Formation process of the galaxy inner structure in simulated galaxies

The innermost structure of galaxies is becoming increasingly accessible thanks to the advent of more powerful observing facilities. This gaze of the central region will allow us to answer some of the many questions still pending about its formation process.

In this work we use numerical simulations to perform a kinematic and dynamic analysis of their stellar populations. We study the different morphological components, their properties and their evolution throughout the cosmic time. We focus on the evolution of the angular momentum content and the in-situ/ex-situ origin of the stars that populate each inner morphological component at z=0.
