Simulating dust grain-radiation coupling on a moving mesh
Ryan McKinnon, Rahul Kannan, Mark Vogelsberger +3
We present a model for the interaction between dust and radiation fields in the radiation hydrodynamic code AREPO-RT, which solves the moment-based radiative transfer equations on…
Dust in and around galaxies: dust in cluster environments and its impact on gas cooling
Mark Vogelsberger, Ryan McKinnon, Stephanie O'Neil +3
Simulating the dust content of galaxies and their surrounding gas is challenging due to the wide range of physical processes affecting the dust evolution. Here we present cosmologi…
Simulating galactic dust grain evolution on a moving mesh
Ryan McKinnon, Mark Vogelsberger, Paul Torrey +2
Interstellar dust is an important component of the galactic ecosystem, playing a key role in multiple galaxy formation processes. We present a novel numerical framework for the dyn…
Similar star formation rate and metallicity evolution timescales drive the fundamental metallicity relation
Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger, Lars Hernquist +10
The fundamental metallicity relation (FMR) is a postulated correlation between galaxy stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR), and gas-phase metallicity. At its core, this relation…
Simulating the dust content of galaxies: successes and failures
Ryan McKinnon, Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger +2
We present full volume cosmological simulations using the moving-mesh code AREPO to study the coevolution of dust and galaxies. We extend the dust model in AREPO to include thermal…
An analysis of the evolving comoving number density of galaxies in hydrodynamical simulations
Paul Torrey, Sarah Wellons, Francisco Machado +9
The cumulative comoving number-density of galaxies as a function of stellar mass or central velocity dispersion is commonly used to link galaxy populations across different epochs.…
Dust Formation in Milky Way-like Galaxies
Ryan McKinnon, Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger
We introduce a dust model for cosmological simulations implemented in the moving-mesh code AREPO and present a suite of cosmological hydrodynamical zoom-in simulations to study dus…
