Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Razieh Emami, Lars Hernquist, Mark Vogelsberger, Xuejian Shen, Joshua S. Speagle | Summary: We analyze the velocity anisotropy of stars in real and energy space for a sample of Milky Way-like galaxies in the TNG50 simulation. We employ different selection criteria, including spatial, kinematic and metallicity cuts, […]
