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…
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…
J-PAS: unprecedented precision in stellar populations of diffuse tidal features
Sepideh Eskandarlou, Mohammad Akhlaghi, Francisco Arizo-Borillo +38
Galaxies frequently interact with nearby systems, a process that can significantly alter their morphology and star formation activity. However, spectroscopic studies of their faint…
Velocity dispersion profiles of dwarf spheroidal galaxies with self-interacting ultralight dark matter
K. Korshynska, E. V. Gorbar, Y. M. Bidasyuk +2
Dark-matter-dominated dwarf galaxies provide an excellent laboratory for testing dark matter models at small scale and, in particular, the ultralight dark matter (ULDM) class of mo…
