic material found in stars at redshift…

The globular cluster system of the Auriga simulations

Timo L. R. Halbesma, Robert J. J. Grand, Facundo A. Gómez +5

We investigate whether the galaxy and star formation model used for the Auriga simulations can produce a realistic globular cluster (GC) population. We compare statistics of GC can…

The prevalence of pseudo-bulges in the Auriga simulations

Ignacio D. Gargiulo, Antonela Monachesi, Facundo A. Gómez +7

We study the galactic bulges in the Auriga simulations, a suite of thirty cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical zoom-in simulations of late-type galaxies in Milky Way-sized dark matt…

The effects of dynamical substructure on Milky Way mass estimates from the high velocity tail of the local stellar halo

Robert J. J. Grand, Alis J. Deason, Simon D. M. White +4

We investigate the impact of dynamical streams and substructure on estimates of the local escape speed and total mass of Milky Way-mass galaxies from modelling the high velocity ta…
