From giant clumps to clouds -- III. The connection between star formation and turbulence in the ISM
Timmy Ejdetjärn, Oscar Agertz, Göran Östlin +2
Supersonic gas turbulence is a ubiquitous property of the interstellar medium. The level of turbulence, quantified by the gas velocity dispersion (), is observed to incr…
From giant clumps to clouds -- II. The emergence of thick disc kinematics from the conditions of star formation in high redshift gas rich galaxies
Floor van Donkelaar, Oscar Agertz, Florent Renaud
High redshift disc galaxies are more gas rich, clumpier, and more turbulent than local Universe galaxies. This early era of galaxy formation imprints the distribution and kinematic…
EDGE: The sensitivity of ultra-faint dwarfs to a metallicity-dependent initial mass function
Mateo Prgomet, Martin P. Rey, Eric P. Andersson +5
Motivated by the observed bottom-light initial mass function (IMF) in faint dwarfs, we study how a metallicity-dependent IMF affects the feedback budget and observables of an ultra…
NOEMA Observations of CO Emission in Arp 142 and Arp 238
Cong K. Xu, Ute Lisenfeld, Yu Gao +1
Previous studies have shown significant differences in the enhancement of the star-formation rate (SFR) and the star-formation efficiency (SFE=SFR/M_mol) between spiral-spiral and…
From giant clumps to clouds I: the impact of gas fraction evolution on the stability of galactic discs
Florent Renaud, Alessandro B. Romeo, Oscar Agertz
The morphology of gas-rich disc galaxies at redshift ~1-3 is dominated by a few massive clumps. The process of formation or assembly of these clumps and their relation to molecular…
