The Prevalence of Turbulence-Regulated Multiphase Galactic Winds in Star-Forming Galaxies
Zhihui Li, Timothy Heckman, Max Gronke +8
We build upon our previously developed multi-ion radiative transfer (RT) framework, PEACOCK, to investigate the kinematic and energetic structure of cool-to-warm galactic winds in…
Kinematically Coherent Multiphase Galactic Winds in Star-Forming Galaxies Revealed by Unified Radiative Transfer Modeling of UV Emission and Absorption Lines
Zhihui Li, Timothy Heckman, Max Gronke +8
We present PEACOCK, a three-dimensional Monte Carlo radiative transfer (RT) framework designed to self-consistently model rest-frame ultraviolet emission and absorption lines arisi…
Simulating High-Velocity Clouds in the Observational Plane: An Initial Study with the Smith Cloud
Lori E. Porter, Matthew Abruzzo, Greg L. Bryan +3
High-velocity clouds (HVCs) may fuel future star formation in the Milky Way, but they must first survive their passage through the hot halo. While recent work has improved our unde…
Dust Survival in Galactic Winds
Helena M. Richie, Evan E. Schneider, Matthew W. Abruzzo +1
We present a suite of high-resolution numerical simulations to study the evolution and survival of dust in hot galactic winds. We implement a novel dust framework in the Cholla hyd…
TuRMoiL of Survival: A Unified Survival Criterion for Cloud-Wind Interactions
Matthew W. Abruzzo, Drummond B. Fielding, Greg L. Bryan
Cloud-wind interactions play an important role in long-lived multiphase flows in many astrophysical contexts. When this interaction is primarily mediated by hydrodynamics and radia…
Taming the TuRMoiL: The Temperature Dependence of Turbulence in Cloud-Wind Interactions
Matthew W. Abruzzo, Drummond B. Fielding, Greg L. Bryan
Turbulent radiative mixing layers (TRMLs) play an important role in many astrophysical contexts where cool ( K) clouds interact with hot flows (e.g., galactic winds,…
A simple model for mixing and cooling in cloud-wind interactions
Matthew W. Abruzzo, Greg L. Bryan, Drummond B. Fielding
We introduce a simple entropy-based formalism to characterize the role of mixing in pressure-balanced multiphase clouds, and demonstrate example applications using Enzo-E (magneto)…
Powderday: Dust Radiative Transfer for Galaxy Simulations
Desika Narayanan, Matthew J. Turk, Thomas Robitaille +18
We present Powderday, a flexible, fast, open-source dust radiative transfer package designed to interface with galaxy formation simulations. Powderday builds on FSPS population syn…
Identifying Mergers Using Quantitative Morphologies in Zoom Simulations of High-Redshift Galaxies
Matthew W. Abruzzo, Desika Narayanan, Romeel Davé +1
Non-parametric morphology measures are a powerful tool for identifying galaxy mergers at low redshifts. We employ cosmological zoom simulations using Gizmo with the Mufasa feedback…
