Pre-supernova feedback mechanisms drive the destruction of molecular clouds in nearby star-forming disc galaxies
Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Mark R. Krumholz +28
It is a major open question which physical processes stop the accretion of gas onto giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and limit the efficiency at which gas is converted into stars with…
Constraining the formation of NGC1052-DF2 from its unusual globular cluster population
Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Benjamin W. Keller +1
The ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG) NGC1052-DF2 has a low dark matter content and hosts a very unusual globular cluster (GC) population, with a median luminosity times higher th…
The baryon cycle of Seven Dwarfs with superbubble feedback
Mattia Mina, Sijing Shen, Benjamin Walter Keller +3
We present results from a high-resolution, cosmological, CDM simulation of a group of field dwarf galaxies with the "superbubble" model for clustered SN feedback, accounting for…
Where did the globular clusters of the Milky Way form? Insights from the E-MOSAICS simulations
Benjamin W. Keller, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Joel Pfeffer +5
Globular clusters (GCs) are typically old, with most having formed at z >~ 2. This makes understanding their birth environments difficult, as they are typically too distant to obse…
The kinematics of globular cluster populations in the E-MOSAICS simulations and their implications for the assembly history of the Milky Way
Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Marta Reina-Campos +5
We present a detailed comparison of the Milky Way (MW) globular cluster (GC) kinematics with the 25 Milky Way-mass cosmological simulations from the E-MOSAICS project. While the MW…
Uncertainties in supernova input rates drive qualitative differences in simulations of galaxy evolution
Benjamin W. Keller, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen
Feedback from core collapse supernovae (SNe), the final stage of evolution of massive stars, is a key element in galaxy formation theory. The energy budget of SN feedback, as well…
Heart of Darkness: the influence of galactic dynamics on quenching star formation in galaxy spheroids
Jindra Gensior, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Benjamin W. Keller
Quenched galaxies are often observed to contain a strong bulge component. The key question is whether this reflects a causal connection - can star formation be quenched dynamically…
The AGORA high-resolution galaxy simulations comparison project: Public data release
Santi Roca-Fàbrega, Ji-hoon Kim, Joel R. Primack +11
As part of the AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project (Kim et al. 2014, 2016) we have generated a suite of isolated Milky Way-mass galaxy simulations using 9 s…
