JetStream: Generating Verified Query Accelerators for Existing Database Systems
Akhilesh Balasingam, Amadou Ngom, Geoffrey X. Yu +1
Recent work has shown that LLMs can synthesize highly specialized database systems for fixed workloads, but these systems replace the DBMS's native storage and assume static data:…
Fountain pattern of baryon cycle revealed in galaxy ecosystems
Chengyu Ma, Yangyao Chen, Enci Wang +11
Baryons in galaxy ecosystems are believed to undergo continuous cycles of inflow and outflow, forming fountain-like patterns that encode key information about how galaxies acquire…
Forged in Quenching: Morphological Transformation across Star-forming and Quiescent Galaxies in EAGLE
Kai Wang, Carlton Baugh, Sownak Bose +15
The connection between morphology and quenching in central galaxies is well established, but its physical origin remains widely debated. We address this by tracing the main progeni…
Evidence for the transformation from lenticular to spiral galaxies
Mengkui Zhou, Huiyuan Wang, Ran Li +8
It is widely accepted that late-type galaxies, such as spirals, evolve into early-type systems, including elliptical and lenticular galaxies, through galaxy mergers and violent dis…
Theoretical emission lines and metallicity calibrations of H II regions in ASTRID simulation
Yao Yao, Kathryn Grasha, Stuart Wyithe +5
We present a theoretical framework to derive redshift-dependent metallicity calibrations for galaxies at =2-7. The ionization parameter () and gas pressure () in our appro…
Inflow-driven galaxy evolution - I. Revealing the physics of the fundamental metallicity relation
Kai Wang, Carlton Baugh, N. F. Boardman +11
We present a unified physical framework for the fundamental metallicity relation (FMR), based on the mass-continuity equations. The FMR is not merely the anti-correlation between s…
Observational Evidence for Anisotropic Metal Excess around Galaxies
Cheqiu Lyu, Enci Wang, Zeyu Chen +4
The exchange of matter and energy between galaxies and their surroundings drives the cosmic baryon cycle, yet mapping metal transport remains an observational challenge. While simu…
Star formation powers optical line emission from the CGM
Huanian Zhang, Lizhi Xie, Zhijie Qu +9
Using integral field spectroscopy, we explore the disk-halo interface, or the inner circumgalactic medium (CGM), of individual galaxies by constructing and analyzing emission-line…
Environmental Imprints on the Assembly of the Cool Gas around Bright Cluster Galaxies
Runyu Zhu, Hu Zou, Taotao Fang +14
Galaxy clusters represent extreme cosmic laboratories where environmental processes dramatically reshape their constituent galaxies, yet their effect on the gaseous halos of centra…
Warped Disk Galaxies: Alignment with the Large-Scale Tidal Field
Yiheng Wang, Huiyuan Wang, Enci Wang +1
A possible origin of disk galaxy warps is the misalignment between galactic disks and their host dark matter halos, the orientations of which are found to be statistically aligned…
Cooler Phases of the Circumgalactic Medium Are More Centrally Concentrated: Constraints from Multiphase Absorption Lines
Weiwen Kong, Zeyu Chen, Enci Wang +7
We present a systematic study of the multiphase circumgalactic medium (CGM) around galaxies and quasars, traced by Ca II , Mg II , and C IV $λ…
A Universal Dance of Galactic Disks: Ubiquitous Precession and Its Implications
Yuan Wang, Xiong Luo, Huiyuan Wang +5
Precession is a very common phenomenon for small-scale astronomical objects. However, the precession of galactic disks, occurring on a scale larger than kilo-parsec, has barely bee…
The Galaxy Stellar Mass-SFR-Size Relation in EAGLE, TNG100, and Observations
Jiani Chu, Dandan Xu, Enci Wang +1
Stellar mass, size, and star formation rate (SFR) are fundamental properties that encode the structural and evolutionary states of galaxies. Observations reveal a mass-SFR-size rel…
Revisiting the Origin of the Star-Forming Main Sequence Based on a Volume-Limited Sample of ~25,000 Galaxies
Yang Gao, Shujiao Liang, Qinghua Tan +10
We revisit the extensively debated star-forming main sequence (SFMS)-a tight correlation between the star formation rate and stellar mass in both kiloparsec-resolved and integrated…
The First Systematic Survey of Stellar Halos in High-Inclination Galaxies Reveals Unusually Quiescent Merger Histories of Nearby Galaxies
Bojun Tao, Hong-Xin Zhang, Wenting Wang +8
Stellar halos are the only major stellar component of disk galaxies that lack systematic observational characterization, yet they encode critical information about galaxy merger hi…
Updated Metallicity Diagnostics for Precision Oxygen Abundance Measurements in High-redshift Galaxies with JWST
Shihong Liu, Yu Rong, Tie Li +7
Recent work has demonstrated that widely used strong-line oxygen abundance indicators, such as O3N2, , and , suffer from large uncertainties when applied…
First Statistical Detection of MgII-traced Cool Gas Outflows with JWST Towards Cosmic Dawn
Cheqiu Lyu, Haoran Yu, Enci Wang +9
Galactic-scale outflows are a crucial component of galaxy evolution, yet their properties in the early universe remain poorly constrained. We present the first statistical investig…
Stellar feedback drives the baryon deficiency in low-mass galaxies
Haoran Yu, Enci Wang, Zeyu Chen +8
Stellar feedback, as a key process regulating the baryon cycle, is thought to greatly redistribute baryonic material inside and outside the dark matter halos (DMHs), however the ob…
Transition from Outside-in to Inside-Out at : Evidence from Radial Profiles of Specific Star Formation Rate based on JWST/HST
Jie Song, Enci Wang, Cheng Jia +7
By combining high-resolution observations from JWST and HST, we have measured the stellar masses, star formation rates (SFRs), and multi-wavelength morphologies of galaxies in the…
Episodic Star Formation -- I. Overview and Scatter of the Star-Forming Main Sequence
Yuqian Gui, Dandan Xu, Haoyi Wang +4
Episodic star formation cycles in both high- and low-redshift galaxies have gained more and more evidence. This paper aims to understand the detailed physical processes behind such…
Warped Disk Galaxies: Statistical Properties from DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys DR8
Yiheng Wang, Han Qu, Jiafeng Lu +3

Radio AGN feedback sustains quiescence only in a minority of massive galaxies
Huiling Liu, Yan Lu, Hui Hong +11
Radio active galactic nuclei (AGNs) eject a huge amount of energy into the surrounding medium and are thought to potentially prevent gas cooling and maintain the quiescence of mass…
Dissecting the mass quenching in TNG50: Galaxy size determines the quenching mode
Haochen Jiang, Enci Wang, Kai Wang +2
The diminishing of star formation is accompanied by size differentiating, as quiescent galaxies are more compact than star-forming galaxies at fixed stellar mass. In order to under…
