A simple way to improve AGN feedback prescription in SPH simulations
Kastytis Zubovas, Martin A. Bourne, Sergei Nayakshin
AGN feedback is an important ingredient in galaxy evolution, however its treatment in numerical simulations is necessarily approximate, requiring subgrid prescriptions due to the d…
The resolution bias: low resolution feedback simulations are better at destroying galaxies
Martin A. Bourne, Kastytis Zubovas, Sergei Nayakshin
Feedback from super-massive black holes (SMBHs) is thought to play a key role in regulating the growth of host galaxies. Cosmological and galaxy formation simulations using smoothe…
AGN activity and nuclear starbursts: Sgr A* activity shapes the Central Molecular Zone
Kastytis Zubovas
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way shows several peculiar properties: a large star formation rate, some of the most massive young star clusters and molecular clouds…
