Intrinsic alignments of galaxies in the Illustris simulation

Intrinsic alignments of galaxies in the Illustris simulation

We study intrinsic alignments (IA) of galaxy image shapes within the Illustris cosmic structure formation simulations. We investigate how IA correlations depend on observable galaxy properties such as stellar mass, apparent magnitude, redshift and photometric type, and on the employed shape measurem...
