An analysis of the evolving comoving number density of galaxies in hydrodynamical simulations

An analysis of the evolving comoving number density of galaxies in hydrodynamical simulations

We present an analysis of the evolving comoving cumulative number density of galaxy populations found in the Illustris simulation. Cumulative number density is commonly used to link galaxy populations across different epochs by assuming that galaxies preserve their number density in time. Our analys...
