MEGATRON: The environments of Population III stars at Cosmic Dawn and their connection to present day galaxies
Anatole Storck, Harley Katz, Julien Devriendt +7
We present results of Pop. III formation in the MEGATRON suite of simulations, which self-consistently follows radiation and non-equilibrium chemistry, and resolves gas at near-pc…
CALIMA: On-the-fly dust and PAH evolution for radiation-hydrodynamics galaxy formation simulations
Francisco RodrÃguez Montero, Yohan Dubois, Harley Katz +2
Dust grains and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) actively contribute to the thermodynamics, chemistry, and radiative state of the interstellar medium (ISM), yet most ISM mod…
MEGATRON: Disentangling Physical Processes and Observational Bias in the Multi-Phase ISM of High-Redshift Galaxies
Nicholas Choustikov, Harley Katz, Alex J. Cameron +10
Now detected out to redshifts of , the rest-frame ultraviolet and optical spectra of galaxies encode numerous physical properties of the interstellar medium (ISM). Accu…
The Velocity Field Olympics: Assessing velocity field reconstructions with direct distance tracers
Richard Stiskalek, Harry Desmond, Julien Devriendt +5
The peculiar velocity field of the local Universe provides direct insights into its matter distribution and the underlying theory of gravity, and is essential in cosmological analy…
MEGATRON: the impact of non-equilibrium effects and local radiation fields on the circumgalactic medium at cosmic noon
Corentin Cadiou, Harley Katz, Martin P. Rey +22
We present three cosmological radiation-hydrodynamic zoom simulations of the progenitor of a Milky Way-mass galaxy from the MEGATRON suite. The simulations combine on-the-fly radia…
MEGATRON: how the first stars create an iron metallicity plateau in the smallest dwarf galaxies
Martin P. Rey, Harley Katz, Corentin Cadiou +23
We study the stellar mass-iron metallicity relation of dwarf galaxies in the new high-resolution MEGATRON cosmological radiation-hydrodynamics simulations. These simulations model…
