On the relative importance of different microphysics on the D-type expansion of galactic HII regions
Thomas J. Haworth, Tim J. Harries, David M. Acreman +1
Radiation hydrodynamics (RHD) simulations are used to study many astrophysical phenomena, however they require the use of simplified radiation transport and thermal prescriptions t…
The morphology of the Milky Way - II. Reconstructing CO maps from disc galaxies with live stellar distributions
Alex R. Pettitt, Clare L. Dobbs, David M. Acreman +1
The arm structure of the Milky Way remains somewhat of an unknown, with observational studies hindered by our location within the Galactic disc. In the work presented here we use s…
The morphology of the Milky Way - I. Reconstructing CO maps from simulations in fixed potentials
Alex R. Pettitt, Clare L. Dobbs, David M. Acreman +1
We present an investigation into the morphological features of the Milky Way. We use smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to simulate the interstellar medium (ISM) in the Milky Wa…
Using synthetic emission maps to constrain the structure of the Milky Way
Alex Pettitt, Clare Dobbs, David Acreman +1
We present the current standing of an investigation into the structure of the Milky Way. We use smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to simulate the ISM gas in the Milky Way under…
Assessing molecular line diagnostics of triggered star formation using synthetic observations
Thomas J. Haworth, Tim J. Harries, David M. Acreman +1
We investigate observational signatures of triggered star formation in bright rimmed clouds (BRCs) by using molecular line transfer calculations based on radiation-hydrodynamic rad…
The structure of HI in galactic disks: Simulations vs observations
David M. Acreman, Clare L. Dobbs, Christopher M. Brunt +1
We generate synthetic HI Galactic plane surveys from spiral galaxy simulations which include stellar feedback processes. Compared to a model without feedback we find an increased s…
