The Simulated Oxygen Shortage (SOS): Mapping the Missing OVI in Simulated Dwarf Galaxies to Subgrid Physics
Daniel R. Piacitelli, Alyson M. Brooks, N. Nicole Sanchez +9
Observations reveal extended \OVI\, reservoirs in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of dwarf galaxies, yet current simulations systematically underpredict \OVI\, column densities. Ut…
Marvelous Metals: Surveying the Circumgalactic Medium of Simulated Dwarf Galaxies
Daniel R. Piacitelli, Alyson M. Brooks, Charlotte Christensen +7
Dwarf galaxies are uniquely sensitive to energetic feedback processes and are known to experience substantial mass and metal loss from their disk. Here, we investigate the circumga…
Survivors and Zombies: The Quenching and Disruption of Satellites around Milky Way Analogs
Debosmita Pathak, Charlotte R. Christensen, Alyson M. Brooks +3
It is necessary to understand the full accretion history of the Milky Way in order to contextualize the properties of observed Milky Way satellite galaxies and the stellar halo. Th…
Testable predictions of outside-in age gradients in dwarf galaxies of all types
Claire L. Riggs, Alyson M. Brooks, Ferah Munshi +4
We use a sample of 73 simulated satellite and central dwarf galaxies spanning a stellar mass range of to investigate the origin of their stellar age gra…
