Comparing Implementations of Self-Interacting Dark Matter in the Gizmo and Arepo Codes
Helen Meskhidze, Francisco J. Mercado, Omid Sameie +4
Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) models have received great attention over the past decade as solutions to the small-scale puzzles of astrophysics. Though there are different im…
Galaxies lacking dark matter produced by close encounters in a cosmological simulation
Jorge Moreno, Shany Danieli, James S. Bullock +18
The standard cold dark matter plus cosmological constant model predicts that galaxies form within dark-matter haloes, and that low-mass galaxies are more dark-matter dominated than…
A Relationship Between Stellar Metallicity Gradients and Galaxy Age in Dwarf Galaxies
Francisco J. Mercado, James S. Bullock, Michael Boylan-Kolchin +7
We explore the origin of stellar metallicity gradients in simulated and observed dwarf galaxies. We use FIRE-2 cosmological baryonic zoom-in simulations of 26 isolated galaxies as…
The time-scales probed by star formation rate indicators for realistic, bursty star formation histories from the FIRE simulations
José A. Flores Velázquez, Alexander B. Gurvich, Claude-André Faucher-Giguère +10
Understanding the rate at which stars form is central to studies of galaxy formation. Observationally, the star formation rates (SFRs) of galaxies are measured using the luminosity…
