The building up of observed stellar scaling relations of massive galaxies and the connection to black hole growth in the TNG50 simulation

ABSTRACT We study how mock-observed stellar morphological and structural properties of massive galaxies are built up between $z$ = 0.5 and $z$ = 3 in the TNG50 cosmological simulation. We generate mock images with the properties of the CANDELS survey and derive Sersic parameters and optical rest-fra...
