Photometric analysis of the intracluster light in the TNG300 simulation and wide-field observations
Daniel Montenegro-Taborda, Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez, Vladimir Avila-Reese +5
We present a robust, apples-to-apples comparison between the photometric properties of the intracluster light (ICL) in the TNG300 magnetohydrodynamic cosmological simulation and th…
Study of barred galaxies in IllustrisTNG100: the case of low surface brightness galaxies
Karol Chim-Ramirez, Bernardo Cervantes-Sodi, Yetli Rosas-Guevara +2
In this work, we compare the presence of stellar bars in low and high surface brightness galaxies (LSBs and HSBs, respectively) using the TNG100 simulation of the IllustrisTNG proj…
The stellar mass composition of galaxy clusters and dependencies on dark matter halo properties
Daniel Montenegro-Taborda, Vladimir Avila-Reese, Vicente Rodriguez-Gomez +2
We analyze 700 clusters from the TNG300 hydrodynamical simulation ( at (z=0)) to examine the radial stellar mass distribution of their centra…
Gravity or turbulence? VI. The physics behind the Kennicutt-Schmidt relations
Javier Ballesteros-Paredes, Manuel Zamora-Avilés, Carlos Román-Zúñiga +6
We explain the large variety of star formation laws in terms of one single, simple law that can be inferred from the definition of the star formation rate and basic algebra. The re…
