Stellar orbits and the survival of metallicity gradients in simulated dwarf galaxies
Joeri Schroyen, Sven De Rijcke, Mina Koleva +2
We present a detailed analysis of the formation, evolution, and possible longevity of metallicity gradients in simulated dwarf galaxies. Specifically, we investigate the role of po…
New composition dependent cooling and heating curves for galaxy evolution simulations
Sven De Rijcke, Joeri Schroyen, Bert Vandenbroucke +4
In this paper, we present a new calculation of composition-dependent radiative cooling and heating curves of low-density gas, intended primarily for use in numerical simulations of…
Physics of a partially ionized gas relevant to galaxy formation simulations -- the ionization potential energy reservoir
Bert Vandenbroucke, Sven De Rijcke, Joeri Schroyen +1
Simulation codes for galaxy formation and evolution take on board as many physical processes as possible beyond the standard gravitational and hydrodynamical physics. Most of this…
