Illuminating M82: Simulating X-ray Emission from Galactic Winds in a Starburst Galaxy
Allison Lin, Lachlan Lancaster, Viraj Pandya +6
We generate mock X-ray observations from a suite of idealized high-resolution ( pc), tall-box ( kpc) simulations of star formation driven gala…
Phase-dependent magnetic coherence in the turbulent interstellar medium
Iryna S. Butsky, Caleb Redshaw, Minjie Lei +2
Magnetic fields permeate the multiphase interstellar medium (ISM), yet their phase-dependent structure remains poorly constrained by observations. Dust polarization and \ion{H}{1}…
Clumps in a Cocoon: Geometry and Mixing Set the Universal X-ray to H Surface Brightness Ratio
Zirui Chen, S. Peng Oh, Drummond B. Fielding +3
Recent observations reveal a universal X-ray to H surface-brightness ratio, , in galactic winds, ram-pressure stripped tails, and clu…
Hot accretion onto spiral galaxies: the origin of extended and warped HI discs
Sriram Sankar, Jonathan Stern, Chris Power +6
Gas accretion, hot ( K) atmospheres, and a tilt between the rotation axes of the disc and the atmosphere are all common predictions of standard galaxy evolution theory f…
The Origin of Da Scaling: Suppressed Cooling in Fast-Cooling Mixing Layers
Lachlan Lancaster, Drummond B. Fielding, Rajsekhar Mohapatra +1
In numerical experiments simulating Turbulent Radiative Mixing Layers (TRMLs) it is observed that as the cooling time in the mixed gas, , becomes very short compared…
Ceci n'est pas une Couche de Mélange: The Meaning of Resolved Turbulent Radiative Mixing
Lachlan Lancaster, Rajsekhar Mohapatra, Drummond B. Fielding +1
Turbulent Radiative Mixing Layers (TRMLs) are of fundamental importance to the transport of energy and momentum in multi-phase, astrophysical fluids. We use measurements of the "mi…
