The natural emergence of the correlation between H2 and star formation rate surface densities in galaxy simulations
Alessandro Lupi, Stefano Bovino, Pedro R. Capelo +2
In this study, we present a suite of high-resolution numerical simulations of an isolated galaxy to test a sub-grid framework to consistently follow the formation and dissociation…
The effect of non-equilibrium metal cooling on the interstellar medium
Pedro R. Capelo, Stefano Bovino, Alessandro Lupi +2
By using a novel interface between the modern smoothed particle hydrodynamics code GASOLINE2 and the chemistry package KROME, we follow the hydrodynamical and chemical evolution of…
Massive Black Holes from Dissipative Dark Matter
Guido D'Amico, Paolo Panci, Alessandro Lupi +2
We show that a subdominant component of dissipative dark matter resembling the Standard Model can form many intermediate-mass black hole seeds during the first structure formation…
Simplified galaxy formation with mesh-less hydrodynamics
Alessandro Lupi, Marta Volonteri, Joseph Silk
Numerical simulations have become a necessary tool to describe the complex interactions among the different processes involved in galaxy formation and evolution, unfeasible via an…
The birth of a supermassive black hole binary
Hugo Pfister, Alessandro Lupi, Pedro R. Capelo +3
We study the dynamical evolution of supermassive black holes, in the late stage of galaxy mergers, from kpc to pc scales. In particular, we capture the formation of the binary, a n…
