MAGICC haloes: confronting simulations with observations of the circumgalactic medium at z=0
Greg Stinson, Chris Brook, J. Xavier Prochaska +8
We explore the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of two simulated star-forming galaxies with luminosities L ~ 0.1 and 1 L* generated using the smooth particle hydrodynamic code GASOLINE.…
Halo expansion in cosmological hydro simulations: towards a baryonic solution of the cusp/core problem in massive spirals
Andrea V. Maccio', Greg Stinson, Chris B. Brook +5
A clear prediction of the Cold Dark Matter model is the existence of cuspy dark matter halo density profiles on all mass scales. This is not in agreement with the observed rotation…
The origin of metals in the circum-galactic medium of massive galaxies at z=3
Sijing Shen, Piero Madau, Anthony Aguirre +3
We present a detailed study of the metal-enriched circum-galactic medium of a massive galaxy at z=3 using "ErisMC", a new cosmological hydrodynamic "zoom-in" simulations of a disk…
The First Massive Black Hole Seeds and Their Hosts
Jillian Bellovary, Marta Volonteri, Fabio Governato +3
We investigate the formation of the first massive black holes in high redshift galaxies, with the goal of providing insights to which galaxies do or do not host massive black holes…
