Clump Survival and Migration in VDI Galaxies: an Analytic Model versus Simulations and Observations
Avishai Dekel, Nir Mandelker, Frederic Bournaud +3
We address the nature of the giant clumps in high-z galaxies that undergo Violent Disc Instability, attempting to distinguish between long-lived clumps that migrate inward and shor…

Thermal Instabilities and Shattering in the High-Redshift WHIM: Convergence Criteria and Implications for Low-Metallicity Strong HI Absorbers
Nir Mandelker, Frank C. van den Bosch, Volker Springel +5
Using a novel suite of cosmological simulations zooming in on a Mpc-scale intergalactic sheet or "pancake" at z~3-5, we conduct an in-depth study of the thermal properties and HI c…
