The Auriga Project: the properties and formation mechanisms of disc galaxies across cosmic time
The Auriga Project: the properties and formation mechanisms of disc galaxies across cosmic time
We introduce a suite of 30 cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical zoom simulations of the formation of galaxies in isolated Milky Way mass dark haloes. These were carried out with the moving mesh code arepo, together with a comprehensive model for galaxy formation physics, including active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback and magnetic fields, …
