The impact of feedback on cosmological gas accretion
Dylan Nelson, Shy Genel, Mark Vogelsberger +4
We investigate how the way galaxies acquire their gas across cosmic time in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations is modified by a comprehensive physical model for baryonic feedbac…
Numerical Convergence in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Qirong Zhu, Lars Hernquist, Yuexing Li
We study the convergence properties of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) using numerical tests and simple analytic considerations. Our analysis shows that formal numerical conv…
Properties of galaxies reproduced by a hydrodynamic simulation
Mark Vogelsberger, Shy Genel, Volker Springel +7
Previous simulations of the growth of cosmic structures have broadly reproduced the 'cosmic web' of galaxies that we see in the Universe, but failed to create a mixed population of…
Damped Lyman-alpha absorbers as a probe of stellar feedback
Simeon Bird, Mark Vogelsberger, Martin Haehnelt +5
We examine the abundance, clustering and metallicity of Damped Lyman-alpha Absorbers (DLAs) in a suite of hydrodynamic cosmological simulations using the moving mesh code AREPO. We…
Introducing the Illustris Project: the evolution of galaxy populations across cosmic time
Shy Genel, Mark Vogelsberger, Volker Springel +6
We present an overview of galaxy evolution across cosmic time in the Illustris Simulation. Illustris is an N-body/hydrodynamical simulation that evolves 2*1820^3 resolution element…
Introducing the Illustris Project: Simulating the coevolution of dark and visible matter in the Universe
Mark Vogelsberger, Shy Genel, Volker Springel +6
We introduce the Illustris Project, a series of large-scale hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation. The highest resolution simulation, Illustris-1, covers a volume of $(106…
The Effects of Varying Cosmological Parameters on Halo Substructure
Gregory A. Dooley, Brendan F. Griffen, Phillip Zukin +4
We investigate how different cosmological parameters, such as those delivered by the WMAP and Planck missions, affect the nature and evolution of dark matter halo substructure. We…
Complexity Phenomena and ROMA of the Magnetospheric Cusp, Hydrodynamic Turbulence, and the Cosmic Web
Tom Chang, Cheng-chin Wu, Marius Echim +4
Dynamic Complexity is a phenomenon exhibited by a nonlinearly interacting system within which multitudes of different sizes of large scale coherent structures emerge, resulting in…
