The Milky Way's total satellite population and constraining the mass of the warm dark matter particle

no code implementations25 Sep 2018 Oliver Newton, Marius Cautun, Adrian Jenkins, Carlos S. Frenk, John C. Helly

The Milky Way's (MW) satellite population is a powerful probe of warm dark matter (WDM) models as the abundance of small substructures is very sensitive to the properties of the WDM particle.

The total satellite population of the Milky Way

no code implementations14 Aug 2017 Oliver Newton, Marius Cautun, Adrian Jenkins, Carlos S. Frenk, John Helly

We predict that half of our estimated total satellite population of the MW should be detected by the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope.

The EAGLE simulations of galaxy formation: public release of halo and galaxy catalogues

Crain, Joop Schaye, Tom Theuns, Claudio Dalla Vecchia, Carlos S. Frenk, Ian G. McCarthy, Adrian Jenkins, Yetli Rosas-Guevara, Simon D. M. White, Maarten Baes, Peter Camps, Gerard Lemson

The free parameters of the subgrid models for feedback are calibrated to the redshift z=0 galaxy stellar mass function, galaxy sizes and black hole mass - stellar mass relation.

The EAGLE simulations of galaxy formation: calibration of subgrid physics and model variations

no code implementations6 Jan 2015 Robert A. Crain, Joop Schaye, Richard G. Bower, Michelle Furlong, Matthieu Schaller, Tom Theuns, Claudio Dalla Vecchia, Carlos S. Frenk, Ian G. McCarthy, John C. Helly, Adrian Jenkins, Yetli M. Rosas-Guevara, Simon D. M. White, James W. Trayford

We find that the properties of galaxies with stellar mass <~ M* (the "knee" of the galaxy stellar mass function) are largely governed by feedback associated with star formation, while those of more massive galaxies are also controlled by feedback from accretion onto their central black holes.

The EAGLE project: Simulating the evolution and assembly of galaxies and their environments

1 code implementation25 Jul 2014 Joop Schaye, Robert A. Crain, Richard G. Bower, Michelle Furlong, Matthieu Schaller, Tom Theuns, Claudio Dalla Vecchia, Carlos S. Frenk, I. G. McCarthy, John C. Helly, Adrian Jenkins, Y. M. Rosas-Guevara, Simon D. M. White, Maarten Baes, C. M. Booth, Peter Camps, Julio F. Navarro, Yan Qu, Alireza Rahmati, Till Sawala, Peter A. Thomas, James Trayford

Because the feedback efficiencies cannot be predicted from first principles, we calibrate them to the z~0 galaxy stellar mass function and the amplitude of the galaxy-central black hole mass relation, also taking galaxy sizes into account.
