Disk galaxies at z=2 in OWLS
Julio F. Navarro, Laura V. Sales, Joop Schaye +2
We use the OWLS (OverWhelmingly Large Simulations) set of cosmological Nbody/gasdynamical simulations to study the properties of simulated galaxies at z=2. We focus on the effect o…
The Origin of Extended Disk Galaxies at z=2
Laura V. Sales, Julio F. Navarro, Joop Schaye +4
Galaxy formation models typically assume that the size and rotation speed of galaxy disks are largely dictated by the mass, concentration, and spin of their surrounding dark matter…
An Alternative Origin for Hypervelocity Stars
Mario G. Abadi, Julio F. Navarro, Matthias Steinmetz
Halo stars with unusually high radial velocity ("hypervelocity" stars, or HVS) are thought to be stars unbound to the Milky Way that originate from the gravitational interaction of…
A blueprint for detecting supersymmetric dark matter in the Galactic halo
Volker Springel, Simon D. M. White, Carlos S. Frenk +6
Dark matter is the dominant form of matter in the universe, but its nature is unknown. It is plausibly an elementary particle, perhaps the lightest supersymmetric partner of known…
Estimation of the Tilt of the Stellar Velocity Ellipsoid from RAVE and Implications for Mass Models
A. Siebert, O. Bienaymé, J. Binney +16
We present a measure of the inclination of the velocity ellipsoid at 1 kpc below the Galactic plane using a sample of red clump giants from the RAVE DR2 release. We find that the v…
Diffuse interstellar bands in RAVE Survey spectra
U. Munari, L. Tomasella, M. Fiorucci +19
We have used spectra of hot stars from the RAVE Survey in order to investigate the visibility and properties of five diffuse interstellar bands previously reported in the literatur…
