The trajectories of galaxies in groups: mass-loss and preprocessing

Abstract

We present a study of environmental effects and preprocessing in a large galaxy group using a high-resolution, zoom-in simulation run with the gasoline2 hydrodynamics code. We categorize galaxies that were always in distinct haloes as unaccreted, galaxies that were distinct before accretion on to the main group as single, and galaxies that were in external sub-groups before accretion on to the main group as grouped. The unaccreted galaxy …
