The MillenniumTNG Project: Intrinsic alignments of galaxies and halos (2023)
Journal Article
Delgado, A. M., Hadzhiyska, B., Bose, S., Springel, V., Hernquist, L., Barrera, M., …Frenk, C. (2023). The MillenniumTNG Project: Intrinsic alignments of galaxies and halos. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 523(4), 5899–5914. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad1781

The intrinsic alignment (IA) of observed galaxy shapes with the underlying cosmic web is a source of contamination in weak lensing surveys. Sensitive methods to identify the IA signal will therefore need to be included in the upcoming weak lensing an...

The progenitor galaxies of stellar haloes as ‘failed’ Milky Ways (2023)
Journal Article
Bose, S., & Deason, A. J. (2023). The progenitor galaxies of stellar haloes as ‘failed’ Milky Ways. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 522(4), 5013-5021. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad1123

The stellar halo of the Milky Way records the history of its interactions with dwarf galaxies, whose subsequent destruction results in the formation of an extended stellar component. Recent works have suggested that galaxies with masses comparable to... Read More about The progenitor galaxies of stellar haloes as ‘failed’ Milky Ways.

Galaxy clustering from the bottom up: A Streaming Model emulator I (2023)
Journal Article
Cuesta-Lazaro, C., Nishimichi, T., Kobayashi, Y., Ruan, C.-Z., Eggemeier, A., Miyatake, H., Takada, M., Yoshida, N., Zarrouk, P., Baugh, C. M., Bose, S., & Li, B. (2023). Galaxy clustering from the bottom up: A Streaming Model emulator I. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 523(3), 3219–3238. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad1207

In this series of papers, we present a simulation-based model for the non-linear clustering of galaxies based on separate modelling of clustering in real space and velocity statistics. In the first paper, we present an emulator for the real-space cor... Read More about Galaxy clustering from the bottom up: A Streaming Model emulator I.

Cosmological structure formation and soliton phase transition in fuzzy dark matter with axion self-interactions (2023)
Journal Article
Mocz, P., Fialkov, A., Vogelsberger, M., Boylan-Kolchin, M., Chavanis, P., Amin, M. A., …Zavala, J. (2023). Cosmological structure formation and soliton phase transition in fuzzy dark matter with axion self-interactions. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 521(2), 2608-2615. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad694

We investigate cosmological structure formation in fuzzy dark matter (FDM) with the attractive self-interaction (SI) with numerical simulations. Such a SI would arise if the FDM boson were an ultra-light axion, which has a strong CP symmetry-breaking...

The feasibility of constraining DM interactions with high-redshift observations by JWST (2022)
Journal Article
Kurmus, A., Bose, S., Lovell, M., Cyr-Racine, F., Vogelsberger, M., Pfrommer, C., & Zavala, J. (2022). The feasibility of constraining DM interactions with high-redshift observations by JWST. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 516(1), 1524-1538. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2195

Observations of the high redshift universe provide a promising avenue for constraining the nature of the dark matter (DM). This will be even more true with the advent of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). We run cosmological simulations of galaxy...

Modelling the galaxy–halo connection with machine learning (2022)
Journal Article
Delgado, A. M., Wadekar, D., Hadzhiyska, B., Bose, S., Hernquist, L., & Ho, S. (2022). Modelling the galaxy–halo connection with machine learning. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 515(2), 2733-2746. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac1951

To extract information from the clustering of galaxies on non-linear scales, we need to model the connection between galaxies and haloes accurately and in a flexible manner. Standard halo occupation distribution (HOD) models make the assumption that... Read More about Modelling the galaxy–halo connection with machine learning.

Illustrating galaxy–halo connection in the DESI era with illustrisTNG (2022)
Journal Article
Yuan, S., Hadzhiyska, B., Bose, S., & Eisenstein, D. J. (2022). Illustrating galaxy–halo connection in the DESI era with illustrisTNG. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 512(4), 5793-5811. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac830

We employ the hydrodynamical simulation ILLUSTRISTNG to inform the galaxy–halo connection of the Luminous Red Galaxy (LRG) and Emission Line Galaxy (ELG) samples of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey at redshift z ∼ 0.8. Specifica... Read More about Illustrating galaxy–halo connection in the DESI era with illustrisTNG.

Constructing high-fidelity halo merger trees in abacussummit (2022)
Journal Article

Tracking the formation and evolution of dark matter haloes is a critical aspect of any analysis of cosmological N-body simulations. In particular, the mass assembly of a halo and its progenitors, encapsulated in the form of its merger tree, serves as...

Dynamics of intermediate-mass black holes wandering in the milky way galaxy using the illustris TNG50 simulation (2022)
Journal Article

The detection of Intermediate-Mass Black Holes (IMBHs) in dwarf galaxies is crucial to closing the gap in the wide mass distribution of black holes (⁠∼3M⊙ to ∼5×1010M⊙⁠). IMBHs originally located at the centre of dwarfs that later collide with the Mi...
