Quenched, bulge-dominated, but dynamically cold galaxies in IllustrisTNG and their real-world counterparts

Galaxy morphologies, kinematics, and stellar populations are thought to be linked to each other. However, both simulations and observations have pointed out mismatches therein. In this work, we study the nature and origin of the present-day quenched, bulge-dominated, but dynamically cold galaxies wi...
