How to quench a galaxy
Andrew Pontzen, Michael Tremmel, Nina Roth +5
We show how the interplay between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and merger history determines whether a galaxy quenches star formation at high redshift. We first simulate, in a full…
MaGICC-WDM: the effects of warm dark matter in hydrodynamical simulations of disc galaxy formation
Jakob Herpich, Gregory S. Stinson, Andrea V. Macciò +4
We study the effect of warm dark matter (WDM) on hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy formation as part of the Making Galaxies in a Cosmological Context (MaGICC) project. We simulate…
The Distribution of Metals in Cosmological Hydrodynamical Simulations of Dwarf Disk Galaxies
K. Pilkington, B. K. Gibson, C. B. Brook +9
We examine the chemical properties of 5 cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of an M33-like disc galaxy which have been shown to be consistent with the morphological characteris…
Ensemble Properties of Comets in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Michael Solontoi, Zeljko Ivezic, Mario Juric +10
We present the ensemble properties of 31 comets (27 resolved and 4 unresolved) observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). This sample of comets represents about 1 comet per 1…
MaGICC Disks: Matching Observed Galaxy Relationships Over a Wide Stellar Mass Range
C. B. Brook, G. Stinson, B. K. Gibson +2
We use the same physical model to simulate four galaxies that match the relation between stellar and total mass, over a mass range that includes the vast majority of disc galaxies.…
Evolution of Coated Grains in Spiral Shocks of Self-Gravitating Protoplanetary Disks
M. Podolak, L. Mayer, T. Quinn
We investigate the evolution of grains composed of an ice shell surrounding an olivine core as they pass through a spiral shock in a protoplanetary disk. We use published three-dim…
Interpreting the Evolution of the Size - Luminosity Relation for Disk Galaxies from Redshift 1 to the Present
Alyson Brooks, Adam Solomon, Fabio Governato +6
A sample of very high resolution cosmological disk galaxy simulations is used to investigate the evolution of galaxy disk sizes back to redshift 1 within the Lambda CDM cosmology.…
Stability of Terrestrial Planets in the Habitable Zone of Gl 777 A, HD 72659, Gl 614, 47 Uma and HD 4208
N. Asghari, C. Broeg, L. Carone +37
We have undertaken a thorough dynamical investigation of five extrasolar planetary systems using extensive numerical experiments. The systems Gl 777 A, HD 72659, Gl 614, 47 Uma and…
Direct N-body Simulations of Rubble Pile Collisions
Z. M. Leinhardt, D. C. Richardson, T. Quinn
There is increasing evidence that many km-sized bodies in the Solar System are piles of rubble bound together by gravity. We present results from a project to map the parameter spa…
