We use EAGLE to quantify the effect galaxy mergers have on the stellar specific angular momentum of galaxies, jstars. We split mergers into dry (gas-poor)/wet (gas-rich), major/minor and different spin alignments and orbital parameters. Wet (dry) mer...

Small-scale galaxy clustering in the eagle simulation (2017)
Journal Article
Artale, M. C., Pedrosa, S. E., Trayford, J. W., Theuns, T., Farrow, D. J., Norberg, P., …Schaller, M. (2017). Small-scale galaxy clustering in the eagle simulation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 470(2), 1771-1787. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stx1263

We study present-day galaxy clustering in the EAGLE cosmological hydrodynamical simulation. EAGLE’s galaxy formation parameters were calibrated to reproduce the redshift z = 0.1 galaxy stellar mass function, and the simulation also reproduces galaxy...
