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…
The Spatially Resolved Hot Gas Properties of NGC 1266's AGN-Driven Outflow
Sebastian Lopez, Laura A. Lopez, Lauranne Lanz +2
Galactic winds play a critical role in galaxy evolution, yet their structure and driving mechanisms remain poorly understood, especially in low-luminosity AGN (LLAGN) systems. NGC~…
Investigating the Gamma-Ray Emission from Explosive Dispersal Outflows with Fermi-LAT
Paarmita Pandey, Stephen C. Lenker, Laura A. Lopez +6
We present the first systematic study of explosive dispersal outflows (EDOs) as potential sources of high-energy emission in the Milky Way. EDOs are energetic outflows produced dur…
Constraining the Sub-Galactic Relationship Between Star Formation and the Hot Interstellar Medium in NGC 4254
Erik B. Monson, Bret D. Lehmer, Amirnezam Amiri +17
We investigate the relationship between star formation and X-ray emission from the hot interstellar medium (ISM) on kpc scales in NGC 4254 (M99) by combining spatially resolv…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: PAHs Closely Trace the Cool Phase of M82's Galactic Wind
Sebastian Lopez, Colton Ring, Adam K. Leroy +30
Stellar feedback drives multiphase gas outflows from starburst galaxies, but the interpretation of dust emission in these winds remains uncertain. To investigate this, we analyze n…
Taming the Tarantula: How Stellar Wind Feedback Shapes Gas and Dust in 30 Doradus
Jennifer A. Rodriguez, Laura A. Lopez, Lachlan Lancaster +5
Observations of massive star-forming regions show that classical stellar wind models over-predict the luminosity of the X-ray emitting gas, indicating a significant fraction of win…
