The alignment of satellite galaxies and cosmic filaments: observations and simulations

The accretion of satellites on to central galaxies along vast cosmic filaments is an apparent outcome of the anisotropic collapse of structure in our Universe. Numerical work (based on gravitational dynamics of N-body simulations) indicates that satellites are beamed towards hosts along preferred di...
