Primordial non-Gaussianities with weak lensing: Information on non-linear scales in the Ulagam full-sky simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Chihway Chang | First 5 Authors: Dhayaa Anbajagane, Chihway Chang, Hayden Lee, Marco Gatti, | Summary: Primordial non-Gaussianities (PNGs) are signatures in the density field that encode particle physics processes from the inflationary epoch. Such signatures have been extensively studied using the Cosmic Microwave Background, through constraining the amplitudes, $f^{X}_{rm NL}$, with future […]

In-situ vs accreted Milky Way globular clusters: a new classification method and implications for cluster formation

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We present a new scheme for the classification of the in-situ and accreted globular clusters (GCs). The scheme uses total energy $E$ and $z$-component of the orbital angular momentum and is calibrated using [Al/Fe] abundance ratio. We demonstrate that […]

Taking the Milky Way for a spin: disc formation in the ARTEMIS simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Adam M. Dillamore, Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, Andreea S. Font, | Summary: We investigate the formation (spin-up) of galactic discs in the ARTEMIS simulations of Milky Way-mass galaxies. In almost all galaxies discs spin up at higher [Fe/H] than the Milky Way (MW). Those that contain an […]
