Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). IV. The Stochasticity of Ram Pressure Stripping in Galactic Halos

Raymond C. Simons, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +9

We study ram pressure stripping in simulated Milky Way-like halos at z>=2 from the Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE) project. These simulations reach exquisite resolutio…

Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). III. The Mocky Way: Investigating Biases in Observing the Milky Way's Circumgalactic Medium

Yong Zheng, Molly S. Peeples, Brian W. O'Shea +6

The circumgalactic medium (CGM) of the Milky Way is mostly obscured by nearby gas in position-velocity space because we reside inside the Galaxy. Substantial biases exist in most s…

A Need for Dedicated Outreach Expertise and Online Programming: Astro2020 Science White Paper

Amanda E Bauer, Britt Lundgren, William O'Mullane +4

Maximizing the public impact of astronomy projects in the next decade requires NSF-funded centers to support the development of online, mobile-friendly outreach and education activ…

Understanding the circumgalactic medium is critical for understanding galaxy evolution

Molly S. Peeples, Peter Behroozi, Rongmon Bordoloi +69

Galaxies evolve under the influence of gas flows between their interstellar medium and their surrounding gaseous halos known as the circumgalactic medium (CGM). The CGM is a major…

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…
