The effects of different cooling and heating function models on a simulated analog of NGC300
David Robinson, Camille Avestruz, Nickolay Y. Gnedin +1
Gas cooling and heating rates are vital components of hydrodynamic simulations. However, they are computationally expensive to evaluate exactly with chemical networks or photoioniz…

On the minimum number of radiation field parameters to specify gas cooling and heating functions
David Robinson, Camille Avestruz, Nickolay Y. Gnedin
Fast and accurate approximations of gas cooling and heating functions are needed for hydrodynamic galaxy simulations. We use machine learning to analyze atomic gas cooling and heat…
