Impact of Cosmic Ray Distribution on the Growth and Saturation of Bell Instability

Saikat Das, Siddhartha Gupta, Prateek Sharma

Cosmic rays (CRs) streaming in weakly magnetized plasmas can drive large-amplitude magnetic fluctuations via nonresonant streaming instability (NRSI), or Bell instability. Using on…

Multiphase gas in Circumgalactic cloud complexes: Insights from kiloparsec-scale Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence Simulations

Rajsekhar Mohapatra, Alankar Dutta, Prateek Sharma

The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is the diffuse gas surrounding a galaxy's halo, and it plays a vital role in the galactic baryon cycle. However, its mass distribution across the vi…

Woven by the Whirls: The growth and entrainment of cold clouds in turbulent hot winds

Ritali Ghosh, Max Gronke, Prateek Sharma +1

Galactic and intergalactic flows often exhibit relative motion between the cold dense gas and the hot diffuse medium. Such multiphase flows -- involving gas at different temperatur…

Structure of Turbulent Radiative Mixing Layers

Prateek Sharma, Arnav Kumar, Dipayan Datta +3

Turbulent radiative mixing layers (TRMLs), where shear-driven turbulence mixes dense and diffuse gas into rapidly cooling intermediate-temperature gas, are ubiquitous in the inters…

Fading in the Flow: Suppression of cold gas growth in expanding galactic outflows

Alankar Dutta, Prateek Sharma, Max Gronke

Multiphase outflows, revealed by multi-wavelength observations, are crucial in redistributing gas and metals within and around galaxies. These outflows are often modelled theoretic…

Misty, patchy, and turbulent: constraining the cool circumgalactic medium with mCC

Mukesh Singh Bisht, Prateek Sharma, Alankar Dutta +1

The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is the largest baryon reservoir around galaxies, but its extent, mass, and temperature distribution remain uncertain. We propose that cool gas ($\si…

Ram pressure stripping in clusters: Gravity can bind the ISM but not the CGM

Ritali Ghosh, Alankar Dutta, Prateek Sharma

We explore the survival of a galaxy's circumgalactic medium (CGM) as it experiences ram pressure stripping (RPS) moving through the intracluster medium (ICM). For a satellite galax…

Beyond radial profiles: Using log-normal distributions to model the multiphase circumgalactic medium

Alankar Dutta, Mukesh Singh Bisht, Prateek Sharma +3

Recent observations and simulations reveal that the circumgalactic medium (CGM) surrounding galaxies is multiphase, with the gas temperatures spanning a wide range at most radii, $…

Circumgalactic Gas and the Precipitation Limit

G. M. Voit, A. Babul, Iu. Babyk +15

During the last decade, numerous and varied observations, along with increasingly sophisticated numerical simulations, have awakened astronomers to the central role the circumgalac…
