Scaling relations for galaxy clusters in the Millennium-XXL simulation (2012)
Journal Article
Angulo, R., Springel, V., White, S., Jenkins, A., Baugh, C., & Frenk, C. (2012). Scaling relations for galaxy clusters in the Millennium-XXL simulation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 426(3), 2046-2062. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.21830.x

We present a very large high-resolution cosmological N-body simulation, the Millennium-XXL or MXXL, which uses 303 billion particles to represent the formation of dark matter structures throughout a 4.1 Gpc box in a Λ cold dark matter cosmology. We c... Read More about Scaling relations for galaxy clusters in the Millennium-XXL simulation.

The journey of QSO haloes from z ∼ 6 to the present (2012)
Journal Article
Angulo, R., Springel, V., White, S., Cole, S., Jenkins, A., Baugh, C., & Frenk, C. (2012). The journey of QSO haloes from z ∼ 6 to the present. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 425(4), 2722-2730. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.21783.x

We apply a recently developed scaling technique to the Millennium-XXL, one of the largest cosmological N-body simulations carried out to date (3 × 1011 particles within a cube of volume ∼70 Gpc3). This allows us to investigate the cosmological parame... Read More about The journey of QSO haloes from z ∼ 6 to the present.

The Phoenix Project: the dark side of rich Galaxy clusters (2012)
Journal Article
Gao, L., Navarro, J., Frenk, C., Jenkins, A., Springel, V., & White, S. (2012). The Phoenix Project: the dark side of rich Galaxy clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 425(3), 2169-2186. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.21564.x

We introduce the Phoenix Project, a set of Λ cold dark matter (CDM) simulations of the dark matter component of nine rich galaxy clusters. Each cluster is simulated at least at two different numerical resolutions. For eight of them, the highest resol... Read More about The Phoenix Project: the dark side of rich Galaxy clusters.

The Aquila comparison project : the effects of feedback and numerical methods on simulations of galaxy formation (2012)
Journal Article
Scannapieco, C., Wadepuhl, M., Parry, O., Navarro, J., Jenkins, A., Springel, V., …Woods, R. (2012). The Aquila comparison project : the effects of feedback and numerical methods on simulations of galaxy formation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 423(2), 1726-1749. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.20993.x

We compare the results of various cosmological gas-dynamical codes used to simulate the formation of a galaxy in the Λ cold dark matter structure formation paradigm. The various runs (13 in total) differ in their numerical hydrodynamical treatment [s...

The haloes of bright satellite galaxies in a warm dark matter universe (2012)
Journal Article
Lovell, M., Eke, V., Frenk, C., Gao, L., Jenkins, A., Theuns, T., …Ruchayskiy, O. (2012). The haloes of bright satellite galaxies in a warm dark matter universe. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 420(3), 2318-2324. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.20200.x

High-resolution N-body simulations of galactic cold dark matter haloes indicate that we should expect to find a few satellite galaxies around the Milky Way whose haloes have a maximum circular velocity in excess of 40 km s−1. Yet, with the exception... Read More about The haloes of bright satellite galaxies in a warm dark matter universe.

Where will supersymmetric dark matter first be seen? (2012)
Journal Article
Gao, L., Frenk, C., Jenkins, A., Springel, V., & White, S. (2012). Where will supersymmetric dark matter first be seen?. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 419(2), 1721-1726. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.19836.x

If the dark matter consists of supersymmetric particles, γ-ray observatories such as the Large Area Telescope aboard the Fermi satellite may detect annihilation radiation from the haloes of galaxies and galaxy clusters. Much recent effort has been de... Read More about Where will supersymmetric dark matter first be seen?.
