RA Crain, F van de Voort - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2023 - annualreviews.org
We review the progress in modeling the galaxy population in hydrodynamical simulations of
the ΛCDM cosmogony. State-of-the-art simulations now broadly reproduce the observed …

On the quenching of star formation in observed and simulated central galaxies: evidence for the role of integrated AGN feedback
In this paper, we investigate how massive central galaxies cease their star formation by
comparing theoretical predictions from cosmological simulations: EAGLE, Illustris, and …

The stellar mass assembly of galaxies in the Illustris simulation: growth by mergers and the spatial distribution of accreted stars
V Rodriguez-Gomez, A Pillepich… - Monthly Notices of …, 2016 - academic.oup.com
We use the Illustris simulation to study the relative contributions of in situ star formation and
stellar accretion to the build-up of galaxies over an unprecedentedly wide range of masses …

What causes the formation of discs and end of bursty star formation?
As they grow, galaxies can transition from irregular/spheroidal with 'bursty'star formation
histories (SFHs), to discy with smooth SFHs. But even in simulations, the direct physical …

The size evolution of star-forming and quenched galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulation
We analyse scaling relations and evolution histories of galaxy sizes in TNG100, part of the
IllustrisTNG simulation suite. Observational qualitative trends of size with stellar mass, star …
