The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. V. Satellite Galaxy Populations in a Cosmological Zoom-in Simulation of a Milky Way-Mass Halo
Yves Revaz, Loïc Hausammann, Alessandro Lupi
We analyze and compare the satellite halo populations at z similar to 2 in the high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations of a 1012 M circle dot target halo (z = 0 mass) carried out on eight widely used astrophysical simulation codes (Art-I, Enzo, Ra ...
Bristol2024Hydrodynamical simulations of merging galaxy clusters: giant dark matter particle colliders, powered by gravity
David Richard Harvey, Richard Massey
Terrestrial particle accelerators collide charged particles, then watch the trajectory of outgoing debris - but they cannot manipulate dark matter. Fortunately, dark matter is the main component of galaxy clusters, which are continuously pulled together by ...
Oxford Univ Press2024COSMOS-Web: An Overview of the JWST Cosmic Origins Survey
Michaela Hirschmann, Richard Massey
We present the survey design, implementation, and outlook for COSMOS-Web, a 255 hr treasury program conducted by the James Webb Space Telescope in its first cycle of observations. COSMOS-Web is a contiguous 0.54 deg² NIRCam imaging survey in four filters ( ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2023Hadronic nature of high-energy emission from the Galactic ridge
We show that the IceCube observation of the Galactic neutrino-flux component confirms the hint of detection of neutrinos from the Galactic ridge (the inner part of the Milky Way disk within the Galactic longitude IlI < 30(degrees)), previously reported by ...
College Pk2023The evolution of the Milky Way's thin disc radial metallicity gradient with K2 asteroseismic ages
The radial metallicity distribution of the Milky Way's disc is an important observational constraint for models of the formation and evolution of our Galaxy. It informs our understanding of the chemical enrichment of the Galactic disc and the dynamical pro ...
Oxford2023Fuelling the nuclear ring of NGC 1097
Galactic bars can drive cold gas inflows towards the centres of galaxies. The gas transport happens primarily through the so-called bar dust lanes, which connect the galactic disc at kpc scales to the nuclear rings at hundreds of pc scales much like two gi ...
2023The extended stellar halo' of the Ursa Minor dwarf galaxy
Stellar candidates in the Ursa Minor (UMi) dwarf galaxy have been found using a new Bayesian algorithm applied to Gaia EDR3 data. Five of these targets are located in the extreme outskirts of UMi, from similar to 5 to 12 elliptical half-light radii (r h), ...
OXFORD UNIV PRESS2023The DESI One-Percent Survey: Constructing Galaxy-Halo Connections for ELGs and LRGs Using Auto and Cross Correlations
In the current Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey, emission line galaxies (ELGs) and luminous red galaxies (LRGs) are essential for mapping the dark matter distribution at < N(M)>. We measure the auto and cross correlation functions of ELGs ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2023DESI mock challenge Halo and galaxy catalogues with the bias assignment method
Cheng Zhao, Ginevra Favole, Yu Yu
Context. We present a novel approach to the construction of mock galaxy catalogues for large-scale structure analysis based on the distribution of dark matter halos obtained with effective bias models at the field level. Aims. We aim to produce mock galaxy ...
EDP SCIENCES S A2023Gaia Focused Product Release: Spatial distribution of two diffuse interstellar bands
Stephan Morgenthaler, Shuangqing Liao
Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) are absorption features seen in optical and infrared spectra of stars and extragalactic objects that are probably caused by large and complex molecules in the galactic interstellar medium (ISM). Here we investigate the Gal ...
