Cosmological simulations of galaxy clusters with feedback from active galactic nuclei: profiles and scaling relations (2014)
Journal Article
Pike, S. R., Kay, S. T., Newton, R. D., Thomas, P. A., & Jenkins, A. (2014). Cosmological simulations of galaxy clusters with feedback from active galactic nuclei: profiles and scaling relations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 445(2), 1774-1796. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stu1788

We present results from a new set of 30 cosmological simulations of galaxy clusters, including the effects of radiative cooling, star formation, supernova feedback, black hole growth and AGN feedback. We first demonstrate that our AGN model is capabl... Read More about Cosmological simulations of galaxy clusters with feedback from active galactic nuclei: profiles and scaling relations.

Journal Article
Schaye, J., Crain, R. A., Bower, R. G., Furlong, M., Schaller, M., Theuns, T., …Trayford, J. (2015). The EAGLE project: simulating the evolution and assembly of galaxies and their environments. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 446(1), 521-554. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stu2058

We introduce the Virgo Consortium's Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments (EAGLE) project, a suite of hydrodynamical simulations that follow the formation of galaxies and supermassive black holes in cosmologically representative v...

Dwarf galaxies in CDM and SIDM with baryons: observational probes of the nature of dark matter (2014)
Journal Article
Vogelsberger, M., Zavala, J., Simpson, C., & Jenkins, A. (2014). Dwarf galaxies in CDM and SIDM with baryons: observational probes of the nature of dark matter. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 444(4), 3684-3698. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stu1713

We present the first cosmological simulations of dwarf galaxies, which include dark matter self-interactions and baryons. We study two dwarf galaxies within cold dark matter, and four different elastic self-interacting scenarios with constant and vel...

The properties of warm dark matter haloes (2014)
Journal Article
Lovell, M. R., Frenk, C. S., Eke, V. R., Jenkins, A., Gao, L., & Theuns, T. (2014). The properties of warm dark matter haloes. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 439(1), 300-317. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt2431

Well-motivated elementary particle candidates for the dark matter, such as the sterile neutrino, behave as warm dark matter (WDM). For particle masses of the order of a keV, free streaming produces a cutoff in the linear fluctuation power spectrum at... Read More about The properties of warm dark matter haloes.
