KURVS: The outer rotation curve shapes and dark matter fractions of star-forming galaxies

Annagrazia Puglisi, Ugnė Dudzevičiūtė, Mark Swinbank +14

We present first results from the KMOS Ultra-deep Rotation Velocity Survey (KURVS), aimed at studying the outer rotation curves shape and dark matter content of 22 star-forming gal…

The impact and response of minihalos and the inter-halo medium on cosmic reionization

Tsang Keung Chan, Alejandro Benitez-Llambay, Tom Theuns +2

An ionization front (I-front) that propagates through an inhomogeneous medium is slowed down by self-shielding and recombinations. We perform cosmological radiation hydrodynamics s…

EAGLE-like simulation models do not solve the entropy core problem in groups and clusters of galaxies

Edoardo Altamura, Scott T. Kay, Richard G. Bower +5

Recent high-resolution cosmological hydrodynamic simulations run with a variety of codes systematically predict large amounts of entropy in the intra-cluster medium at low redshift…

A sparse regression approach for populating dark matter halos and subhalos with galaxies

M. Icaza-Lizaola, Richard G. Bower, Peder Norberg +2

We use sparse regression methods (SRM) to build accurate and explainable models that predict the stellar mass of central and satellite galaxies as a function of properties of their…

The importance of black hole repositioning for galaxy formation simulations

Yannick M. Bahé, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +6

Active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback from accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) is an essential ingredient of galaxy formation simulations. The orbital evolution of SMBHs is…

Smoothed Particle Radiation Hydrodynamics: Two-Moment method with Local Eddington Tensor Closure

T. K. Chan, Tom Theuns, Richard Bower +1

We present a new radiative transfer method (SPH-M1RT) that is coupled dynamically with smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). We implement it in the (task-based parallel) SWIFT gal…
