The Impact of Enhanced Halo Resolution on the Simulated Circumgalactic Medium

Cameron B. Hummels, Britton D. Smith, Philip F. Hopkins +7

Traditional cosmological hydrodynamics simulations fail to spatially resolve the circumgalatic medium (CGM), the reservoir of tenuous gas surrounding a galaxy and extending to its…

The Origins of the Circumgalactic Medium in the FIRE Simulations

Z. Hafen, C. -A. Faucher-Giguere, D. Angles-Alcazar +10

We use a particle tracking analysis to study the origins of the circumgalactic medium (CGM), separating it into (1) accretion from the intergalactic medium (IGM), (2) wind from the…

Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). I. Resolving Simulated Circumgalactic Absorption at 2 < z < 2.5

Molly S. Peeples, Lauren Corlies, Jason Tumlinson +7

We present simulations from the new "Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo" (FOGGIE) project. In contrast to most extant simulations of galaxy formation, which concentrate computatio…

A VLT/MUSE galaxy survey towards QSO Q1410: looking for a WHIM traced by BLAs in inter-cluster filaments

Ismael Pessa, Nicolas Tejos, L. Felipe Barrientos +7

Cosmological simulations predict that a significant fraction of the low- baryon budget resides in large-scale filaments in the form of a diffuse plasma at temperatures $T \sim 1…

xGASS: Total cold gas scaling relations and molecular-to-atomic gas ratios of galaxies in the local Universe

Barbara Catinella, Amélie Saintonge, Steven Janowiecki +10

We present the extended GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey (xGASS), a gas fraction-limited census of the atomic (HI) gas content of 1179 galaxies selected only by stellar mass ($M_\star =10…
