The launching condition of a jet driven by the magnetic field and radiation pressure of an accretion disc

Xinwu Cao

We find that the cold gas can be magnetically launched from the disc surface with the help of the radiation pressure if the angular velocity of the radiation pressure dominated acc…

Subhaloes gone Notts: Spin across subhaloes and finders

Julian Onions, Yago Ascasibar, Peter Behroozi +15

We present a study of a comparison of spin distributions of subhaloes found associated with a host halo. The subhaloes are found within two cosmological simulation families of Milk…

Exploring the Cosmic Reionization Epoch in Frequency Space: An Improved Approach to Remove the Foreground in 21 cm Tomography

Jingying Wang, Haiguang Xu, Tao An +7

Aiming to correctly restore the redshifted 21 cm signals emitted by the neutral hydrogen during the cosmic reionization processes, we re-examine the separation approaches based on…

Stellar mass versus stellar velocity dispersion: which is better for linking galaxies to their dark matter halos?

Cheng Li, Lixin Wang, Y. P. Jing

It was recently suggested that, compared to its stellar mass (M*), the central stellar velocity dispersion (sigma*) of a galaxy might be a better indicator for its host dark matter…
