The galaxy size to halo spin relation of disc galaxies in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations (2022)
Journal Article
Yang, H., Gao, L., Frenk, C. S., Grand, R. J., Guo, Q., Liao, S., & Shao, S. (2023). The galaxy size to halo spin relation of disc galaxies in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(4), 5253-5259. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3335

In the standard disc galaxy formation model, the sizes of galactic discs are tightly related to the spin parameters λ of their dark matter haloes. The model has been wildly adopted by various semi-analytical galaxy formation models which have been ex...

The spatial distribution of satellites in galaxy clusters (2022)
Journal Article
Gu, Q., Guo, Q., Zhang, T., Cautun, M., Lacey, C., Frenk, C. S., & Shao, S. (2022). The spatial distribution of satellites in galaxy clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 514(1), 390-402. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac1292

The planar distributions of satellite galaxies around the Milky Way and Andromeda have been extensively studied as potential challenges to the standard cosmological model. Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Millennium simulation, we extend su... Read More about The spatial distribution of satellites in galaxy clusters.
