RIGEL: Ultra-faint dwarf galaxy diversity shaped by inhomogeneous cosmic reionization
Yunwei Deng, Hui Li, Ewald Puchwein +7
Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) are among the smallest and oldest galaxies in the Universe and are widely regarded as relics of cosmic reionization. To investigate how reionizati…
Probing the Hot Gaseous Halos of Milky Way-like Galaxies in the TNG50 simulation
Zhijie Zhang, Xiaoxia Zhang, Taotao Fang +9
The origin and structure of the hot (K) gaseous halo around Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxies provide a critical test for galaxy formation models. We perform a comprehensi…
Identifying signatures of inflow onto face-on galaxies using the Balmer decrement
Meghna Sitaram, Hui Li, Yong Zheng +4
Isolated star-forming galaxies require inflows of fresh gas from the surrounding medium to sustain episodes of star formation over time. However, there are very few direct detectio…
The All-Sky Impact of the LMC on the Milky Way Circumgalactic Medium
Christopher Carr, Greg L. Bryan, Nicolás Garavito-Camargo +3
The first infall of the LMC into the Milky Way (MW) represents a large and recent disruption to the MW circumgalactic medium (CGM). In this work, we use idealized, hydrodynamical s…
