Mutual information analysis of TNG50 simulations shows gravitational potential and total energy retain merger mass and infall time information longest, while radial velocity loses it within ~5 Gyr, with washout depending on radius, merger age, and mass.
The Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger occurred 11.2 ± 0.1 Gyr ago, coinciding with the formation of a group of globular clusters and potentially leaving ω Centauri as its remnant, while placing disk formation at z ≳ 4.
300S stellar stream exhibits three density peaks, smooth width variations, a possible 4.7 degree gap, and a kink modeled as resulting from Large Magellanic Cloud interaction across its full known footprint.
Simulations show that observed rotation in 13.5-Gyr-old alpha-rich stars constrains the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger to mass ratios below 1:4, with interaction and starburst times both near 11 Gyr.
TNG50 simulations of 98 Milky Way analogues find GSE-like debris in 32 cases, with two-merger GSEs in one third; single- and two-merger cases differ in median infall time (5.9 vs 10.7 Gyr ago), abundances, and star-formation histories.
High-precision abundances and Ba isotopic ratios in TYC 6044-714-1 favor an s+r nucleosynthesis scenario over i-process models, which require implausible conditions and mismatch isotopic data.
