How is cold, star-forming gas in galaxies affected by magnetic fields?
Kamran R. J. Bogue, Rowan J. Smith, Robin G. Tress +9
Numerical simulations provide a unique opportunity to improve our understanding of the role of magnetic fields in the interstellar medium of galaxies and in star formation. However…
Rhea-RT: Dynamical impact of Central Molecular Zone conditions on the properties of the interstellar medium and stellar feedback coupling
R. G. Tress, N. Brucy, P. Girichidis +22
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is an extreme star formation environment, characterized by higher density, higher turbulence, stronger orbital shear, and stronger magnetic field s…
Steady-State or Not? The Evolution of Cosmic Ray Electron Spectra in Galaxies
Maria Werhahn, Christoph Pfrommer, Joseph Whittingham +4
Cosmic ray (CR) electrons are key tracers of non-thermal processes in galaxies, yet their spectra are often modelled under the untested assumption of steady state between injection…
Impact of Cosmic Ray Acceleration on the Early Evolution of Bow Shocks around Massive Runaway Stars
Keito Watanabe, Stefanie Walch, Tim-Eric Rathjen +3
Bow shocks generated from the interaction of winds from massive runaway stars with the interstellar medium have been shown to be prominent particle accelerators through recent -…
SILCC -- IX. The multi-phase interstellar medium at low metallicity
Vittoria Brugaletta, Stefanie Walch, Thorsten Naab +8
The gas-phase metallicity affects heating and cooling processes in the star-forming galactic interstellar medium (ISM) as well as ionising luminosities, wind strengths, and lifetim…
Implementation of CR Energy SPectrum (CRESP) algorithm in PIERNIK MHD code. II. Propagation of Primary and Secondary nuclei in a magneto-hydrodynamical environment
Antoine Baldacchino-Jordan, Michał Hanasz, Mateusz Ogrodnik +4
We developed a new model for the production and propagation of spectrally resolved primary and secondary Cosmic Ray (CR) nuclei elements within the framework of the Cosmic Ray Ener…
Modeling Local Bubble analogs II: Synthetic Faraday rotation maps
Efrem Maconi, Stefan Reissl, Juan D. Soler +4
Faraday rotation describes the change of the linear polarization angle of radiation passing through a magnetized plasma and it is quantified by the rotation measure (RM), which is…
The role of turbulence in setting the phase of the ISM and implications for the star formation rate
Tine Colman, Patrick Hennebelle, Noé Brucy +10
In this work, we explore the link between star formation, turbulence and the thermal state of the multi-phase ISM. We analyse a suite of stratified box simulations modelling a real…
Introducing the Rhea simulations of Milky-Way-like galaxies I: Effect of gravitational potential on morphology and star formation
Junia Göller, Philipp Girichidis, Noé Brucy +11
The Milky Way is a complex ecosystem, for which we can obtain detailed observations probing the physical mechanisms determining the interstellar medium. For a detailed comparison w…
The dynamical impact of cosmic rays in the Rhea magnetohydrodynamics simulations
Karin Kjellgren, Philipp Girichidis, Junia Göoller +10
This study explores the dynamical impact of cosmic rays (CRs) in Milky Way-like galaxies using the Rhea simulation suite. Cosmic rays, with their substantial energy density, influe…
The fragmentation of molecular clouds in starburst environments
Matt T. Cusack, Paul C. Clark, Simon C. O. Glover +4
A significant amount of star formation occurs and has occurred in environments unlike the solar neighbourhood. The majority of stars formed closer to the peak of the cosmic star fo…
