Introducing the Illustris project: the evolution of galaxy populations across cosmic time

We present an overview of galaxy evolution across cosmic time in the Illustris simulation. Illustris is an N-body/hydrodynamical simulation that evolves 2 × 1820[superscript 3] resolution elements in a (106.5 Mpc)[superscript 3] box from cosmological initial conditions down to z = 0 using the arepo...
