The Impact of Simulation Resolution on Dwarf Galaxy Stellar Stream Populations in FIRE
Yasmine J. Meziani, Nondh Panithanpaisal, Robyn E. Sanderson +4
Cosmological simulations allow us to study galaxy-progenitor stream populations, allowing comparisons with observations to constrain galaxy formation physics. Previous work found t…
Igniting galaxy formation in the post-reionization universe
Jorge Moreno, Coral Wheeler, Francisco J. Mercado +9
It is widely believed that the ultraviolet background produced during the epoch of reionization conspires against the formation of low-mass galaxies. Indeed, this mechanism is ofte…
Rise of the forsaken relics: connecting present-day stellar streams and phase-mixed galaxies to the Epoch of Reionization
Aritra Kundu, Robyn Sanderson, Adam Lidz +6
The `near-far' approach to studying reionization leverages the star formation histories of the Milky Way (MW) or Local Group (LG) galaxies, derived from resolved photometry, to inf…
Galaxy Metallicity Gradients in the Reionization Epoch from the FIRE-2 Simulations
Xunda Sun, Xin Wang, Fangzhou Jiang +10
We employ the high-redshift suite of FIRE-2 cosmological hydrodynamic zoom-in simulations to investigate the evolution of gas-phase metallicity radial gradients in galaxies in the…
Disks no more: the morphology of low-mass simulated galaxies in FIREbox
José A. Benavides, Laura V. Sales, Andrew Wetzel +9
We study the morphology of hundreds of simulated central galaxies in the stellar mass range \msun\, from the FIREbox cosmological volume. We demons…
The Effect of Galaxy Interactions on Starbursts in Milky Way-Mass Galaxies in FIRE Simulations
Fei Li, Mubdi Rahman, Norman Murray +5
Simulations and observations suggest that galaxy interactions may enhance the star formation rate (SFR) in merging galaxies. One proposed mechanism is the torque exerted on the gas…
