AGN-driven outflows in dwarf galaxies from cosmological simulations: Internal properties and observational signatures

Elena Arjona-Gálvez, Arianna Di Cintio, Robert J. J. Grand +4

While AGN feedback is a key driver of massive galaxy evolution, its physical properties and observational signatures in the dwarf regime remain poorly understood. We investigate th…

The Lifecycle and Emission Properties of PAHs in Cosmological Hydrodynamic Galaxy Formation Simulations

Desika Narayanan, Paul Torrey, Massimiliano Parente +16

We present the first cosmological model for the lifecycle and luminous properties of PAHs in galaxies as they evolve from z=6-->0. We model 40 zoom-in galaxies, coupled with an on-…

The Entangling of Supernova Feedback Impacts with Coarsening Simulation Resolution

Eric Zhang, Laura V. Sales, Thales A. Gutcke +11

It is often understood that supernova (SN) feedback in galaxies is responsible for regulating star formation (SF) and generating gaseous outflows. However, a detailed look at the s…

Tracing the Origins of Hot Halo Gas in Milky Way-Type Galaxies with SMUGGLE

Zhijie Zhang, Xiaoxia Zhang, Hui Li +8

Current galaxy formation models predict the existence of X-ray-emitting gaseous halos around Milky Way (MW)-type galaxies. To investigate properties of this coronal gas in MW-like…

The Growth of Dust in Galaxies in the First Billion Years with Applications to Blue Monsters

Desika Narayanan, Paul Torrey, Daniel Stark +9

A combination of JWST observations at z~12-14 and ALMA observations of extremely dust-rich systems at z~6 has demonstrated that dust grows extremely fast in the early Universe, wit…

Understanding the Baryon Cycle: Fueling Star Formation via Inflows in Milky Way-like Galaxies

Filippo Barbani, Raffaele Pascale, Federico Marinacci +4

Galaxies are not isolated systems; they continuously interact with their surroundings by ejecting gas via stellar feedback and accreting gas from the environment. Understanding the…

Bursty Star Formation in Dwarfs is Sensitive to Numerical Choices in Supernova Feedback Models

Eric Zhang, Laura V. Sales, Federico Marinacci +6

Simulations of galaxy formation are mostly unable to resolve the energy-conserving phase of individual supernova events, having to resort to subgrid models to distribute the energy…

Evolution and distribution of superbubbles in simulated Milky Way-like galaxies

Chengzhe Li, Hui Li, Wei Cui +4

Stellar feedback plays a crucial role in regulating baryon cycles of a galactic ecosystem, and may manifest itself in the formation of superbubbles in the interstellar medium. In t…
