Warps and waves in the stellar discs of the Auriga cosmological simulations

Recent studies have revealed an oscillating asymmetry in the vertical structure of the Milky Way's disc. Here we analyze 16 high-resolution, fully cosmological simulations of the evolution of individual Milky Way-sized galaxies, carried out with the MHD code AREPO. At redshift zero, about $70\%...
