Cosmological Galaxy Formation Modelling in the Era of the Square Kilometre Array
Claudia del P. Lagos, Carlton M. Baugh, Connor Bottrell +11
Over the past decade, galaxy formation simulations have advanced dramatically, transforming our ability to model the interstellar medium (ISM) and predict galaxies' radio emission.…
WISDOM Project - XXVII. Giant molecular clouds of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1387: similarities with spiral galaxy clouds
Fu-Heng Liang, Martin Bureau, Lijie Liu +10
Molecular gas is crucial to understanding star formation and galaxy evolution, but the giant molecular clouds (GMCs) of early-type galaxies (ETGs) have rarely been studied. Here, w…
Stellar-mass black holes on the millimetre fundamental plane of black hole accretion
Jacob S. Elford, Ilaria Ruffa, Timothy A. Davis +5
Recent work revealed the existence of a galaxy "millimetre fundamental plane of black hole accretion", a tight correlation between nuclear mm luminosity, intrinsic - keV…
The Nature of Post-Starburst Galaxies: Real Deal or Masquerading Impostors?
Elia Cenci, Robert Feldmann, Sarah Wellons +7
Post-starburst galaxies (PSBs) are a population of galaxies with spectral and photometric features indicative of rapid quenching following a recent starburst. The origin and nature…
Reconciling extragalactic star formation efficiencies with theory: insights from PHANGS
Sharon E. Meidt, Simon C. O. Glover, Ralf S. Klessen +22
New extragalactic measurements of the cloud population-averaged star formation (SF) efficiency per freefall time from PHANGS show little sign of theoretically predi…
WISDOM project -- XXIII. Star-formation efficiencies of eight early-type galaxies and bulges observed with SITELLE and ALMA
Anan Lu, Daryl Haggard, Martin Bureau +18
Early-type galaxies (ETGs) are known to harbour dense spheroids of stars with scarce star formation (SF). Approximately a quarter of these galaxies have rich molecular gas reservoi…
The resolved star-formation efficiency of early-type galaxies
Thomas G. Williams, Francesco Belfiore, Martin Bureau +19
Understanding how and why star formation varies between galaxies is fundamental to our comprehension of galaxy evolution. In particular, the star-formation efficiency (SFE; star-fo…
EMBER-2: Emulating baryons from dark matter across cosmic time with deep modulation networks
Mauro Bernardini, Robert Feldmann, Jindra Gensior +6
Galaxy formation is a complex problem that connects large scale cosmology with small scale astrophysics over cosmic timescales. Hydrodynamical simulations are the most principled a…
Cloud-scale gas properties, depletion times, and star formation efficiency per free-fall time in PHANGS--ALMA
Adam K. Leroy, Jiayi Sun, Sharon Meidt +31
We compare measurements of star formation efficiency to cloud-scale gas properties across PHANGS-ALMA. Dividing 67 galaxies into 1.5 kpc scale regions, we calculate the molecular g…
Learning the Universe: GalactISM simulations of resolved star formation and galactic outflows across main sequence and quenched galactic environments
Sarah M. R. Jeffreson, Eve C. Ostriker, Chang-Goo Kim +5
We present a suite of six high-resolution chemo-dynamical simulations of isolated galaxies, spanning observed disk-dominated environments on the star-forming main sequence, as well…
WISDOM project XX -- Strong shear tearing molecular clouds apart in NGC 524
Anan Lu, Daryl Haggard, Martin Bureau +17
Early-type galaxies (ETGs) are known to harbour dense spheroids of stars but scarce star formation (SF). Approximately a quarter of these galaxies have rich molecular gas reservoir…
WISDOM Project -- XXI. Giant molecular clouds in the central region of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 613: a steep size -- linewidth relation
Woorak Choi, Martin Bureau, Lijie Liu +9
NGC~613 is a nearby barred spiral galaxy with a nuclear ring. Exploiting high spatial resolution ( pc) Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array CO(1-0) obser…
Inflow and outflow properties, not total gas fractions, drive the evolution of the mass-metallicity relation
Luigi Bassini, Robert Feldmann, Jindra Gensior +5
Observations show a tight correlation between the stellar mass of galaxies and their gas-phase metallicity (MZR). This relation evolves with redshift, with higher-redshift galaxies…
WISDOM Project -- XVI. The link between circumnuclear molecular gas reservoirs and active galactic nucleus fuelling
Jacob S. Elford, Timothy A. Davis, Ilaria Ruffa +8
We use high-resolution data from the millimetre-Wave Interferometric Survey of Dark Object Masses (WISDOM) project to investigate the connection between circumnuclear gas reservoir…
Starburst-induced gas-stars kinematic misalignment
Elia Cenci, Robert Feldmann, Jindra Gensior +4
A kinematic misalignment of the stellar and gas components is a phenomenon observed in a significant fraction of galaxies. However, the underlying physical mechanisms are not well…
The WISDOM of power spectra: how the galactic gravitational potential impacts a galaxy's central gas reservoir in simulations and observations

Observations indicate that the central gas discs are smoother in early-type galaxies than their late-type counterparts, while recent simulations predict that the dynamical suppress…
HI discs of L galaxies as probes of the baryonic physics of galaxy evolution
Jindra Gensior, Robert Feldmann, Marta Reina-Campos +7
Understanding what shapes the cold gas component of galaxies, which both provides the fuel for star formation and is strongly affected by the subsequent stellar feedback, is a cruc…
