The distribution of metals in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of dwarf disc galaxies

Pilkington, K.; Gibson, Brad K.; Brook, C. B.; Calura, F.; Stinson, G. S.; Thacker, Robert John, 1970-; Michel-Dansac, L.; Bailin, J.; Couchman, H. M. P.; Wadsley, J. (Oxford University Press, 2012-09)

We examine the chemical properties of five cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of an M33-like disc galaxy which have been shown previously to be consistent with the morphological characteristics and bulk scaling relations ...
Effective viscosity from cloud–cloud collisions in 3D global smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations

Williamson, David John; Thacker, Robert John, 1970- (Oxford Academic, 2012-04)

Analytic estimates of the viscous time-scale due to cloud–cloud collisions have been as high as thousands of Gyr. Consequently, cloud collisions are widely ignored as a source of viscosity in galactic discs. However, ...
MAGICC haloes: confronting simulations with observations of the circumgalactic medium at z = 0

Stinson, G. S.; Brook, C.; Prochaska, J. Xavier; Hennawi, Joe; Shen, Sijing; Wadsley, J.; Pontzen, Andrew; Couchman, H. M. P.; Quinn, T.; Maccio, Andrea V.; Gibson, Brad K. (Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-09)

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. These simulations are ...
