Try this interactive page that allows you to identify galaxies with stellar shells in the Illustris simulation.

• Give it a try!

What are the metallicity signatures of stellar shells?

Find out what type of mergers are responsible for shell galaxies.

Placing constraints on axion dark matter using data from dwarf spheroidal galaxies.

How do particles get accelerated in collisionless astrophysical plasma shocks?

How do shells form? Through beautiful galaxy mergers! keep on reading for more details & pics! Shell galaxies are relatively common, ~18% of massive galaxies (>6 x 10^12 solar masses) have shells. We used the Illustris cosmological simulation to study them pic.twitter.com/tkJ9PtgDuu
