An emerging baryon cycle in a galaxy 500 million years after the Big Bang

Shengzhe Wang, Xin Wang, Hang Zhou +17

The emergence of stellar feedback as a regulator of galaxy growth marks a fundamental transition in cosmic history. At early times, rapid gas accretion and collapse may induce inte…

MSA-3D: Connecting the Chemical and Kinematic Structures of Galaxies at

Mengting Ju, Xin Wang, Tucker Jones +12

We investigate the connection between ionized gas kinematics and gas-phase metallicity gradients in 21 star-forming galaxies at from the MSA-3D survey, using spatia…

Galaxy Metallicity Gradients in the Reionization Epoch from the FIRE-2 Simulations

Xunda Sun, Xin Wang, Fangzhou Jiang +10

We employ the high-redshift suite of FIRE-2 cosmological hydrodynamic zoom-in simulations to investigate the evolution of gas-phase metallicity radial gradients in galaxies in the…

The physical origin of positive metallicity radial gradients in high-redshift galaxies: insights from the FIRE-2 cosmological hydrodynamic simulations

Xunda Sun, Xin Wang, Xiangcheng Ma +11

Using the FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations, we investigate the temporal evolution of gas-phase metallicity radial gradients of Milky Way-mass progenitors in the redshift ran…

MSA-3D: Metallicity Gradients in Galaxies at with JWST/NIRSpec Slit-stepping Spectroscopy

Mengting Ju, Xin Wang, Tucker Jones +14

The radial gradient of gas-phase metallicity is a powerful probe of the chemical and structural evolution of star-forming galaxies, closely tied to disk formation and gas kinematic…
