The Soft, Fluctuating UVB at as Traced by C IV, SiIV, and CII
K. Finlator, B. D. Oppenheimer, R. Davé +3
The sources that drove cosmological reionization left clues regarding their identity in the slope and inhomogeneity of the ultraviolet ionizing background (UVB): Bright quasars (QS…
The rise and fall of a challenger: the Bullet Cluster in Cold Dark Matter simulations
Robert Thompson, Romeel Davé, Kentaro Nagamine
The Bullet Cluster has provided some of the best evidence for the cold dark matter () model via direct empirical proof of the existence of collisionless dark matter,…
Tracing Inflows and Outflows with Absorption Lines in Circumgalactic Gas
Amanda Brady Ford, Romeel Davé, Benjamin D. Oppenheimer +4
We examine how HI and metal absorption lines within low-redshift galaxy halos trace the dynamical state of circumgalactic gas, using cosmological hydrodynamic simulations that incl…
Dust properties of Lyman break galaxies in cosmological simulations
Hidenobu Yajima, Kentaro Nagamine, Robert Thompson +1
Recent observations have indicated the existence of dust in high-redshift galaxies, however, the dust properties in them are still unknown. Here we present theoretical constraints…
Impact of H_2-based star formation model on the z>=6 luminosity function and the ionizing photon budget for reionization
Jason Jaacks, Robert Thompson, Kentaro Nagamine
We present the results of a numerical study examining the effect of H_2-based star formation (SF) model on the rest-frame UV luminosity function and star formation rate function (S…
Molecular hydrogen regulated star formation in cosmological SPH simulations
Robert Thompson, Kentaro Nagamine, Jason Jaacks +1
It has been shown observationally that star formation (SF) correlates tightly with the presence of molecular hydrogen (H). Therefore it would be important to investigate its im…
