Be it therefore resolved: Cosmological Simulations of Dwarf Galaxies with Extreme Resolution
Coral Wheeler, Philip F. Hopkins, Andrew B. Pace +7
We study a suite of extremely high-resolution cosmological FIRE simulations of dwarf galaxies (), run to with resolut…
Phat ELVIS: The inevitable effect of the Milky Way's disk on its dark matter subhaloes
Tyler Kelley, James S. Bullock, Shea Garrison-Kimmel +3
We introduce an extension of the ELVIS project to account for the effects of the Milky Way galaxy on its subhalo population. Our simulation suite, Phat ELVIS, consists of twelve hi…
Dwarf Galaxies in CDM, WDM, and SIDM: Disentangling Baryons and Dark Matter Physics
Alex Fitts, Michael Boylan-Kolchin, Brandon Bozek +9
We present a suite of FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations of isolated field dwarf galaxies, all with masses of M at , across a r…
The Origins of the Circumgalactic Medium in the FIRE Simulations
Z. Hafen, C. -A. Faucher-Giguere, D. Angles-Alcazar +10
We use a particle tracking analysis to study the origins of the circumgalactic medium (CGM), separating it into (1) accretion from the intergalactic medium (IGM), (2) wind from the…
Under the Firelight: Stellar Tracers of the Local Dark Matter Velocity Distribution in the Milky Way
Lina Necib, Mariangela Lisanti, Shea Garrison-Kimmel +5
The Gaia era opens new possibilities for discovering the remnants of disrupted satellite galaxies in the Solar neighborhood. If the population of local accreted stars is correlated…
How low does it go? Too few Galactic satellites with standard reionization quenching
Andrew S. Graus, James S. Bullock, Tyler Kelley +3
A standard prediction of galaxy formation theory is that the ionizing background suppresses galaxy formation in haloes with peak circular velocities smaller than Vpeak ~ 20 km/s, r…
