Unraveling Galaxy Evolution in Cosmic Voids: Insights from IllustrisTNG-300

Download Presentation

In this talk, we present a study of galaxy properties and evolution within cosmic voids using the IllustrisTNG-300 simulation. By comparing void and non-void galaxies, our findings reveal distinct characteristics at z = 0: void galaxies exhibit a higher star formation rate, a smaller stellar-to-halo-mass ratio, higher gas metallicity, and lower stellar metallicity. Furthermore, we observe delayed mergers and an accumulation of accreted mass in voids. These results provide valuable insights into the processes of galaxy assembly in these unique environments, furthering our understanding of the relationship between galaxy evolution and the large scale of the universe.
