Galaxy morphology and star formation in the Illustris Simulation at

We study how optical galaxy morphology depends on mass and star formation rate (SFR) in the Illustris Simulation. To do so, we measure automated galaxy structures in 10 808 simulated galaxies at z = 0 with stellar masses 10[superscript 9.7] < M*/Mȯ < 10[superscript12.3]. We add observational...
