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 ...

Swift : a modern highly parallel gravity and smoothed particle hydrodynamics solver for astrophysical and cosmological applications

Yves Revaz, Loïc Hausammann, Matthieu Schaller, Mladen Ivkovic, Zhen Xiang

Numerical simulations have become one of the key tools used by theorists in all the fields of astrophysics and cosmology. The development of modern tools that target the largest existing computing systems and exploit state-of-the-art numerical methods and ...

The phase-space distribution of the M 81 satellite system

Oliver Müller, Nick Heesters

The spatial distribution of dwarf galaxies around their host galaxies is a critical test for the standard model of cosmology because it probes the dynamics of dark matter halos and is independent of the internal baryonic processes of galaxies. Comoving pla ...

A too-many-dwarf-galaxy-satellites problem in the M 83 group

Yves Revaz, Oliver Müller

Dwarf galaxies in groups of galaxies provide excellent test cases for models of structure formation. This led to a so-called small-scale crisis, including the famous missing-satellites and too-big-to-fail problems. It was suggested that these two problems ...

Emission-line properties of IllustrisTNG galaxies: from local diagnostic diagrams to high-redshift predictions for JWST

Michaela Hirschmann, Adèle Marie Françoise Plat

We compute synthetic, rest-frame optical and ultraviolet (UV) emission-line properties of galaxy populations at redshifts from z approximate to 0 to =8 in a full cosmological framework. We achieve this by coupling, in post-processing, the cosmological Illu ...

Euclid preparation XXIV. Calibration of the halo mass function in λ(ν)CDM cosmologies

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Gianluca Castignani, Austin Chandler Peel, Maurizio Martinelli, Slobodan Ilic, Yi Wang, Fabio Finelli, Marcello Farina

Euclid's photometric galaxy cluster survey has the potential to be a very competitive cosmological probe. The main cosmological probe with observations of clusters is their number count, within which the halo mass function (HMF) is a key theoretical quanti ...

GOGREEN: A critical assessment of environmental trends in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations at z approximate to 1

Pascale Jablonka, Hung-Hsu Chan

Recent observations have shown that the environmental quenching of galaxies at z & SIM; 1 is qualitatively different to that in the local Universe. However, the physical origin of these differences has not yet been elucidated. In addition, while low-redshi ...

The imprint of galaxy mergers on satellite planes in a cosmological context

Oliver Müller

Flattened and kinematically correlated planes of dwarf satellite galaxies have been observed in the Local Volume. The slinging out of satellites during host galaxy mergers has been suggested as a formation mechanism for these peculiar structures. We statis ...

The connection between mergers and AGN activity in simulated and observed massive galaxies

Michaela Hirschmann

We analyse a suite of 29 high-resolution zoom-in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations of massive galaxies with stellar masses M-star > 10(10.9) M-circle dot, with the goal of better understanding merger activity among active galactic nuclei (AGN), AGN act ...

Subhalo abundance matching through the lens of a hydrodynamical simulation

Ginevra Favole

We use the IllustrisTNG100 hydrodynamical simulation to study the dependence of the galaxy two-point correlation function on a broad range of secondary subhalo and galactic properties. We construct galaxy mock catalogues adopting a standard subhalo abundan ...
