Schematics of Astronomy

I created this page to collect some schematics of astronomy. I will add more in the future.

Size-mass relation of galaxies
Figure 28 from van Dokkum et al. (2015)

Illustration of possible average tracks of galaxies in the size–mass plane from z ∼ 3 to z ∼ 0.

Table of EAGLE, TNG, and SIMBA
Table 1 from Wright et al. (2024)

Description of the simulations used for this study:EAGLE,TNG, and SIMBA.

Feedback of EAGLE, TNG, and SIMBA
Figure 8 from Wright et al. (2024)

Schematic diagram summarising the different gas flow paradigms found in EAGLE, TNG and SIMBA, split into low mass haloes where stellar feedback dominates (left), and higher mass haloes where AGN feedback dominates (right)

Quenching mechanisms of galaxies

Causes and mechanisms of galaxy quenching
Figure 1 from Curtis-Lake et al. (2023)

Causes and mechanisms of galaxy quenching

Gas removal and strangulation
Figure 1 from Peng et al. (2015)

Illustration of two different quenching scenarios and their effect on stellar metallicities

Reflection Comptonization

Figure 1 from Li et al. (2024)
