Data release of UV to submm broadband fluxes for simulated galaxies from
  the EAGLE project
  We present dust-attenuated and dust emission fluxes for sufficiently resolved
galaxies in the EAGLE suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations,
calculated with the SKIRT radiative transfer code. The post-processing
procedure includes specific components for star formation regions, stellar
sources, and diffuse dust, and takes into account stochastic heating of dust
grains to obtain realistic broad-band fluxes in the wavelength range from
ultraviolet to sub-millimeter. The mock survey includes nearly half a million
simulated galaxies with stellar masses above 10^8.5 solar masses across six
EAGLE models. About two thirds of these galaxies, residing in 23 redshift bins
up to z=6, have a sufficiently resolved metallic gas distribution to derive
meaningful dust attenuation and emission, with the important caveat that the
same dust properties were used at all redshifts. These newly released data
complement the already publicly available information about the EAGLE galaxies,
which includes intrinsic properties derived by aggregating the properties of
the smoothed particles representing matter in the simulation. We further
provide an open source framework of Python procedures for post-processing
simulated galaxies with the radiative transfer code SKIRT. The framework allows
any third party to calculate synthetic images, SEDs, and broadband fluxes for
EAGLE galaxies, taking into account the effects of dust attenuation and
emission.
