The Three Hundred Project: Connection between star formation quenching and dynamical evolution in and around simulated galaxy clusters (2022)
Journal Article
Hough, T., Cora, S. A., Haggar, R., Vega-Martinez, C., Kuchner, U., Pearce, F., …Yepes, G. (2023). The Three Hundred Project: Connection between star formation quenching and dynamical evolution in and around simulated galaxy clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(2), 2398-2417. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3209

In this work, we combine the semi-analytic model of galaxy formation and evolution SAG with the 102 relaxed simulated galaxy clusters from THE THREE HUNDRED project, and we study the link between the quenching of star formation (SF) and the physical...

The Three Hundred project: Galaxy groups do not survive cluster infall (2022)
Journal Article
Haggar, R., Kuchner, U., Gray, M. E., Pearce, F. R., Knebe, A., Yepes, G., & Cui, W. (2023). The Three Hundred project: Galaxy groups do not survive cluster infall. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(1), 1316-1334. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2809

Galaxy clusters grow by accreting galaxies as individual objects, or as members of a galaxy group. These groups can strongly impact galaxy evolution, stripping the gas from galaxies, and enhancing the rate of galaxy mergers. However, it is not clear...

Forecasting the success of the WEAVE Wide-Field Cluster Survey on the extraction of the cosmic web filaments around galaxy clusters (2022)
Journal Article
Cornwell, D. J., Kuchner, U., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Gray, M. E., Pearce, F. R., Aguerri, J. A. L., …Trager, S. C. (2022). Forecasting the success of the WEAVE Wide-Field Cluster Survey on the extraction of the cosmic web filaments around galaxy clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 517(2), 1678–1694. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2777

Next-generation wide-field spectroscopic surveys will observe the infall regions around large numbers of galaxy clusters with high sampling rates for the first time. Here we assess the feasibility of extracting the large-scale cosmic web around clust...

Galaxy pairs in THE THREE HUNDRED simulations: a study on the performance of observational pair-finding techniques (2022)
Journal Article
Contreras-Santos, A., Knebe, A., Cui, W., Haggar, R., Pearce, F., Gray, M., …Yepes, G. (2022). Galaxy pairs in THE THREE HUNDRED simulations: a study on the performance of observational pair-finding techniques. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 515(4), 5375-5388. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2127

Close pairs of galaxies have been broadly studied in the literature as a way to understand galaxy interactions and mergers. In observations, they are usually defined by setting a maximum separation in the sky and in velocity along the line of sight,...

The Three Hundred project: The gizmo-simba run (2022)
Journal Article
Cui, W., Dave, R., Knebe, A., Rasia, E., Gray, M., Pearce, F., …Gianfagna, G. (2022). The Three Hundred project: The gizmo-simba run. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 514(1), 977-996. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac1402

We introduce gizmo-simba, a new suite of galaxy cluster simulations within The Three Hundred project. The Three Hundred consists of zoom re-simulations of 324 clusters with M 200≳ 1014.8, M ⊙ drawn from the MultiDark-Planck N-body simulation, run usi...

Cosmic filaments delay quenching inside clusters (2022)
Journal Article
Kotecha, S., Welker, C., Zhou, Z., Wadsley, J., Kraljic, K., Sorce, J., …Cui, W. (2022). Cosmic filaments delay quenching inside clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 512(1), 926-944. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac300

We investigate how large-scale cosmic filaments impact the quenching of galaxies within one virial radius of 324 simulated clusters from The Three Hundred project. We track cosmic filaments with the versatile, observation-friendly program DisPerSE an... Read More about Cosmic filaments delay quenching inside clusters.

The three hundred project: Galaxy cluster mergers and their impact on the stellar component of brightest cluster galaxies (2022)
Journal Article
Contreras-Santos, A., Knebe, A., Pearce, F., Haggar, R., Gray, M., Cui, W., …Hoeft, M. (2022). The three hundred project: Galaxy cluster mergers and their impact on the stellar component of brightest cluster galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 511(2), 2897-2913. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac275

Using the data set of the three hundred project, i.e. a suite of 324 hydrodynamical resimulations of cluster-sized haloes, we study galaxy cluster mergers and their effect on colour and luminosity changes of their brightest cluster galaxies (BCG). We... Read More about The three hundred project: Galaxy cluster mergers and their impact on the stellar component of brightest cluster galaxies.
