The Impact of Local Stellar Radiation on Dwarf Galaxy Formation Around Milky Way Analogues Across Cosmic Reionization
Bocheng Zhu, Liang Gao
We explore the effect of local stellar radiation on the formation and evolution of dwarf galaxies around Milky Way (MW) analogues. Using five simulations from the Auriga project, b…
