Similar star formation rate and metallicity evolution timescales drive the fundamental metallicity relation

Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger, Lars Hernquist +10

The fundamental metallicity relation (FMR) is a postulated correlation between galaxy stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR), and gas-phase metallicity. At its core, this relation…

The evolution of the mass-metallicity relation in IllustrisTNG

Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger, Federico Marinacci +8

The coevolution of galaxies and their metal content serves as an important test for galaxy feedback models. We analyze the distribution and evolution of metals within the Illustris…

Supermassive black holes and their feedback effects in the IllustrisTNG simulation

Rainer Weinberger, Volker Springel, Rüdiger Pakmor +8

We study the population of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their effects on massive central galaxies in the IllustrisTNG cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy form…

A census of cool core galaxy clusters in IllustrisTNG

David J. Barnes, Mark Vogelsberger, Rahul Kannan +10

The thermodynamic structure of hot gas in galaxy clusters is sensitive to astrophysical processes and typically difficult to model with galaxy formation simulations. We explore the…

The Size Evolution of Star-forming and Quenched Galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulation

Shy Genel, Dylan Nelson, Annalisa Pillepich +8

We analyze scaling relations and evolution histories of galaxy sizes in TNG100, part of the IllustrisTNG simulation suite. Observational qualitative trends of size with stellar mas…

The uniformity and time-invariance of the intra-cluster metal distribution in galaxy clusters from the IllustrisTNG simulations

Mark Vogelsberger, Federico Marinacci, Paul Torrey +8

The distribution of metals in the intra-cluster medium encodes important information about the enrichment history and formation of galaxy clusters. Here we explore the metal conten…
