Quantifying scatter in galaxy formation at the lowest masses

Ferah Munshi, Alyson Brooks, Elaad Applebaum +3

We predict the stellar mass -- halo mass (SMHM) relationship for dwarf galaxies, using simulated galaxies with peak halo masses of M M down into th…

One-Two Quench: A Double Minor Merger Scenario

N. Nicole Sanchez, Michael Tremmel, Jessica K. Werk +5

Using the N-body+Smoothed particle hydrodynamics code, ChaNGa, we identify two merger-driven processes\textemdash disk disruption and supermassive black hole (SMBH) feedback\textem…

Black Hole Growth and Feedback in Isolated Romulus25 Dwarf Galaxies

Ray Sharma, Alyson Brooks, Rachel S. Somerville +4

We investigate the effects of massive black hole growth on the structural evolution of dwarf galaxies within the Romulus25 cosmological hydrodynamical simulation. We study a sample…

Implementing Dust Shielding as a Criteria for Star Formation

Lindsey Byrne, Charlotte Christensen, Marios Tsekitsidis +2

Star formation is observed to be strongly correlated to dense regions of molecular gas. Although the exact nature of the link between star formation and molecular hydrogen is still…

Not So Heavy Metals: Black Hole Feedback Enriches The Circumgalactic Medium

N. Nicole Sanchez, Jessica K. Werk, Michael Tremmel +4

We examine the effects of SMBH feedback on the CGM using a cosmological hydrodynamic simulation \citep[{\sc Romulus25};][]{Tremmel2017} and a set of four zoom-in `genetically modif…

Tracing Outflowing Metals in Simulations of Dwarf and Spiral Galaxies

Charlotte R. Christensen, Romeel Dave, Alyson Brooks +2

We analyze the metal accumulation in dwarf and spiral galaxies by following the history of metal enrichment and outflows in a suite of twenty high-resolution simulated galaxies. Th…
