Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations -- VI: Reconstructed orbits, close encounters and mergers
David R. Patton, Lawrence Faria, Maan H. Hani +4
Cosmological simulations have been used to study interacting galaxies as a function of galaxy pair separation, enabling comparisons with observational studies of galaxy pairs. The…
Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations -- VII: The connection between the most luminous active galactic nuclei and galaxy interactions
Shoshannah Byrne-Mamahit, David R. Patton, Sara L. Ellison +5
We investigate the connection between the most luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN), galaxy pairs, and post-mergers in the IllustrisTNG simulation. We select galaxy pairs and post…
Kinematics of the Local Group gas and galaxies in the Hestia simulations
Luis Biaus, Sebastián E. Nuza, Cecilia Scannapieco
The Local Group (LG) consists of two giant spiral galaxies, the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31), and several smaller galaxies. The MW and M31 are approaching each other at a rad…
The interconnection between galaxy mergers, AGN activity and rapid quenching of star formation in simulated post-merger galaxies
Salvatore Quai, Shoshannah Byrne-Mamahit, Sara L. Ellison +2
We investigate the role of galaxy mergers on supermassive black hole (SMBH) accretion and star formation quenching in three state-of-the-art cosmological simulations with contrasti…
Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations -- IV: Enhanced Supermassive Black Hole Accretion Rates in Post-Merger Galaxies
Shoshannah Byrne-Mamahit, Maan Hani, Sara Ellison +2
We present an analysis of the instantaneous supermassive black hole (SMBH) accretion rates in a collection of 1563 post-merger galaxies drawn from the IllustrisTNG simulation. Our…
Kinematics of the Local Group gas and galaxies in the Hestia simulations
Luis Biaus, Sebastián E. Nuza, Philipp Richter +8
We investigate the kinematic properties of gas and galaxies in the Local Group (LG) using high-resolution simulations performed by the {\sc Hestia} (High-resolution Environmental S…
