Woven by the Whirls: The growth and entrainment of cold clouds in turbulent hot winds
Ritali Ghosh, Max Gronke, Prateek Sharma +1
Galactic and intergalactic flows often exhibit relative motion between the cold dense gas and the hot diffuse medium. Such multiphase flows -- involving gas at different temperatur…

Ram pressure stripping in clusters: Gravity can bind the ISM but not the CGM
Ritali Ghosh, Alankar Dutta, Prateek Sharma
We explore the survival of a galaxy's circumgalactic medium (CGM) as it experiences ram pressure stripping (RPS) moving through the intracluster medium (ICM). For a satellite galax…

Beyond radial profiles: Using log-normal distributions to model the multiphase circumgalactic medium
Alankar Dutta, Mukesh Singh Bisht, Prateek Sharma +3
Recent observations and simulations reveal that the circumgalactic medium (CGM) surrounding galaxies is multiphase, with the gas temperatures spanning a wide range at most radii, $…
