IllustrisTNG 50 - Formation of elliptical galaxy in Virgo-like Cluster

http://www.tng-project.org/media/ The assembly of a single massive elliptical galaxy in TNG50, tracked through time from z=20 until late time. By redshift zero this system will merge into the BCG of a Virgo-mass galaxy cluster (1014 solar masses). The progenitor of this galaxy undergoes rapid star formation in a turbulent, extended disk until intermediate times, when it starts to quench due to the action of its central blackhole. Vigorous major and minor merger activity transforms it from a disk into an elliptical system; an extremely complex interplay of multi-phase gas processes in its circumgalactic medium is visible throughout. The inset in the lower left shows the large-scale environment, while insets in the lower right zoom into the central galaxy itself (gas and stars). We pause at z=1.5 and rotate around the inner halo, showing in order: gas metallicity, velocity field, radial velocity, and H-alpha light. We pause again at the end of the movie and show H-alpha light followed by magnetic field strength. --- z = redshift SFR = Star formation rate M★ = Stellar mass
