Uncertainties in Galactic Chemical Evolution Models
Benoit Côté, Christian Ritter, Brian W. O'Shea +4
We use a simple one-zone galactic chemical evolution model to quantify the uncertainties generated by the input parameters in numerical predictions, for a galaxy with properties si…
The Caterpillar Project: A Large Suite of Milky Way Sized Halos
Brendan F. Griffen, Alexander P. Ji, Gregory A. Dooley +4
We present the largest number of Milky Way sized dark matter halos simulated at very high mass ( M/particle) and temporal resolution (5 Myrs/snapshot) don…
Precipitation-Regulated Star Formation in Galaxies
G. Mark Voit, Greg L. Bryan, Brian W. O'Shea +1
Galaxy growth depends critically on the interplay between radiative cooling of cosmic gas and the resulting energetic feedback that cooling triggers. This interplay has proven exce…
The First Population II Stars Formed in Externally Enriched Mini-halos
Britton Smith, John Wise, Brian O'Shea +2
We present a simulation of the formation of the earliest Population II stars, starting from cosmological initial conditions and ending when metals created in the first supernovae a…
Supernova Sweeping and Black-Hole Feedback in Elliptical Galaxies
G. M. Voit, M. Donahue, B. W. O'Shea +3
Most of the massive elliptical galaxies in the universe stopped forming stars billions of years ago, even though plenty of hot gas remains available for star formation. Here we pre…
Probing The Ultraviolet Luminosity Function of the Earliest Galaxies with the Renaissance Simulations
Brian W. O'Shea, John H. Wise, Hao Xu +1
In this paper, we present the first results from the Renaissance Simulations, a suite of extremely high-resolution and physics-rich AMR calculations of high redshift galaxy formati…
