Enriching the hot circumgalactic medium [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013 Models of galaxy formation in a CDM universe predict that massive galaxies are surrounded by a hot, quasi-hydrostatic circumgalactic corona of slowly cooling gas, predominantly accreted from the IGM. This prediction is borne out by the cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of Crain et al., which reproduce scaling relations between the X-ray and ...

Asymmetric eROSITA bubbles as the evidence of a circumgalactic medium wind [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 The origins of the pair of X-ray bubbles, called eROSITA bubbles (eRBs), detected in the halo of Milky Way are debated. Here, the authors show hydrodynamical simulations suggesting circumgalactic medium wind model can explain asymmetric eRBs.

Magnetizing the circumgalactic medium of disc galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is one of the frontiers of galaxy formation and intimately connected to the galaxy via accretion of gas on to the galaxy and gaseous outflows from the galaxy. Here, we analyse the magnetic field in the CGM of the Milky Way-like galaxies simulated as part of the auriga project that constitutes a ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Observed breakBRD (“break bulges in red disks”) galaxies are a nearby sample of face-on disk galaxies with particularly centrally concentrated star formation: they have red disks but recent star formation in their centers as measured by the D _n 4000 ...

Efficiency of thermal conduction in a magnetized circumgalactic medium [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021 ABSTRACT The large temperature difference between cold gas clouds around galaxies and the hot haloes that they are moving through suggests that thermal conduction could play an important role in the circumgalactic medium. However, thermal conduction in the presence of a magnetic field is highly anisotropic, being strongly suppressed in ...

The Circumgalactic Medium of Andromeda [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2016 AbstractOur view of galaxies has been transformed in recent years with diffuse halo gas surrounding galaxies that contains at least as many metals and baryons as their disks. While single sight lines through galaxy halos seen in absorption have provided key new constraints, they provide only average properties. Our massive neighbor, the Andromeda (M31)

THE IMPACT OF STARBURSTS ON THE CIRCUMGALACTIC MEDIUM [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 We present a study exploring the impact of a starburst on the properties of the surrounding circum-galactic medium (CGM): gas located beyond the galaxy's stellar body and extending out to the virial radius (200 kpc). We obtained ultraviolet spectroscopic data from the Cosmic Origin Spectrograph (COS) probing the CGM of 20 low-redshift foreground ...

The low-redshift circumgalactic medium in
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021 ABSTRACT We examine the properties of the low-redshift circumgalactic medium (CGM) around star-forming and quenched galaxies in the simba cosmological hydrodynamic simulations, focusing on comparing H i and metal line absorption to observations from the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS)-Halos and COS-Dwarfs surveys.

Turbulence in the intragroup and circumgalactic medium [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 Context. In massive objects, such as galaxy clusters, the turbulent velocity dispersion, σturb, is tightly correlated to both the object mass, M, and the thermal energy. Aims. Here, we investigate whether these scaling laws extend to lower-mass objects in dark-matter filaments. Methods.
