The Thesan-Zoom project: bursty star formation is incompatible with prolonged dust survival
Enrico Garaldi, Filip Popovic, Rahul Kannan +11
Cosmic dust is a key regulator of galaxy evolution, but its build-up and survival in the first billion years remain poorly constrained. We present a systematic analysis of dust in…
The THESAN-ZOOM project: central starbursts and inside-out quenching govern galaxy sizes in the early Universe
William McClymont, Sandro Tacchella, Aaron Smith +9
We explore the evolution of galaxy sizes at high redshift () using the high-resolution THESAN-ZOOM radiation-hydrodynamics simulations, focusing on the mass range of $1…
The THESAN-ZOOM project: Burst, quench, repeat -- unveiling the evolution of high-redshift galaxies along the star-forming main sequence
William McClymont, Sandro Tacchella, Aaron Smith +10
Characterizing the evolution of the star-forming main sequence (SFMS) at high redshift is crucial to contextualize the observed extreme properties of galaxies in the early Universe…
Introducing the THESAN-ZOOM project: radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of high-redshift galaxies with a multi-phase interstellar medium
Rahul Kannan, Ewald Puchwein, Aaron Smith +11
We introduce the THESAN-ZOOM project, a comprehensive suite of high-resolution zoom-in simulations of high-redshift () galaxies selected from the THESAN simulation volume…
