SMUGGLE-Ring: Evolutionary link between nuclear star cluster and nuclear disk
SungWon Kwak, Mathias Schultheis, Ivan Minchev +8
We present a high-resolution hydrodynamical simulation of the formation and evolution of nuclear structures in a Milky Way-mass galaxy using the SMUGGLE model. The system naturally…
The SMUGGLE-Ring project: Bar and bulge effects on nuclear disk and ring formation
SungWon Kwak, Federico Marinacci, Matthias Steinmetz +8
We present the first results from the SMUGGLE-Ring project, a suite of simulations employing the SMUGGLE ISM and stellar feedback model to explore nuclear structures in Milky Way-m…
Effects of resolution and local stability on galactic disks: Halo resolution and softening on bar formation
SungWon Kwak, Ivan Minchev, Matthias Steinmetz +1
Using N-body simulations, we examine the impact of dark matter (DM) halo resolution and gravitational softening on bar formation. We generate isolated disk-halo systems with fixed…
