Forged in Quenching: Morphological Transformation across Star-forming and Quiescent Galaxies in EAGLE
Kai Wang, Carlton Baugh, Sownak Bose +15
The connection between morphology and quenching in central galaxies is well established, but its physical origin remains widely debated. We address this by tracing the main progeni…
The descendants of JWST galaxies in the COLIBRE simulations
Xu Zhao, Carlos S. Frenk, Andrew Pontzen +9
Recent observations with JWST have revealed a population of UV-bright galaxies at . This discovery naturally raises the question: what do such early galaxies evolve in…
Ruffled Feathers: Merger-driven galaxy size growth and structural transformation in EAGLE
Kai Wang, Carlton Baugh, Sownak Bose +9
Galaxy mergers drive both the size growth and the transformation from discs to spheroids, yet the prescriptions used to model these processes in semi-analytic frameworks have not b…
Inflow-driven galaxy evolution - I. Revealing the physics of the fundamental metallicity relation
Kai Wang, Carlton Baugh, N. F. Boardman +11
We present a unified physical framework for the fundamental metallicity relation (FMR), based on the mass-continuity equations. The FMR is not merely the anti-correlation between s…
A statistical look on kinematic planes of satellite galaxies II: The physics behind their early formation in TNG50 MW/M31-like galaxies
Matías Gámez-Marín, Rosa Domínguez-Tenreiro, Isabel Santos-Santos +2
We investigate the physical origin of kinematically persistent planes (KPPs) of satellite galaxies in a sample of 190 Milky Way (MW)/M31-like host-satellite systems drawn from the…
The missing ultra-faint satellites of the Milky Way
Isabel M. E. Santos-Santos, Carlos S. Frenk, Julio F. Navarro
We combine the highest resolution N-body simulation of a CDM halo (Aquarius-A) with the {\sc GALFORM} galaxy formation semianalytic model to study the f…
