This paper describes a new publicly available codebase for modeling galaxy formation in a cosmological context, the "Semi-Analytic Galaxy Evolution" model, or SAGE for short.5 SAGE is a significant update to the 2006 model of Croton et al. and has been rebuilt to be modular and customizable. The model will run on any N-body simulation whose trees are organized in a supported format and contain a minimum set of basic halo properties. In this work, we present the baryonic prescriptions implemented in SAGE to describe the formation and evolution of galaxies, and their calibration for three N-body simulations: Millennium, Bolshoi, and GiggleZ. Updated physics include the following: gas accretion, ejection due to feedback, and reincorporation via the galactic fountain; a new gas cooling-radio mode active galactic nucleus (AGN) heating cycle; AGN feedback in the quasar mode; a new treatment of gas in satellite galaxies; and galaxy mergers, disruption, and the build-up of intra-cluster stars. Throughout, we show the results of a common default parameterization on each simulation, with a focus on the local galaxy population.

We introduce the The Three Hundred project, an endeavour to model 324 large galaxy clusters with full-physics hydrodynamical re-simulations. Here we present the dataset and study the differences to observations for fundamental galaxy cluster properties and scaling relations. We find that the modelled galaxy clusters are generally in reasonable agreement with observations with respect to baryonic fractions and gas scaling relations at redshift z = 0. However, there are still some (model-dependent) differences, such as central galaxies being too massive, and galaxy colours (g −r) being bluer (about 0.2 dex lower at the peak position) than in observations. The agreement in gas scaling relations down to 10 13 h −1 M between the simulations indicates that particulars of the sub-grid modelling of the baryonic physics only has a weak influence on these relations. We also include -where appropriate -a comparison to three semianalytical galaxy formation models as applied to the same underlying dark matter only simulation. All simulations and derived data products are publicly available.observed properties of the Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM), the size of the central brightest cluster galaxy and the number and properties of the satellite galaxies orbiting within a common dark matter envelope. Clusters of galaxies can therefore be considered to be large cosmological laboratories that are useful for pinning down both cosmological parameters and empirical models of astrophysical processes acting across a range of coupled scales.Concerted effort, from both observational and theoretical perspectives, has been devoted to improve our understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxy clusters. On the observational side, multi-wavelength telescopes are

We present the new semi-analytic model of galaxy evolution, Dark Sage, a heavily modified version of the publicly available sage code. The model is designed for detailed evolution of galactic discs. We evolve discs in a series of annuli with fixed specific angular momentum, which allows us to make predictions for the radial and angularmomentum structure of galaxies. Most physical processes, including all channels of star formation and associated feedback, are performed in these annuli. We present the surface density profiles of our model spiral galaxies, both as a function of radius and specific angular momentum, and find the discs naturally build a pseduobulge-like component. Our main results are focussed on predictions relating to the integrated mass-specific angular momentum relation of stellar discs. The model produces a distinct sequence between these properties in remarkable agreement with recent observational literature. We investigate the impact Toomre disc instabilities have on shaping this sequence and find they are crucial for regulating both the mass and spin of discs. Without instabilities, high-mass discs would be systematically deficient in specific angular momentum by a factor of ∼2.5, with increased scatter. Instabilities also appear to drive the direction in which the mass-spin sequence of spiral galaxy discs evolves. With them, we find galaxies of fixed mass have higher specific angular momentum at later epochs.

We present the public release of the MULTIDARK-GALAXIES: three distinct galaxy catalogues derived from one of the Planck cosmology MULTIDARK simulations (i.e. MDPL2, with a volume of (1 h −1 Gpc) 3 and mass resolution of 1.5 × 10 9 h −1 M ) by applying the semi-analytic models GALACTICUS, SAG, and SAGE to it. We compare the three models and their conformity with observational data for a selection of fundamental properties of galaxies like stellar mass function, star formation rate, cold gas fractions, and metallicities -noting that they sometimes perform differently reflecting model designs and calibrations. We have further selected galaxy subsamples of the catalogues by number densities in stellar mass, cold gas mass, and star formation rate in order to study the clustering statistics of galaxies. We show that despite different treatment of orphan galaxies, i.e. galaxies that lost their dark-matter host halo due to the finite mass resolution of the N -body simulation or tidal stripping, the clustering signal is comparable, and reproduces the observations in all three models -in particular when selecting samples based upon stellar mass. Our catalogues provide a powerful tool to study galaxy formation within a volume comparable to those probed by on-going and future photometric and redshift surveys. All model data consisting of a range of galaxy propertiesincluding broad-band SDSS magnitudes -are publicly available.

The Widefield ASKAP L-band Legacy All-sky Blind surveY (WALLABY) is a next-generation survey of neutral hydrogen (H I) in the Local Universe. It uses the widefield, high-resolution capability of the Australian Square Kilometer Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), a radio interferometer consisting of 36 × 12-m dishes equipped with Phased-Array Feeds (PAFs), located in an extremely radioquiet zone in Western Australia. WALLABY aims to survey three-quarters of the sky (−90 • < δ < +30 • ) to a redshift of z 0.26, and generate spectral line image cubes at ∼30 arcsec resolution and ∼1.6 mJy beam −1 per 4 km s −1 channel sensitivity. ASKAP's instantaneous field of view at 1.4 GHz, delivered by the PAF's 36 beams, is about 30 sq deg. At an integrated signal-to-noise ratio of five, WALLABY is expected to detect around half a million galaxies with a mean redshift of z ∼ 0.05 (∼200 Mpc). The scientific goals of WALLABY include: (a) a census of gas-rich galaxies in the vicinity of the Local Group; (b) a study of the H I properties of galaxies, groups and clusters, in particular the influence of the environment on galaxy evolution; and (c) the refinement of cosmological parameters using the spatial and redshift distribution of low-bias gas-rich galaxies. For context we provide an overview of recent and planned large-scale H I surveys. Combined with existing and new multi-wavelength sky surveys, WALLABY will enable an exciting new generation of panchromatic studies of the Local Universe. -First results from the WALLABY pilot survey are revealed, with initial data products publicly available in the CSIRO ASKAP Science Data Archive (CASDA).

We investigate the influence of environment on the cold-gas properties of galaxies at z = 0 within the TNG100 cosmological, magnetohydrodynamic simulation, part of the IllustrisTNG suite. We extend previous post-processing methods for breaking gas cells into their atomic and molecular phases, and build detailed mocks to comprehensively compare to the latest surveys of atomic hydrogen (H i) in nearby galaxies, namely ALFALFA and xGASS. We use TNG100 to explore the H i content, star formation activity, and angular momentum of satellite galaxies, each as a function of environment, and find that satellites are typically a factor of 3 poorer in H i than centrals of the same stellar mass, with the exact offset depending sensitively on parent halo mass. Due to the large physical scales on which H i measurements are made (∼45-245 kpc), contributions from gas not bound to the galaxy of interest but in the same line of sight crucially lead to larger H i mass measurements in the mocks in many cases, ultimately aligning with observations. This effect is mass-dependent and naturally greater for satellites than centrals, as satellites are never isolated by definition. We also show that H i stripping in TNG100 satellites is closely accompanied by quenching, in tension with observational data that instead favour that H i is preferentially stripped before star formation is reduced.
