Ripples in the baryon to dark matter ratio in CDM: implications for galaxy formation
Owen Jessop, Adrian Jenkins, Andrew Pontzen +3
We use the FLAMINGO galaxy formation model to quantify the impact of baryon-CDM isocurvature perturbations on galaxy formation in CDM. In linear theory, these perturbations repr…
The emergence of globular clusters and globular-cluster-like dwarfs
Ethan D. Taylor, Justin I. Read, Matthew D. A. Orkney +7
Globular clusters (GCs) are among the oldest and densest stellar systems in the Universe, yet how they form remains a mystery. Here we present a suite of cosmological simulations i…
The PARADIGM project II: The lifetimes and quenching of satellites in Milky Way-mass haloes
Gandhali D. Joshi, Andrew Pontzen, Oscar Agertz +2
The abundance and star-formation histories of satellites of Milky Way (MW)-like galaxies are linked to their hosts' assembly histories. To explore this connection, we use the PARAD…
Cosmological feedback from a halo assembly perspective
Luisa Lucie-Smith, Hiranya V. Peiris, Andrew Pontzen +6
The impact of feedback from galaxy formation on cosmological probes is typically quantified in terms of the suppression of the matter power spectrum in hydrodynamical compared to g…
Bubbles in a box: Eliminating edge nucleation in cold-atom simulators of vacuum decay
Alexander C. Jenkins, Hiranya V. Peiris, Andrew Pontzen
The decay of metastable 'false vacuum' states via bubble nucleation plays a crucial role in many cosmological scenarios. Cold-atom analog experiments will soon provide the first em…
EDGE: The emergence of dwarf galaxy scaling relations from cosmological radiation-hydrodynamics simulations
Martin P. Rey, Ethan Taylor, Emily I. Gray +14
We present a new suite of EDGE (`Engineering Dwarfs at Galaxy formation's Edge') cosmological zoom simulations. The suite includes 15 radiation-hydrodynamical dwarf galaxies coveri…
