Variations in the slope of the resolved star-forming main sequence: a tool for constraining the mass of star-forming regions
Maan H. Hani, Christopher C. Hayward, Matthew E. Orr +5
The correlation between galaxies' integrated stellar masses and star formation rates (the `star formation main sequence'; SFMS) is a well-established scaling relation. Recently, su…
Direct Detection of Black Hole-Driven Turbulence in the Centers of Galaxy Clusters
Yuan Li, Marie-Lou Gendron-Marsolais, Irina Zhuravleva +16
Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are thought to provide energy that prevents catastrophic cooling in the centers of massive galaxies and galaxy clusters. However, it remains unclea…
Live Fast, Die Young: GMC lifetimes in the FIRE cosmological simulations of Milky Way-mass galaxies
Samantha M. Benincasa, Sarah R. Loebman, Andrew Wetzel +6
We present the first measurement of the lifetimes of Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in cosmological simulations at , using the Latte suite of FIRE-2 simulations of Milky Way-…
Swirls of FIRE: Spatially Resolved Gas Velocity Dispersions and Star Formation Rates in FIRE-2 Disk Environments
Matthew E. Orr, Christopher C. Hayward, Anne M. Medling +6
We study the spatially resolved (sub-kpc) gas velocity dispersion ()--star formation rate (SFR) relation in the FIRE-2 (Feedback in Realistic Environments) cosmological simulati…
The Fates of the Circumgalactic Medium in the FIRE Simulations
Z. Hafen, C. -A. Faucher-Giguere, D. Angles-Alcazar +7
We analyze the different fates of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in FIRE-2 cosmological simulations, focusing on the redshifts z=0.25 and z=2 representative of recent surveys. Our…
Properties of the Circumgalactic Medium in Cosmic Ray-Dominated Galaxy Halos
Suoqing Ji, T. K. Chan, Cameron B. Hummels +6
We investigate the impact of cosmic rays (CRs) on the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in FIRE-2 simulations, for ultra-faint dwarf through Milky Way (MW)-mass halos hosting star-formin…
