DORCHA simulations

Dark-matter-only Milky Way suite

The DORCHA suite comprises of 25 dark-matter-only (DMO) haloes of Milky Way analogues. They are chosen based on their masses \((\sim10^{12}~h^{-1}\rm{M}_\odot)\) as well as a spatial isolation criteria.

The visualisations above projections through our simulations volume. DORCHA_00 is our \(100~h^{-1}\rm{Mpc}\) parent simulation from which we select 15 isolated haloes (locations in turquoise circles) and 5 set of paired haloes (pink circles).
