DUVET Survey: Mapping Outflows in the Metal-Poor Starburst Mrk 1486
Daniel K. McPherson, Deanne B. Fisher, Nikole M. Nielsen +11
We present a method to characterize star-formation driven outflows from edge-on galaxies and apply this method to the metal-poor starburst galaxy, Mrk 1486. Our method uses the dis…
Not gone with the Wind: Survival of High-Velocity Molecular Clouds in the Galactic center
Mengfei Zhang, Miao Li
High-velocity atomic clouds in the Galactic center have attracted significant attention due to their enigmatic formation process, which is potentially linked to the starburst or su…
Inspiraling streams of enriched gas observed around a massive galaxy 11 billion years ago
Shiwu Zhang, Zheng Cai, Dandan Xu +19
Stars form in galaxies, from gas that has been accreted from the intergalactic medium. Simulations have shown that recycling of gas-the reaccretion of gas that was previously eject…
DUVET: Spatially Resolved Observations of Star Formation Regulation via Galactic Outflows in a Starbursting Disk Galaxy
Bronwyn Reichardt Chu, Deanne B. Fisher, Alberto D. Bolatto +14
We compare 500~pc scale, resolved observations of ionised and molecular gas for the starbursting disk galaxy IRAS08339+6517, using measurements from KCWI and NOEMA. We…
X-ray Emission from the Interstellar and Circumgalactic Medium of Elliptical Galaxies based on MACER simulations
Aditi Vijayan, Bocheng Zhu, Miao Li +2
Interstellar (ISM) and circumgalactic mediums (CGM) around galaxies are linked to several physical processes that drive galaxy evolution. For example, the X-ray emission from the C…
The DUVET Survey: Resolved Maps of Star Formation Driven Outflows in a Compact, Starbursting Disk Galaxy
Bronwyn Reichardt Chu, Deanne B. Fisher, Nikole M. Nielsen +9
We study star formation driven outflows in a starbursting disk galaxy, IRAS08339+6517, using spatially resolved measurements from the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI). We…
X-ray Spectra of Circumgalactic Medium Around Star-Forming Galaxies: Connecting Simulations to Observations
Aditi Vijayan, Miao Li
The hot component of the circum-galactic medium (CGM) around star forming galaxies is detected as diffuse X-ray emission. The X-ray spectra from the CGM depend on the temperature a…
First results from SMAUG: Uncovering the Origin of the Multiphase Circumgalactic Medium with a Comparative Analysis of Idealized and Cosmological Simulations
Drummond B. Fielding, Stephanie Tonnesen, Daniel DeFelippis +12
We examine the properties of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) at low redshift in a range of simulated Milky Way mass halos. The sample is comprised of seven idealized simulations, a…
Kinematics and Dynamics of Multiphase Outflows in Simulations of the Star-Forming Galactic ISM
Aditi Vijayan, Chang-Goo Kim, Lucia Armillotta +2
Galactic outflows produced by stellar feedback are known to be multiphase in nature. Both observations and simulations indicate that the material within several kpc of galactic dis…
Direct Detection of Black Hole-Driven Turbulence in the Centers of Galaxy Clusters
Yuan Li, Marie-Lou Gendron-Marsolais, Irina Zhuravleva +16
Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are thought to provide energy that prevents catastrophic cooling in the centers of massive galaxies and galaxy clusters. However, it remains unclea…
Simple Yet Powerful: Hot Galactic Outflows Driven by Supernovae
Miao Li, Greg L. Bryan
Supernovae (SNe) drive multiphase galactic outflows, impacting galaxy formation; however, cosmological simulations mostly use \textit{ad hoc} feedback models for outflows, making o…
The Impact of Type Ia Supernovae in Quiescent Galaxies: I. Formation of the Multiphase Interstellar medium
Miao Li, Yuan Li, Greg L. Bryan +2
A cool phase of the interstellar medium has been observed in many giant elliptical galaxies, but its origin remains unclear. We propose that uneven heating from Type Ia supernovae…
Properties of the Simulated Circumgalactic Medium
Cassandra Lochhaas, Greg L. Bryan, Yuan Li +2
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is closely linked to galaxy formation and evolution, but difficult to characterize observationally and typically poorly resolved in cosmological sim…
Simulating Gas Inflow at the Disk-Halo Interface
Nicole Melso, Greg L. Bryan, Miao Li
The interaction between inflowing gas clouds and galactic outflows at the interface where the galactic disk transitions into the circumgalactic medium is an important process in ga…
Massive black hole and Population III galaxy formation in over-massive dark matter halos with violent merger histories
Kohei Inayoshi, Miao Li, Zoltan Haiman
We propose the formation of massive pristine dark-matter (DM) halos with masses of , due to the dynamical effects of frequent mergers in rare regions of the Univ…
OVI Emission From the Supernovae-regulated Interstellar Medium: Simulation Vs Observation
Miao Li, Greg Bryan, Jeremiah P. Ostriker
The OVI 1032, 1038Å doublet emission traces collisionally ionized gas with K, where the cooling curve peaks for metal-enriched plasma. This warm-hot phase i…
Quantifying Supernovae-Driven Multiphase Galactic Outflows
Miao Li, Greg L. Bryan, Jeremiah P. Ostriker
Galactic outflows are ubiquitously observed in star-forming disk galaxies and are critical for galaxy formation. Supernovae (SNe) play the key role in driving the outflows, but the…
Supernova Feedback and the Hot Gas Filling Fraction of the Interstellar Medium
Miao Li, Jeremiah P. Ostriker, Renyue Cen +2
Supernovae (SN), the most energetic stellar feedback mechanism, are crucial for regulating the interstellar medium (ISM) and launching galactic winds. We explore how supernova remn…
