Euclid: Early Release Observations -- The formation of peanutty dwarf galaxies in Perseus
A. U. Kapoor, R. Smith, A. J. Zuiderwijk +133
Dwarf galaxies in dense cluster environments are susceptible to tidal interactions that can alter their morphology and kinematics. Boxy isophotes are well studied in massive galaxi…
Constraints on asteroid-mass primordial black holes in dwarf galaxies using Hubble Space Telescope photometry
Nicolas Esser, Carrie Filion, Sven De Rijcke +4
Primordial black holes (PBHs) in the asteroid-mass range remain a viable and until now unconstrained dark matter (DM) candidate. If such PBHs exist, they could be captured by stars…
A tale of two tails: insights from simulations into the formation of the peculiar dwarf galaxy NGC 1427A
Michele Mastropietro, Sven De Rijcke, Reynier Peletier
We present a scenario for the formation and the morphology of the arrow-shaped dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 1427A in the Fornax Cluster. This galaxy shows intriguing stellar and gase…
"Observations" of simulated dwarf galaxies: Star-formation histories from color-magnitude diagrams
Shivangee Rathi, Michele Mastropietro, Sven De Rijcke +3
Apparent deviations between properties of dwarf galaxies from observations and simulations are known to exist, such as the "Missing Dwarfs" problem, the too-big-to-fail problem, an…
Instabilities in disc galaxies: from noise to grooves to spirals
Sven De Rijcke, Jean-Baptiste Fouvry, Christophe Pichon
Using the linearized Boltzmann equation, we investigate how grooves carved in the phase space of a half-mass Mestel disc can trigger the vigorous growth of two-armed spiral eigenmo…
The moving mesh code Shadowfax
Bert Vandenbroucke, Sven De Rijcke
We introduce the moving mesh code Shadowfax, which can be used to evolve a mixture of gas, subject to the laws of hydrodynamics and gravity, and any collisionless fluid only subjec…
