The Role of Mass and Environment on Satellite Distributions around Milky Way Analogs in the Romulus25 Simulation

We study satellite counts and quenched fractions for satellites of Milky Way analogs in Romulus25 , a large-volume cosmological hydrodynamic simulation. Depending on the definition of a Milky Way analog, we have between 66 and 97 Milky Way analogs in Romulus25 , a 25 Mpc per-side uniform volume simu...
