Black Hole Starvation and Bulge Evolution in a Milky Way-like Galaxy

Silvia Bonoli, Lucio Mayer, Stelios Kazantzidis +3

We present a new zoom-in hydrodynamical simulation, "Erisbh", which follows the cosmological evolution and feedback effects of a supermassive black hole at the center of a Milky Wa…

The ACS LCID Project: On the origin of dwarf galaxy types: a manifestation of the halo assembly bias?

C. Gallart, M. Monelli, L. Mayer +13

We discuss how knowledge of the whole evolutionary history of dwarf galaxies, including details on the early star formation events, can provide insight on the origin of the differe…

The evolution of dwarf galaxy satellites with different dark matter density profiles in the ErisMod simulations. I. The early infalls

Mihai Tomozeiu, Lucio Mayer, Thomas Quinn

We present the first simulations of tidal stirring of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group carried out in a cosmological context. We use the ErisDARK simulation of a MW-sized galaxy t…

Diffuse coronae in cosmological simulations of Milky Way-sized galaxies

Aleksandra Sokołowska, Lucio Mayer, Arif Babul +2

We investigate the properties of halo gas using three cosmological `zoom-in' simulations of realistic Milky Way-galaxy analogs with varying sub-grid physics. In all three cases, th…

On the gap-opening criterion of migrating planets in protoplanetary disks

Matej Malik, Farzana Meru, Lucio Mayer +1

We perform two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations to quantitatively explore the torque balance criterion for gap-opening (as formulated by Crida et al. 2006) in a variety of di…
