NIHAO XX: The impact of the star formation threshold on the cusp-core transformation of cold dark matter haloes
Aaron A. Dutton, Andrea V. Macciò, Tobias Buck +3
We use cosmological hydrodynamical galaxy formation simulations from the NIHAO project to investigate the impact of the threshold for star formation on the response of the dark mat…
NIHAO XVII: The diversity of dwarf galaxy kinematics and implications for the HI velocity function
Aaron A. Dutton, Aura Obreja, Andrea V. Macciò
We use 85 pairs of high resolution LCDM cosmological simulations from the NIHAO project to investigate why in dwarf galaxies neutral hydrogen (HI) linewidths measured at 50% of the…
Stars behind bars II: A cosmological formation scenario for the Milky Way's central stellar structure
Tobias Buck, Melissa Ness, Aura Obreja +2
The stellar populations in the inner kiloparsecs of the Milky Way (MW) show complex kinematical and chemical structures. The origin and evolution of these structures is still under…
Morphology and kinematics of orbital components in CALIFA galaxies across the Hubble sequence
Ling Zhu, Glenn van de Ven, Jairo Méndez-Abreu +1
Based on the stellar orbit distribution derived from orbit-superposition Schwarzschild models, we decompose each of 250 representative present-day galaxies into four orbital compon…
Introducing galactic structure finder: the multiple stellar kinematic structures of a simulated Milky Way mass galaxy
Aura Obreja, Andrea V. Macciò, Benjamin Moster +4
We present the first results of applying Gaussian Mixture Models in the stellar kinematic space of normalized angular momentum and binding energy on NIHAO high resolution galaxies…
NIHAO XVI: The properties and evolution of kinematically selected discs, bulges and stellar haloes
Aura Obreja, Aaron A. Dutton, Andrea V. Macciò +6
We use 25 simulated galaxies from the NIHAO project to define and characterize a variety of kinematic stellar structures: thin and thick discs, large scale single discs, classical…
NIHAO XV: The environmental impact of the host galaxy on galactic satellite and field dwarf galaxies
Tobias Buck, Andrea V. Macciò, Aaron A. Dutton +2
We study the impact of the host on dwarf galaxy properties using four new Milky Way-like, ultra high-resolution simulations, () from the NIHAO project. We split…
