Compact groups from the Millennium Simulations: I. Their Nature and the completeness of the Hickson sample

Eugenia Diaz-Gimenez, Gary Mamon

We identify compact groups of galaxies (CGs) within mock galaxy catalogues from the Millennium Simulation at z=0 with three semi-analytic models (SAMs) of galaxy formation. CGs are…

An optical view of the filament region of Abell 85

G. Boué, F. Durret, C. Adami +3

We compare the distribution of optically and Halpha (Ha) selected galaxies in the Southern half of the nearby Abell 85 (A85) cluster with the recently discovered X-ray filament (XR…

The nature of the nearest compact group of galaxies from precise distance measurements

Gary A. Mamon

Compact groups (CGs) of galaxies, similar to those catalogued by Hickson, appear to be the densest galaxy structures in the Universe. Redshift information is insufficient to determ…

Tidal evolution of disky dwarf galaxies in the Milky Way potential: the formation of dwarf spheroidals

Jaroslaw Klimentowski, Ewa L. Lokas, Stelios Kazantzidis +2

We conduct high-resolution collisionless N-body simulations to investigate the tidal evolution of dwarf galaxies on an eccentric orbit in the Milky Way (MW) potential. The dwarfs o…

The distribution function of dark matter in massive haloes

Radoslaw Wojtak, Ewa L. Lokas, Gary A. Mamon +3

We study the distribution function (DF) of dark matter particles in haloes of mass range 10^{14}--10^{15}\Msun. In the numerical part of this work we measure the DF for a sample of…
