ELUCID VIII: Simulating the Coma Galaxy Cluster to Calibrate Model and Understand Feedback
Xiong Luo, Huiyuan Wang, Weiguang Cui +9
We conducted an investigation of the Coma cluster of galaxies by running a series of constrained hydrodynamic simulations with GIZMO-SIMBA and GADGET-3, based on initial conditions…
Effect of radiation drag on the line-force-driven winds
Bei-Chuan Wang, Xiao-Hong Yang, De-Fu Bu +1
Ultra-fast outflows (UFOs) with mildly relativistic velocities are measured using the X-ray spectra of radio-quiet and -loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs). In general, UFOs are bel…
ELUCID VII: Using Constrained Hydro Simulations to Explore the Gas Component of the Cosmic Web
Renjie Li, Huiyuan Wang, H. J. Mo +8
Using reconstructed initial conditions in the SDSS survey volume, we carry out constrained hydrodynamic simulations in three regions representing different types of the cosmic web:…
A New Model For Including Galactic Winds in Simulations of Galaxy Formation II: Implementation of PhEW in Cosmological Simulations
Shuiyao Huang, Neal Katz, J'Neil Cottle +3
Although galactic winds play a critical role in regulating galaxy formation, hydrodynamic cosmological simulations do not resolve the scales that govern the interaction between win…
A New Model For Including Galactic Winds in Simulations of Galaxy Formation I: Introducing the Physically Evolved Winds (PhEW) Model
Shuiyao Huang, Neal Katz, Evan Scannapieco +5
The propagation and evolution of cold galactic winds in galactic haloes is crucial to galaxy formation models. However, modelling of this process in hydrodynamic simulations of gal…
The Impact of Wind Scalings on Stellar Growth and the Baryon Cycle in Cosmological Simulations
Shuiyao Huang, Neal Katz, Romeel Davé +5
Many phenomenologically successful cosmological galaxy formation simulations employ kinetic winds to model galactic outflows, a crucial ingredient in obtaining predictions that agr…
The Robustness of Cosmological Hydrodynamic Simulation Predictions to Changes in Numerics and Cooling Physics
Shuiyao Huang, Neal Katz, Romeel Davé +8
We test and improve the numerical schemes in our smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code for cosmological simulations, including the pressure-entropy formulation (PESPH), a time…
ELUCID IV: Galaxy Quenching and its Relation to Halo Mass, Environment, and Assembly Bias
Huiyuan Wang, H. J. Mo, Sihan Chen +17
We examine the quenched fraction of central and satellite galaxies as a function of galaxy stellar mass, halo mass, and the matter density of their large scale environment. Matter…
nIFTy galaxy cluster simulations V: Investigation of the Cluster Infall Region
Jake Arthur, Frazer R. Pearce, Meghan E. Gray +19
We examine the properties of the galaxies and dark matter haloes residing in the cluster infall region surrounding the simulated CDM galaxy cluster studied by Elahi et al. (2016…
The Minimum Halo Mass for Star Formation at z = 6 - 8
K. Finlator, M. K. M. Prescott, B. D. Oppenheimer +6
Recent analysis of strongly-lensed sources in the Hubble Frontier Fields indicates that the rest-frame UV luminosity function of galaxies at 6--8 rises as a power law down to $…
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…
nIFTy Galaxy Cluster simulations IV: Quantifying the Influence of Baryons on Halo Properties
Weiguang Cui, Chris Power, Alexander Knebe +21
Building on the initial results of the nIFTy simulated galaxy cluster comparison, we compare and contrast the impact of baryonic physics with a single massive galaxy cluster, run w…
