Journal Article
Park, C., Lee, J., Kim, J., Jeong, D., Pichon, C., Gibson, B. K., Snaith, O. N., Shin, J., Kim, Y., Dubois, Y., & Few, C. G. (2022). Formation and Morphology of the First Galaxies in the Cosmic Morning. The Astrophysical journal, 937(1), https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac85b5

We investigate the formation and morphological evolution of the first galaxies in the cosmic morning (10 ≳ z ≳ 4) using the Horizon Run 5 (HR5) simulation. For galaxies above the stellar mass M ⋆ , min = 2 × 10 9 M ⊙ , we classify them into disk, sph... Read More about Formation and Morphology of the First Galaxies in the Cosmic Morning.

The horizon run 5 cosmological hydrodynamical simulation: probing galaxy formation from kilo- to gigaparsec scales. The Astrophysical journal, 908(1), Article 11. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/abd08b

Horizon Run 5 (HR5) is a cosmological hydrodynamical simulation that captures the properties of the universe on a Gpc scale while achieving a resolution of 1 kpc. Inside the simulation box, we zoom in on a high-resolution cuboid region with a volume...

The role of stellar radial motions in shaping galaxy surface brightness profiles (2017)
Journal Article
Ruiz-Lara, T., Few, C. G., Florido, E., Gibson, B. K., Pérez, I., & Sánchez-Blázquez, P. (2017). The role of stellar radial motions in shaping galaxy surface brightness profiles. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 608, A126. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201731485

Aims. The physics driving features such as breaks observed in galaxy surface brightness (SB) profiles remains contentious. Here, we assess the importance of stellar radial motions in shaping their characteristics. Methods. We use the simulated Milky...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: matching chemodynamical simulations to observations of the Milky Way. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 473(1), 185-197. https://doi.org/10.1093/MNRAS/STX2316

The typical methodology for comparing simulated galaxies with observational surveys is usually to apply a spatial selection to the simulation to mimic the region of interest covered by a comparable observational survey sample. In this work, we compar... Read More about The Gaia-ESO Survey: matching chemodynamical simulations to observations of the Milky Way.

Origin of the metallicity distribution in the thick disc (2016)
Journal Article
Miranda, M. S., Pilkington, K., Gibson, B. K., Brook, C. B., Sánchez-Blázquez, P., Minchev, I., Few, C. G., Smith, R., Domínguez-Tenreiro, R., Obreja, A., Bailin, J., & Stinson, G. S. (2016). Origin of the metallicity distribution in the thick disc. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 587, Article A10. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201525789

Using a suite of cosmological chemodynamical disc galaxy simulations, we assess how (a) radial metallicity gradients evolve with scaleheight; (b) the vertical metallicity gradients change through the thick disc; and (c) the vertical gradient of the s...
