Galaxy interactions in IllustrisTNG-100, I: The power and limitations of visual identification

© 2019 The Author(s) We present a sample of 446 galaxy pairs constructed using the cosmological simulation IllustrisTNG-100 at z = 0, with MFoF,dm = 1011-1013.5 M☉. We produce ideal mock SDSS g-band images of all pairs to test the reliability of visual classification schema employed to produce sampl...
