Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). XV. Examining the Spatial and Kinematic Relationship between Circumgalactic Mg II and O VI
Mackenzie Ticoras, Brian W. O'Shea, Claire Kopenhafer +9
Understanding the thermodynamic properties of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is key to uncovering the baryon cycle in galaxies. Here we present spatial and kinematic relationships…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). XIV. The Observability of Emission from Accretion and Feedback in the Circumgalactic Medium with Current and Future Instruments
Vida Saeedzadeh, Jason Tumlinson, Molly S. Peeples +11
Observing the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in emission lines from ionized gas enables direct mapping of its spatial and kinematic structure, offering new insight into the gas flows…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). XIII. On the Observability of Extended HI Disks and Warps
Cameron W. Trapp, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +6
Atomic Hydrogen (HI) is a useful tracer of gas in and around galaxies, and can be found in extended disk-like structures well beyond a system's optical extent. Here, we investigate…
FOGGIE: Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo XII. The Formation and Evolution of Extended HI Galactic Disks and Warps with a Dynamic Circumgalactic medium
Cameron W. Trapp, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +8
Atomic hydrogen (HI) is an important component of gas in and around galaxies and forms extended disk-like structures well beyond the extent of starlight. Here we investigate the pr…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE) XI: Circumgalactic O VI Emission Traces Clumpy Inflowing Recycled Gas
Cassandra Lochhaas, Molly S. Peeples, Brian W. O'Shea +11
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is host to gas flows into and out of galaxies and regulates galaxy growth, but the multiphase, diffuse gas in this region is challenging to observe.…
Project AMIGA: The Inner Circumgalactic Medium of Andromeda from Thick Disk to Halo
Nicolas Lehner, J. Christopher Howk, Lucy Collins +22
The inner circumgalactic medium (CGM) of galaxies, where disk and halo processes intersect, remains poorly characterized despite its critical role in regulating galaxy evolution. W…
Metagalactic Ultraviolet Background Tables for Calculating Diffuse Astrophysical Plasma Properties
Elias Taira, Claire Kopenhafer, Brian W. O'Shea
In developing a deeper understanding of the Circumgalactic Medium, one feature that is poorly understood is the nature of the ultraviolet background (UVB) and its impact on observe…
FOGGIE X: Characterizing the Small-Scale Structure of the CGM and its Imprint on Observables
Ramona Augustin, Jason Tumlinson, Molly S. Peeples +11
One of the main unknowns in galaxy evolution is how gas flows into and out of galaxies in the circumgalactic medium (CGM). Studies observing the CGM in absorption using multiple or…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). IX: The Angular Momentum Evolution of Milky Way-like Galaxies and their Circumgalactic Gas
Raymond C. Simons, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +10
We investigate the co-evolution of the angular momentum of Milky Way-like galaxies, their circumgalactic gas, and their dark matter halos using zoom-in simulations from the Figurin…
Why does the Milky Way have a metallicity floor?
Britton D. Smith, Brian W. O'Shea, Sadegh Khochfar +3
The prevalence of light element enhancement in the most metal-poor stars is potentially an indication that the Milky Way has a metallicity floor for star formation around 10$…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE) VIII: Complex and Stochastic Metallicity Gradients at z > 2
Ayan Acharyya, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +7
Gas-phase metallicity gradients are a crucial element in understanding the chemical evolution of galaxies. We use the FOGGIE simulations to study the metallicity gradients ($\nabla…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE) VII: The (Dis)Assembly of Stellar Halos
Anna C. Wright, Jason Tumlinson, Molly S. Peeples +7
Over the next decade, the astronomical community will be commissioning multiple wide-field observatories well-suited for studying stellar halos in both integrated light and resolve…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). II. Emission from the z=3 Circumgalactic Medium
Lauren Corlies, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +4
Observing the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in emission provides 3D maps of the spatial and kinematic extent of the gas that fuels galaxies and receives their feedback. We present mo…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). I. Resolving Simulated Circumgalactic Absorption at 2 < z < 2.5
Molly S. Peeples, Lauren Corlies, Jason Tumlinson +7
We present simulations from the new "Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo" (FOGGIE) project. In contrast to most extant simulations of galaxy formation, which concentrate computatio…
The Second Data Release of the KODIAQ Survey
John M. O'Meara, Nicolas Lehner, J. Christopher Howk +5
We present and make publicly available the second data release (DR2) of the Keck Observatory Database of Ionized Absorption toward Quasars (KODIAQ) survey. KODIAQ DR2 consists of a…
Protostellar Feedback Processes and the Mass of the First Stars
Jonathan C. Tan, Britton D. Smith, Brian W. O'Shea
We review theoretical models of Population III.1 star formation, focusing on the protostellar feedback processes that are expected to terminate accretion and thus set the mass of t…
