The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 2: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on the Stellar Morphology of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Galaxy mergers, with their high sensitivity to initial conditions, provide a valuable setting for comparative studies of galaxy simulation codes. Following our first paper focusing…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 1: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on Star Formation of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Given their highly nonlinear dynamics and sensitivity to initial conditions, galaxy mergers are a compelling area to conduct a simulation code comparison. We perform a comparative…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. XI: Solving the Non-Spherical Morphology and Evolution of Dark Matter Halos with Haskap Pie
Kirk S. S. Barrow, Thinh Huu Nguyen, Santi Roca-FÃ brega +26
We introduce a halo solving and tracking procedure that intrinsically treats dark matter halos as non-spherical objects by leveraging the bound particle searching techniques used i…
Impact of Cosmic Filaments on Galaxy Morphological Evolution and Predictions of Early Cosmic Web Structure for Roman
Farhanul Hasan, Haowen Zhang, Viraj Pandya +10
We leverage the IllustrisTNG cosmological simulations to test how the large-scale cosmic web shapes galaxy morphology and to forecast the early cosmic web structure that the Nancy…
Universal Dark-matter Density Profiles of Cosmic Filaments
Peng Xu, Fangzhou Jiang, Farhanul Hasan +5
We present a comprehensive analysis of the radial dark-matter (DM) density profiles of cosmic filaments in the hydrodynamical simulation TNG50. The cosmic web is extracted from hig…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. X: Formation and Evolution of Galaxies at the High-redshift Frontier
Hyeonyong Kim, Ji-hoon Kim, Minyong Jung +22
Recent observations from JWST have revealed unexpectedly luminous galaxies, exhibiting stellar masses and luminosities significantly higher than predicted by theoretical models at…
