Code Comparison in Galaxy Scale Simulations with Resolved Supernova Feedback: Lagrangian vs. Eulerian Methods
Chia-Yu Hu, Matthew C. Smith, Romain Teyssier +8
We present a suite of high-resolution simulations of an isolated dwarf galaxy using four different hydrodynamical codes: {\sc Gizmo}, {\sc Arepo}, {\sc Gadget}, and {\sc Ramses}. A…
"Observations" of simulated dwarf galaxies: Star-formation histories from color-magnitude diagrams
Shivangee Rathi, Michele Mastropietro, Sven De Rijcke +3
Apparent deviations between properties of dwarf galaxies from observations and simulations are known to exist, such as the "Missing Dwarfs" problem, the too-big-to-fail problem, an…
EDGE: the mass-metallicity relation as a critical test of galaxy formation physics
Oscar Agertz, Andrew Pontzen, Justin I. Read +7
We introduce the "Engineering Dwarfs at Galaxy formation's Edge" (EDGE) project to study the cosmological formation and evolution of the smallest galaxies in the Universe. In this…
A new astrophysical solution to the Too Big To Fail problem - Insights from the MoRIA simulations
Robbert Verbeke, Emmanouil Papastergis, Anastasia A. Ponomareva +2
We test whether advanced galaxy models and analysis techniques of simulations can alleviate the Too Big To Fail problem (TBTF) for late-type galaxies, which states that isolated dw…
Constraining the subgrid physics in simulations of isolated dwarf galaxies
Bert Vandenbroucke, Robbert Verbeke, Sven De Rijcke
Simulating dwarf galaxy halos in a reionizing Universe puts severe constraints on the sub-grid model employed in the simulations. Using the same sub-grid model that works for simul…
How the first stars shaped the faintest gas-dominated dwarf galaxies
Robbert Verbeke, Bert Vandenbroucke, Sven De Rijcke
Low-mass dwarf galaxies are very sensitive test-beds for theories of cosmic structure formation since their weak gravitational fields allow the effects of the relevant physical pro…
Numerical simulations of dwarf galaxy merger trees
Annelies Cloet-Osselaer, Sven De Rijcke, Bert Vandenbroucke +3
We investigate the evolution of dwarf galaxies using N -body/SPH simulations that incorporate their formation histories through merger trees constructed using the ex- tended Press-…
Gaseous infall triggering starbursts in simulated dwarf galaxies
Robbert Verbeke, Sven De Rijcke, Mina Koleva +3
Using computer simulations, we explored gaseous infall as a possible explanation for the starburst phase in Blue Compact Dwarf galaxies. We simulate a cloud impact by merging a sph…
