Disc-like objects in hierarchical hydrodynamical simulations: Comparison with observations
We present results from a careful and detailed analysis of the structural and dynamical properties of a sample of 29 disc-like objects identified at z = 0 in three AP3M-SPH fully consistent cosmological simulations. These simulations are realizations of a CDM hierarchical model, in which an ineffici...
