When galaxies align: intrinsic alignments of the progenitors of elliptical galaxies in the Horizon-AGN simulation
Elliptical galaxies today appear aligned with the large-scale structure of the Universe, but it is still an open question when they acquire this alignment. Observational data is currently insufficient to provide constraints on the time evolution of intrinsic alignments, and hence existing models ran...
