The MOSDEF Survey: Broad Emission Lines at z=1.4-3.8

William R. Freeman, Brian Siana, Mariska Kriek +12

We present results from the MOSFIRE Deep Evolution Field (MOSDEF) survey on broad flux from the nebular emission lines H, [NII], [OIII], H, and [SII]. The sample consists of…

Metal flows of the circumgalactic medium, and the metal budget in galactic halos

Alexander L. Muratov, Dusan Keres, Claude-Andre Faucher-Giguere +8

We present an analysis of the flow of metals through the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in the Feedback in Realistic Environments (FIRE) simulations of galaxy formation, ranging from…

Strongly Time-Variable Ultra-Violet Metal Line Emission from the Circum-Galactic Medium of High-Redshift Galaxies

N. Sravan, C. -A. Faucher-Giguere, F. van de Voort +6

We use cosmological simulations from the Feedback In Realistic Environments (FIRE) project, which implement a comprehensive set of stellar feedback processes, to study ultra-violet…

(Star)bursts of FIRE: observational signatures of bursty star formation in galaxies

Martin Sparre, Christopher C. Hayward, Robert Feldmann +4

Galaxy formation models are now able to reproduce observed relations such as the relation between galaxies' star formation rates (SFRs) and stellar masses () and the stellar m…

Neutral hydrogen in galaxy halos at the peak of the cosmic star formation history

C. -A. Faucher-Giguere, P. F. Hopkins, D. Keres +3

We use high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations from the FIRE project to make predictions for the covering fractions of neutral hydrogen around galaxies at z=2-4. These sim…

Modeling the Metallicity Distribution of Globular Clusters

Alexander L. Muratov, Oleg Y. Gnedin

Observed metallicities of globular clusters reflect physical conditions in the interstellar medium of their high-redshift host galaxies. Globular cluster systems in most large gala…
