Satellite systems around galaxies in hydrodynamic simulations
Satellite systems around galaxies in hydrodynamic simulations
We investigate the properties of satellite galaxies formed in N-body/SPH simulations of galaxy formation in the $Λ$CDM cosmology. The simulations include the main physical effects thought to be important in galaxy formation and, in several cases, produce realistic spiral discs. In total, a sample of 9 galaxies of luminosity comparable …
