Surface Manifestation of Stochastically Excited Internal Gravity Waves
Daniel Lecoanet, Matteo Cantiello, Evan H. Anders +5
Recent photometric observations of massive stars show ubiquitous low-frequency "red-noise" variability, which has been interpreted as internal gravity waves (IGWs). Simulations of…
LAMOST J0140355+392651: An evolved cataclysmic variable donor transitioning to become an extremely low mass white dwarf
Kareem El-Badry, Eliot Quataert, Hans-Walter Rix +6
We present LAMOST J0140355+392651 (hereafter J0140), a close ( hours) binary containing a bloated, low-mass () proto-white dwarf (WD)…
Neutral CGM as damped Lyα absorbers at high redshift
Jonathan Stern, Amiel Sternberg, Claude-André Faucher-Giguère +8
Recent searches for the hosts of high-redshift () damped Ly absorbers (DLAs) have detected bright galaxies at distances of tens of kpc from the DLA. Using the FIRE-2 c…
Novae heat their food: mass transfer by irradiation
Sivan Ginzburg, Eliot Quataert
A nova eruption irradiates and heats the donor star in a cataclysmic variable to high temperatures , causing its outer layers to expand and overflow the Roche lobe. We…
The bursty origin of the Milky Way thick disc
Sijie Yu, James S. Bullock, Courtney Klein +11
We investigate thin and thick stellar disc formation in Milky-Way-mass galaxies using twelve FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations. All simulated galaxies experience an early per…
Characterizing mass, momentum, energy and metal outflow rates of multi-phase galactic winds in the FIRE-2 cosmological simulations
Viraj Pandya, Drummond B. Fielding, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar +14
We characterize mass, momentum, energy and metal outflow rates of multi-phase galactic winds in a suite of FIRE-2 cosmological "zoom-in" simulations from the Feedback in Realistic…
