Dependence of Interstellar Turbulent Pressure on Supernova Rate
M. Ryan Joung, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Greg L. Bryan
Feedback from massive stars is one of the least understood aspects of galaxy formation. We perform a suite of vertically stratified local interstellar medium (ISM) simulations in w…
Geometrically Derived Timescales for Star Formation in Spiral Galaxies
D. Tamburro, H. -W. Rix, F. Walter +4
We estimate a characteristic timescale for star formation in the spiral arms of disk galaxies, going from atomic hydrogen (HI) to dust-enshrouded massive stars. Drawing on high-res…
The Origin and Kinematics of Cold Gas in Galactic Winds: Insight from Numerical Simulations
Akimi Fujita, Crystal L. Martin, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +2
We study the origin of Na I absorbing gas in ultraluminous infrared galaxies motivated by the recent observations by Martin of extremely superthermal linewidths in this cool gas. W…
A constrained-transport magnetohydrodynamics algorithm with near-spectral resolution
Jason Maron, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Jeffrey Oishi
Numerical simulations including magnetic fields have become important in many fields of astrophysics. Evolution of magnetic fields by the constrained transport algorithm preserves…
