The Star-Formation Properties of the Observed and Simulated AGN Universe: BAT vs EAGLE
Thomas M. Jackson, D. J. Rosario, D. M. Alexander +3
In this paper we present data from 72 low redshift, hard X-ray selected AGN taken from the {\it Swift}-BAT 58 month catalogue. We utilise spectral energy distribution fitting to th…
Interacting galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulations -- I: Triggered star formation in a cosmological context
David R. Patton, Kieran D. Wilson, Colin J. Metrow +7
We use the IllustrisTNG cosmological hydrodynamical simulations to investigate how the specific star formation rates (sSFRs) of massive galaxies depend on…
Setting the Stage: Structures from Gaussian Random Fields
Till Sawala, Adrian Jenkins, Stuart McAlpine +4
We study structure formation in a set of cosmological simulations to uncover the scales in the initial density field that gave rise to the formation of present-day structures. Our…
Galaxy mergers in EAGLE do not induce a significant amount of black hole growth yet do increase the rate of luminous AGN
Stuart McAlpine, Chris M. Harrison, David J. Rosario +4
We investigate the connection between galaxy--galaxy mergers and enhanced black hole (BH) growth using the cosmological hydrodynamical EAGLE simulation. We do this via three method…
