VERTICO: The Virgo Environment Traced In CO Survey
Toby Brown, Christine D. Wilson, Nikki Zabel +33
We present the Virgo Environment Traced in CO (VERTICO) survey, a new effort to map CO(), CO(), and CO() in 51 Virgo Cluster galaxies with the A…
Gas flows in galaxy mergers: supersonic turbulence in bridges, accretion from the circumgalactic medium, and metallicity dilution
Martin Sparre, Joseph Whittingham, Mitali Damle +5
In major galaxy mergers, the orbits of stars are violently perturbed, and gas is torqued to the centre, diluting the gas metallicity and igniting a starburst. In this paper, we stu…
Towards robust determination of non-parametric morphologies in marginal astronomical data: resolving uncertainties with cosmological hydrodynamical simulations
Mallory D. Thorp, Asa F. L. Bluck, Sara L. Ellison +4
Quantitative morphologies, such as asymmetry and concentration, have long been used as an effective way to assess the distribution of galaxy starlight in large samples. Application…
Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations -- III: (the rarity of) quenching in post-merger galaxies
Salvatore Quai, Maan H. Hani, Sara L. Ellison +2
Galaxy mergers are traditionally one of the favoured mechanisms for quenching star formation. To test this paradigm in the context of modern cosmological simulations, we use the Il…
The Structural Evolution of Isolated Galaxies at Low Redshift in the IllustrisTNG Simulation
Dan Walters, Joanna Woo, Sara L. Ellison +1
We study the structural evolution of isolated star-forming galaxies in the Illustris TNG100-1 hydrodynamical simulation, with a focus on investigating the growth of the central cor…
Convolutional neural network identification of galaxy post-mergers in UNIONS using IllustrisTNG
Robert W. Bickley, Connor Bottrell, Maan H. Hani +6
The Canada-France Imaging Survey (CFIS) will consist of deep, high-resolution r-band imaging over ~5000 square degrees of the sky, representing a first-rate opportunity to identify…
