Resolved UV and optical color gradients reveal environmental influence on galaxy evolution at redshift z1.6

William J. Cramer, A. G. Noble, G. Rudnick +13

The changes in colors across a galaxy are intimately connected to the galaxy's formation, growth, quenching history, and dust content. A particularly important epoch in the growth…

The first quenched galaxies, when and how?

Lizhi Xie, Gabriella De Lucia, Fabio Fontanot +11

Many quiescent galaxies discovered in the early Universe by \textit{JWST} raise fundamental questions on when and how these galaxies became and stayed quenched. Making use of the l…

Cosmic gas highways in C-EAGLE simulations

I. Vurm, J. Nevalainen, S. E. Hong +3

A substantial fraction of the cosmic baryons is expected to hide in the form of diffuse warm-hot intergalactic medium (WHIM), the majority of which resides in the filaments of the…

The importance of the way in which supernova energy is distributed around young stellar populations in simulations of galaxies

Evgenii Chaikin, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +3

Supernova (SN) feedback plays a crucial role in simulations of galaxy formation. Because blastwaves from individual SNe occur on scales that remain unresolved in modern cosmologica…

Simulating Groups and the IntraGroup Medium: The Surprisingly Complex and Rich Middle Ground Between Clusters and Galaxies

Benjamin D. Oppenheimer, Arif Babul, Yannick Bahé +2

Galaxy groups are more than an intermediate scale between clusters and halos hosting individual galaxies, they are crucial laboratories capable of testing a range of astrophysics f…
