IllustrisTNG in the HSC-SSP: image data release and the major role of mini mergers as drivers of asymmetry and star formation

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Connor Bottrell, Hassen M. Yesuf, Gergö Popping, Kiyoaki Christopher Omori, Shenli Tang | Summary: At fixed galaxy stellar mass, there is a clear observational connection between structural asymmetry and offset from the star forming main sequence, $Delta$SFMS. Herein, we use the TNG50 simulation to investigate the […]

Extending the Chemical Reach of the H3 Survey: Detailed Abundances of the Dwarf-galaxy Stellar Stream Wukong/LMS-1

Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Guilherme Limberg, Alexander P. Ji, Rohan P. Naidu, Anirudh Chiti, Silvia Rossi | Summary: We present the first detailed chemical-abundance analysis of stars from the dwarf-galaxy stellar stream Wukong/LMS-1 covering a wide metallicity range ($-3.5 < rm[Fe/H] lesssim -1.3$). We find abundance patterns that are effectively […]
