Stellar Halos: modelling formation in the L-Galaxies 2020 semi-analytic model

A study was carried out to determine how well the L-Galaxies 2020 semi-analytic model simulates the stellar halos of galaxies and the intracluster stellar (ICS) components of galaxy clusters. Two galaxy disruption models were tested, namely instantaneous disruption and gradual disruption. Furthermor...
