The SAMI Galaxy Survey: comparing 3D spectroscopic observations with galaxies from cosmological hydrodynamical simulations

Jesse van de Sande, Claudia D. P. Lagos, Charlotte Welker +19

Cosmological hydrodynamical simulations are rich tools to understand the build-up of stellar mass and angular momentum in galaxies, but require some level of calibration to observa…

Gone after one orbit: How cluster environments quench galaxies

Marcel Lotz, Rhea-Silvia Remus, Klaus Dolag +2

The effect of galactic orbits on a galaxy's internal evolution within a galaxy cluster environment has been the focus of heated debate in recent years. To understand this connectio…

SOLAR: Deep Structured Representations for Model-Based Reinforcement Learning

Marvin Zhang, Sharad Vikram, Laura Smith +3

Model-based reinforcement learning (RL) has proven to be a data efficient approach for learning control tasks but is difficult to utilize in domains with complex observations such…

Metallicity gradients in the globular cluster systems of early-type galaxies: In-situ and accreted components?

Duncan A. Forbes, Rhea-Silvia Remus

Massive early-type galaxies typically have two subpopulations of globular clusters (GCs) which often reveal radial colour (metallicity) gradients. Collating gradients from the lite…

Cosmological simulations of black hole growth II: how (in)significant are merger events for fuelling nuclear activity?

Lisa K. Steinborn, Michaela Hirschmann, Klaus Dolag +5

Which mechanism(s) are mainly driving nuclear activity in the centres of galaxies is a major unsettled question. In this study, we investigate the statistical relevance of galaxy m…

The SLUGGS Survey: A comparison of total-mass profiles of early-type galaxies from observations and cosmological simulations, to 4 effective radii

Sabine Bellstedt, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +11

We apply the Jeans Anisotropic MGE (JAM) dynamical modelling method to SAGES Legacy Unifying Globulars and GalaxieS (SLUGGS) survey data of early-type galaxies in the stellar mass…
