Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). XV. Examining the Spatial and Kinematic Relationship between Circumgalactic Mg II and O VI
Mackenzie Ticoras, Brian W. O'Shea, Claire Kopenhafer +9
Understanding the thermodynamic properties of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is key to uncovering the baryon cycle in galaxies. Here we present spatial and kinematic relationships…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). XIV. The Observability of Emission from Accretion and Feedback in the Circumgalactic Medium with Current and Future Instruments
Vida Saeedzadeh, Jason Tumlinson, Molly S. Peeples +11
Observing the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in emission lines from ionized gas enables direct mapping of its spatial and kinematic structure, offering new insight into the gas flows…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). XIII. On the Observability of Extended HI Disks and Warps
Cameron W. Trapp, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +6
Atomic Hydrogen (HI) is a useful tracer of gas in and around galaxies, and can be found in extended disk-like structures well beyond a system's optical extent. Here, we investigate…
FOGGIE: Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo XII. The Formation and Evolution of Extended HI Galactic Disks and Warps with a Dynamic Circumgalactic medium
Cameron W. Trapp, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +8
Atomic hydrogen (HI) is an important component of gas in and around galaxies and forms extended disk-like structures well beyond the extent of starlight. Here we investigate the pr…
Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE) XI: Circumgalactic O VI Emission Traces Clumpy Inflowing Recycled Gas
Cassandra Lochhaas, Molly S. Peeples, Brian W. O'Shea +11
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is host to gas flows into and out of galaxies and regulates galaxy growth, but the multiphase, diffuse gas in this region is challenging to observe.…
Angular momentum transfer in cosmological simulations of Milky Way-mass discs
Cameron W. Trapp, Dušan Kereš, Philip F. Hopkins +2
Fueling star formation in large, discy galaxies requires a continuous supply of gas accreting into star-forming regions. Previously, we characterized this accretion in 4 Milky Way…
