Journal Article
Rost, A., Kuchner, U., Welker, C., Pearce, F., Stasyszyn, F., Gray, M., …Rasia, E. (2021). The threehundred: the structure and properties of cosmic filaments in the outskirts of galaxy clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 502(1), 714-727. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa3792

Galaxy cluster outskirts are described by complex velocity fields induced by diffuse material collapsing towards filaments, gas, and galaxies falling into clusters, and gas shock processes triggered by substructures. A simple scenario that describes... Read More about The threehundred: the structure and properties of cosmic filaments in the outskirts of galaxy clusters.

The Three Hundred project: shapes and radial alignment of satellite, infalling, and backsplash galaxies (2020)
Journal Article
Knebe, A., Gámez-Marín, M., Pearce, F. R., Cui, W., Hoffmann, K., De Petris, M., …Mostoghiu, R. (2020). The Three Hundred project: shapes and radial alignment of satellite, infalling, and backsplash galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 495(3), 3002-3013. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa1407

Using 324 numerically modelled galaxy clusters, we investigate the radial and galaxy–halo alignment of dark matter subhaloes and satellite galaxies orbiting within and around them. We find that radial alignment depends on distance to the centre of th... Read More about The Three Hundred project: shapes and radial alignment of satellite, infalling, and backsplash galaxies.

The Three Hundred project: the stellar and gas profiles (2020)
Journal Article
Li, Q., Cui, W., Yang, X., Rasia, E., Dave, R., De Petris, M., …Yepes, G. (2020). The Three Hundred project: the stellar and gas profiles. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 495(3), 2930-2948. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa1385

Using the catalogues of galaxy clusters from The Three Hundred project, modelled with both hydrodynamic simulations (GADGET-X and GADGET-MUSIC), and semi-analytical models (SAMs), we study the scatter and self-similarity of the profiles and distribut...

Mapping and characterization of cosmic filaments in galaxy cluster outskirts: strategies and forecasts for observations from simulations (2020)
Journal Article
Kuchner, U., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Pearce, F. R., Gray, M. E., Rost, A., Mu, C., …Yepes, G. (2020). Mapping and characterization of cosmic filaments in galaxy cluster outskirts: strategies and forecasts for observations from simulations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 494(4), 5473-5491. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa1083

Upcoming wide-field surveys are well-suited to studying the growth of galaxy clusters by tracing galaxy and gas accretion along cosmic filaments. We use hydrodynamic simulations of volumes surrounding 324 clusters from The ThreeHundred project to dev...

The Three Hundred Project: Backsplash galaxies in simulations of clusters (2020)
Journal Article
Haggar, R., Gray, M. E., Pearce, F. R., Knebe, A., Cui, W., Mostoghiu, R., & Yepes, G. (2020). The Three Hundred Project: Backsplash galaxies in simulations of clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 492(4), 6074–6085. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa273

In the outer regions of a galaxy cluster, galaxies may be either falling into the cluster for the first time, or have already passed through the cluster centre at some point in their past. To investigate these two distinct populations, we utilise The... Read More about The Three Hundred Project: Backsplash galaxies in simulations of clusters.
