Unveiling the population of massive quenched galaxies at in the COLIBRE simulations - I. Galaxy demographics
Ángel Chandro-Gómez, Claudia del P. Lagos, Chris Power +14
The James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered a substantial population of Massive (), Quenched Galaxies (MQGs) in the early Universe ($z \ge…
Kennicutt-Schmidt relation of galaxies over 13 billion years in the COLIBRE hydrodynamical simulations
Claudia del P. Lagos, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +16
We investigate the correlation between star formation rate (SFR) surface density and gas surface density (known as the Kennicutt-Schmidt, KS, relation) at kiloparsec (kpc) scales a…
Dynamical disequilibrium in dwarf galaxies: rethinking gas dynamics, rotation curves, and dark matter inference
Diego Dado, Kyle A. Oman, Katherine E. Harborne +9
We quantify departures from hydrodynamical and centrifugal equilibrium in the gas discs of low-mass () galaxies from the COLIBR…
Gravitational potential drives the concentration dependence of the stellar mass-halo mass relation
Kai Wang, Joop Schaye, Alejandro Benítez-Llambay +8
We investigate the origin of the scatter in the stellar mass-halo mass (SMHM) relation using the \colibre cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. At fixed halo mass, we find a cle…
The role of galactic winds fueling central starbursts and quasars in the FIRE cosmological simulations
Jonathan Mercedes-Feliz, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Boon Kiat Oh +7
Central starbursts and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are thought to be fueled by either galaxy interactions or secular processes in gravitationally unstable discs. We employ cosmolo…
Emission line tracers of galactic outflows driven by stellar feedback in simulations of isolated disk galaxies
Elliot L. Howatson, Alexander J. Richings, Elke Roediger +7
Hydrodynamic simulations can connect outflow observables to the physical conditions of outflowing gas. Here, we use simulations of isolated disk galaxies ranging from dwarf mass ($…
Non-explosive pre-supernova feedback in the COLIBRE model of galaxy formation
Alejandro Benítez-Llambay, Sylvia Ploeckinger, Joop Schaye +7
We present the implementation and testing of a subgrid non-explosive pre-supernova (NEPS) feedback module for the COLIBRE model of galaxy formation. The NEPS module incorporates th…
The HyLight model for hydrogen emission lines in simulated nebulae
Yuankang Liu, Tom Theuns, Tsang Keung Chan +2
Hydrogen recombination lines provide key diagnostics of ionized gas in galaxies, yet most hydrodynamical simulations estimate hydrogen level populations using interpolated emissivi…
The evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function and star formation rates in the COLIBRE simulations from redshift 17 to 0
Evgenii Chaikin, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +7
We investigate the evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function (GSMF) and star formation rates (SFRs) across cosmic time in the COLIBRE simulations of galaxy formation. COLIBRE i…
A hybrid active galactic nucleus feedback model with spinning black holes, winds and jets
Filip Huško, Cedric G. Lacey, Joop Schaye +6
We present a hybrid active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback model that features three accretion disc states (the thick, thin, and slim discs at low, moderate, and super-Eddington ac…
COLIBRE: calibrating subgrid feedback in cosmological simulations that include a cold gas phase
Evgenii Chaikin, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +17
We present the calibration of stellar and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback in the subgrid model for the new COLIBRE hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation. COLIBRE di…
The COLIBRE project: cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation and evolution
Joop Schaye, Evgenii Chaikin, Matthieu Schaller +18
We present the COLIBRE galaxy formation model and the COLIBRE suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. COLIBRE includes new models for radiative cooling, dust grains, star…
SPARCS -- combining radiation hydrodynamics with non-equilibrium metal chemistry in the SWIFT astrophysical code
Tsang Keung Chan, Alexander J. Richings, Tom Theuns +3
We present SPARCS, which combines the moment-based radiative transfer method SPH-M1RT with the non-equilibrium metal chemistry solver CHIMES in the modern highly-parallel astrophys…
Hybrid-chimes: A model for radiative cooling and the abundances of ions and molecules in simulations of galaxy formation
Sylvia Ploeckinger, Alexander J. Richings, Joop Schaye +3
Radiative processes play a pivotal role in shaping the thermal and chemical states of gas across diverse astrophysical environments, from the interstellar medium (ISM) to the inter…
Modelling the evolution and influence of dust in cosmological simulations that include the cold phase of the interstellar medium
James W. Trayford, Joop Schaye, Camila Correa +7
While marginal in mass terms, dust grains play an outsized role in both the physics and observation of the interstellar medium (ISM). However, explicit modelling of this ISM consti…
Hydrodynamic simulations of the Disc of Gas Around Supermassive black holes (HDGAS) -II; The transition from neutral atomic to molecular gas phases
Mojtaba Raouf, Serena Viti, Reihaneh Karimi +1
We use HDGAS hydrodynamic simulations to study the impact of active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback on the conversion of atomic-gas to molecular-gas within the circumnuclear-disc (…
