Exploring the Evolution of a Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy with SPH Simulations. II. AGN Feedback

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback from an intermediate-mass black hole at the center of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy, by performing isolated galaxy simulations using a modified version of the GADGET-3 code. We consider Leo II (PGC 34176)

Intermediate report on the Delphi study: Findings from the 2nd and the 3rd STELLAR Delphi rounds: Areas of tension and core research areas

open access: yes, 2011
This intermediate report on the STELLAR Delphi study closes the gap between the first deliverable on the Delphi study D1.3 (Spada et al. 2010) which was published in July 2010 and the second and final deliverable D1.6 which is planned for January 2012 ...

Stellar Evolution with Radiative Feedback in AGN Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stars embedded in the inner parsec region of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) experience extreme accretion conditions that significantly alter their evolution.

The properties of the ISM in disc galaxies with stellar feedback

open access: yes, 2011
We perform calculations of isolated disc galaxies to investigate how the properties of the ISM, the nature of molecular clouds, and the global star formation rate depend on the level of stellar feedback. We adopt a simple physical model, which includes a galactic potential, a standard cooling and heating prescription of the ISM, and self gravity of the

FEASTS Compared with Simulations: Abnormally Irregular and Extended H i Morphologies at a Column Density of 1018 cm−2 in TNG50 and Auriga

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
With new atomic-hydrogen (H i ) observations of FAST Extended Atlas of Selected Targets Survey (FEASTS), we present the first statistical comparison of H i morphology between observations and cosmological simulations, focusing on low-column-density (∼10 ^

Investigating the Impact of Supernova Feedback on Satellites in Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the influence of supernova (SN) feedback on the satellites of elliptical host galaxies using hydrodynamic simulations. Utilizing a modified version of the GADGET-3 code, we perform cosmological zoom-in simulations of 11 elliptical galaxies

How stellar feedback simultaneously regulates star formation and drives outflows

open access: yes, 2017
Stellar-feedback-driven outflows are thought to be a crucial process in galaxy formation, but our physical understanding of them is still rudimentary. I will present an analytical model for how stellar feedback simultaneously regulates star formation and

Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback-induced Stellar Density Expansion in the Inner Regions of Early-type Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Observations indicate that early-type galaxies exhibit varying slopes in the relation between their central stellar surface density and stellar mass (Σ _1 – M _⋆ ).

The nature and origin of disky elliptical galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The observational trend that disky elliptical galaxies exhibit younger luminosity- weighted ages than boxy ellipticals is investigated. The presence of a possible young stellar disk embedded in these galaxies is explored by comparing kinematics derived ...

Testable Predictions of Outside-in Age Gradients in Dwarf Galaxies of All Types

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We use a sample of 73 simulated satellite and central dwarf galaxies spanning a stellar mass range of 10 ^5.3 –10 ^9.1 M _⊙ to investigate the origin of their stellar age gradients.
