The abundance, distribution, and physical nature of highly ionized oxygen OVI, OVII, and OVIII in IllustrisTNG
Dylan Nelson, Guinevere Kauffmann, Annalisa Pillepich +8
We explore the abundance, spatial distribution, and physical properties of the OVI, OVII, and OVIII ions of oxygen in circumgalactic and intergalactic media (the CGM, IGM, and WHIM…
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…
The evolution of the mass-metallicity relation in IllustrisTNG
Paul Torrey, Mark Vogelsberger, Federico Marinacci +8
The coevolution of galaxies and their metal content serves as an important test for galaxy feedback models. We analyze the distribution and evolution of metals within the Illustris…
Supermassive black holes and their feedback effects in the IllustrisTNG simulation
Rainer Weinberger, Volker Springel, Rüdiger Pakmor +8
We study the population of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their effects on massive central galaxies in the IllustrisTNG cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy form…
A census of cool core galaxy clusters in IllustrisTNG
David J. Barnes, Mark Vogelsberger, Rahul Kannan +10
The thermodynamic structure of hot gas in galaxy clusters is sensitive to astrophysical processes and typically difficult to model with galaxy formation simulations. We explore the…
Black Holes on FIRE: Stellar Feedback Limits Early Feeding of Galactic Nuclei
Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Claude-André Faucher-Giguère, Eliot Quataert +5
We introduce massive black holes (BHs) in the Feedback In Realistic Environments project and perform high-resolution cosmological hydrodynamic simulations of quasar-mass halos ($M_…
