Grackle: a Chemistry and Cooling Library for Astrophysics
Britton D. Smith, Greg L. Bryan, Simon C. O. Glover +11
We present the Grackle chemistry and cooling library for astrophysical simulations and models. Grackle provides a treatment of non-equilibrium primordial chemistry and cooling for…
Dark Sky Simulations: Early Data Release
Samuel W. Skillman, Michael S. Warren, Matthew J. Turk +3
The Dark Sky Simulations are an ongoing series of cosmological N-body simulations designed to provide a quantitative and accessible model of the evolution of the large-scale Univer…
The Birth of a Galaxy - III. Propelling reionisation with the faintest galaxies
John H. Wise, Vasiliy G. Demchenko, Martin T. Halicek +4
Starlight from galaxies plays a pivotal role throughout the process of cosmic reionisation. We present the statistics of dwarf galaxy properties at z > 7 in haloes with masses up t…
Population III Star Formation In Large Cosmological Simulations I. Halo Temporal and Physical Environment
Brian D. Crosby, Brian W. O'Shea, Britton D. Smith +2
We present a semi-analytic, computationally inexpensive model to identify halos capable of forming a Population III star in cosmological simulations across a wide range of times an…
The Birth of a Galaxy. II. The Role of Radiation Pressure
John H. Wise, Tom Abel, Matthew J. Turk +2
Massive stars provide feedback that shapes the interstellar medium of galaxies at all redshifts and their resulting stellar populations. Here we present three adaptive mesh refinem…
Magnetic Fields in Population III Star Formation
Matthew J. Turk, Jeffrey S. Oishi, Tom Abel +1
We study the buildup of magnetic fields during the formation of Population III star-forming regions, by conducting cosmological simulations from realistic initial conditions and va…
