Supermassive black holes and their feedback effects in the IllustrisTNG simulation

no code implementations12 Oct 2017 Rainer Weinberger, Volker Springel, Rüdiger Pakmor, Dylan Nelson, Shy Genel, Annalisa Pillepich, Mark Vogelsberger, Federico Marinacci, Jill Naiman, Paul Torrey, Lars Hernquist

We show that the quenching of massive central galaxies happens coincidently with kinetic-mode feedback, consistent with the notion that active supermassive black cause the low specific star formation rates observed in massive galaxies.

First results from the IllustrisTNG simulations: radio haloes and magnetic fields

no code implementations11 Jul 2017 Federico Marinacci, Mark Vogelsberger, Rüdiger Pakmor, Paul Torrey, Volker Springel, Lars Hernquist, Dylan Nelson, Rainer Weinberger, Annalisa Pillepich, Jill Naiman, Shy Genel

Using two simple models for the energy distribution of relativistic electrons we predict the diffuse radio emission of $280$ clusters with a baryonic mass resolution of $1. 1\times 10^{7}\,{\rm M_{\odot}}$, and generate mock observations for VLA, LOFAR, ASKAP and SKA.

First results from the IllustrisTNG simulations: the stellar mass content of groups and clusters of galaxies

no code implementations11 Jul 2017 Annalisa Pillepich, Dylan Nelson, Lars Hernquist, Volker Springel, Rüdiger Pakmor, Paul Torrey, Rainer Weinberger, Shy Genel, Jill Naiman, Federico Marinacci, Mark Vogelsberger

Total halo mass is a very good predictor of stellar mass, and vice versa: at $z=0$, the 3D stellar mass measured within 30 kpc scales as $\propto (M_{\rm 500c})^{0. 49}$ with a $\sim 0. 12$ dex scatter.

First results from the IllustrisTNG simulations: matter and galaxy clustering

no code implementations11 Jul 2017 Volker Springel, Rüdiger Pakmor, Annalisa Pillepich, Rainer Weinberger, Dylan Nelson, Lars Hernquist, Mark Vogelsberger, Shy Genel, Paul Torrey, Federico Marinacci, Jill Naiman

The two-point correlation function of the simulated galaxies agrees well with SDSS at its mean redshift z ~ 0. 1, both as a function of stellar mass and when split according to galaxy colour, apart from a mild excess in the clustering of red galaxies in the stellar mass range 10^9-10^10 Msun/h^2.

First results from the IllustrisTNG simulations: the galaxy color bimodality

no code implementations11 Jul 2017 Dylan Nelson, Annalisa Pillepich, Volker Springel, Rainer Weinberger, Lars Hernquist, Ruediger Pakmor, Shy Genel, Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger, Guinevere Kauffmann, Federico Marinacci, Jill Naiman

We find a striking improvement with respect to the original Illustris simulation, as well as excellent quantitative agreement in comparison to the observations, with a sharp transition in median color from blue to red at a characteristic M* ~ 10^10. 5 Msun.

Simulating Galaxy Formation with the IllustrisTNG Model

no code implementations8 Mar 2017 Annalisa Pillepich, Volker Springel, Dylan Nelson, Shy Genel, Jill Naiman, Ruediger Pakmor, Lars Hernquist, Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger, Rainer Weinberger, Federico Marinacci

The overall framework builds upon the successes of the Illustris galaxy formation model, and includes prescriptions for star formation, stellar evolution, chemical enrichment, primordial and metal-line cooling of the gas, stellar feedback with galactic outflows, and black hole formation, growth and multi-mode feedback.
