The colours of satellite galaxies in the Illustris simulation by Sales, Laura V., Vogelsberger, Mark, Genel, Shy, Nelson, Dylan, Rodriguez-Gomez, Vicente, Wang, Wenting, Pillepich, Annalisa, Sijacki, Debora, Springel, Volker, Hernquist, Lars, Torrey, Paul A.

“…Observationally, the fraction of blue satellite galaxies decreases steeply with host halo mass, and their radial distribution around central galaxies is significantly shallower in massive (M[subscript *] ≥ 10[superscript 11] M[subscript ⊙]) than in Milky Way-like systems. …”

The Hestia project: simulations of the Local Group by Libeskind, Noam I, Carlesi, Edoardo, Grand, Robert JJ, Khalatyan, Arman, Knebe, Alexander, Pakmor, Ruediger, Pilipenko, Sergey, Pawlowski, Marcel S, Sparre, Martin, Tempel, Elmo, Wang, Peng, Courtois, Hélène M, Gottlöber, Stefan, Hoffman, Yehuda, Minchev, Ivan, Pfrommer, Christoph, Sorce, Jenny G, Springel, Volker, Steinmetz, Matthias, Tully, R Brent, Vogelsberger, Mark, Yepes, Gustavo

“…The simulated Local Group galaxies resemble the Milky Way and Andromeda in terms of their halo mass, mass ratio, stellar disc mass, morphology separation, relative velocity, rotation curves, bulge-disc morphology, satellite galaxy stellar mass function, satellite radial distribution, and in some cases, the presence of a Magellanic cloud like object. …”

Revealing the galaxy–halo connection in IllustrisTNG by Bose, Sownak, Eisenstein, Daniel J, Hernquist, Lars, Pillepich, Annalisa, Nelson, Dylan, Marinacci, Federico, Springel, Volker, Vogelsberger, Mark

“…The radial distribution of satellite galaxies, which exhibits a universal form across a wide range of host halo mass, is described accurately by the best-fitting NFW density profile of their host haloes.…”

Joint galaxy–galaxy lensing and clustering constraints on galaxy formation by Renneby, Malin, Henriques, Bruno MB, Hilbert, Stefan, Nelson, Dylan, Vogelsberger, Mark, Angulo, Raúl E, Springel, Volker, Hernquist, Lars

“…By decreasing the merger time for satellite galaxies as well as reducing the radio-mode active galactic nucleus accretion efficiency in the SAM, we obtain better agreement, both for the lensing and the clustering, at the high-mass end. …”

First results from the IllustrisTNG simulations: the stellar mass content of groups and clusters of galaxies by Pillepich, Annalisa, Nelson, Dylan, Hernquist, Lars, Springel, Volker, Pakmor, Rüdiger, Torrey, Paul, Weinberger, Rainer, Genel, Shy, Naiman, Jill P, Marinacci, Federico, Vogelsberger, Mark

“…The richest clusters have half of their total stellar mass bound to satellite galaxies, with the other half being associated with the central galaxy and the diffuse intracluster light. …”

The abundance of satellites around Milky Way- and M31-like galaxies with the TNG50 simulation: a matter of diversity by Engler, Christoph, Pillepich, Annalisa, Pasquali, Anna, Nelson, Dylan, Rodriguez-Gomez, Vicente, Chua, Kun Ting Eddie, Grebel, Eva K, Springel, Volker, Marinacci, Federico, Weinberger, Rainer, Vogelsberger, Mark, Hernquist, Lars

“…We study the abundance of satellite galaxies around 198 Milky Way- (MW) and M31-like hosts in TNG50, the final installment in the IllustrisTNG suite of cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulations. …”
