The Milky Way is surrounded by 11 ‘classical’ satellite galaxies in a remarkable configuration: a thin plane that is possibly rotationally supported. Such a structure is thought to be highly unlikely to arise in the standard (ΛCDM) cosmological model... Read More about The Milky Way’s plane of satellites is consistent with ΛCDM.

Higher order initial conditions with massive neutrinos (2022)
Journal Article
Elbers, W., Frenk, C. S., Jenkins, A., Li, B., & Pascoli, S. (2022). Higher order initial conditions with massive neutrinos. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 516(3), https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2365

The discovery that neutrinos have mass has important consequences for cosmology. The main effect of massive neutrinos is to suppress the growth of cosmic structure on small scales. Such growth can be accurately modelled using cosmological N-body simu... Read More about Higher order initial conditions with massive neutrinos.

SIBELIUS-DARK: a galaxy catalogue of the local volume from a constrained realization simulation (2022)
Journal Article

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 512(4), 5823-5847. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac295

We present SIBELIUS-DARK, a constrained realization simulation of the local volume to a distance of 200 Mpc from the Milky Way. SIBELIUS-DARK is the first study of the ‘Simulations Beyond The Local Universe’ (SIBELIUS) project, which has the goal of...
