The All-Sky Impact of the LMC on the Milky Way Circumgalactic Medium
Christopher Carr, Greg L. Bryan, Nicolás Garavito-Camargo +3
The first infall of the LMC into the Milky Way (MW) represents a large and recent disruption to the MW circumgalactic medium (CGM). In this work, we use idealized, hydrodynamical s…
Equilibrium States of Galactic Atmospheres II: Interpretation and Implications
G. M. Voit, C. Carr, D. B. Fielding +5
The scaling of galaxy properties with halo mass suggests that feedback loops regulate star formation, but there is no consensus yet about how those feedback loops work. To help cla…
Zooming by in the CARPoolGP lane: new CAMELS-TNG simulations of zoomed-in massive halos
Max E. Lee, Shy Genel, Benjamin D. Wandelt +10
Galaxy formation models within cosmological hydrodynamical simulations contain numerous parameters with non-trivial influences over the resulting properties of simulated cosmic str…
Turning Points in the Age-Metallicity Relations -- Created by Late Satellite Infall and Enhanced by Radial Migration
Yuxi Lu, Melissa K. Ness, Tobias Buck +1
The present-day Age-Metallicity Relation (AMR) is a record of the star formation history of the Galaxy, as this traces the chemical enrichment of the gas over time. We use a zoomed…
