Galaxy 2 Video Gallery
Below are videos showing the evolution of a galaxy in the L012m5 simulation from redshift z = 5.5 to z = 0. It has present-day stellar mass 1010.5 M⊙, a star formation rate of 1.5 M⊙/yr, and a black hole of mass 107.8 M⊙. Different videos show different properties (stellar light with dust attenuation, various gas properties, dark matter density).
