Intrinsic alignment of simulated galaxies in the cosmic web: implications for weak lensing surveys

<p>The intrinsic alignment of galaxy shapes (by means of their angular momentum) and their cross-correlation with the surrounding dark matter tidal field are investigated using the 160 000, <em>z</em> = 1.2 synthetic galaxies extracted from the high-resolution cosmological hydrody...
