Connection between galaxy morphology and dark-matter halo structure II: predicting disk structure from dark-matter halo properties
Jinning Liang, Fangzhou Jiang, Houjun Mo +4
We investigate how galactic disk structures connect to the detailed properties of their host dark-matter halos using the TNG50 simulation. From the hydrodynamic and matched dark-ma…
A systematic study of AGN feedback in a disk galaxy I: global overview
Yuxuan Zou, Feng Yuan, Suoqing Ji +5
This is the first paper in a series using our MACER framework to investigate the evolution of a disk galaxy, which emphasizes the role of active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback and…
Mid-infrared Variability-based AGN Selection using the Multi-epoch Photometric Data from WISE
Shinyu Kim, Minjin Kim, Suyeon Son +1
We assess the systematics and efficiency of an AGN selection method based on mid-infrared (MIR) variability. To this end, we utilize various types of active and inactive galaxies f…
Disturbed cold gas in galaxy and structure formation
Siwei Zou, Robert A. Simcoe, Patrick Petitjean +18
Cold and cool gas (T K) in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) and its interaction with galaxies remain poorly understood. Simulations predict that cold gas flows into gala…
Consistent Modeling of Non-equilibrium Dust Sublimation and the Interactions with Dust Evolution in the Inner Regions of Protoplanetary Disks
Sheng Xu, Lile Wang, Luis C. Ho +2
The inner regions of protoplanetary disks are host to the sublimation of dust grains, a process traditionally modeled using equilibrium thermodynamics. We demonstrate through ab-in…
Open Cluster Dynamics under the Influence of Outflow-Ambient Interactions
Muxin Liu, Lile Wang, Xiaoting Fu +1
Stars with outflows impinging on ambient gas experience accelerations due to the gravitational feedback from the interaction morphology between the outflow and the ambient gas. Suc…
