Cool outflows in galaxies and their implications

S Veilleux, R Maiolino, AD Bolatto, S Aalto - The Astronomy and …, 2020 - Springer
Neutral-atomic and molecular outflows are a common occurrence in galaxies, near and far.
They operate over the full extent of their galaxy hosts, from the innermost regions of galactic …

The Dawes Review 9: The role of cold gas strip** on the star formation quenching of satellite galaxies

L Cortese, B Catinella, R Smith - Publications of the Astronomical …, 2021 - cambridge.org
One of the key open questions in extragalactic astronomy is what stops star formation in
galaxies. While it is clear that the cold gas reservoir, which fuels the formation of new stars …

The structure of multiphase galactic winds

DB Fielding, GL Bryan - The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a novel analytic framework to model the steady-state structure of multiphase
galactic winds comprised of a hot, volume-filling component and a cold, clumpy component …

Resolving small-scale cold circumgalactic gas in TNG50

D Nelson, P Sharma, A Pillepich… - Monthly Notices of …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
We use the high-resolution TNG50 cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulation to
explore the properties and origin of cold circumgalactic medium (CGM) gas around massive …

[PDF][PDF] The growth and entrainment of cold gas in a hot wind

M Gronke, SP Oh - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
Both absorption and emission-line studies show that cold gas around galaxies is commonly
outflowing at speeds of several hundred km s− 1. This observational fact poses a severe …

A unified model for galactic discs: star formation, turbulence driving, and mass transport

MR Krumholz, B Burkhart, JC Forbes… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
We introduce a new model for the structure and evolution of the gas in galactic discs. In the
model the gas is in vertical pressure and energy balance. Star formation feedback injects …

Gaseous galaxy halos

ME Putman, JEG Peek, MR Joung - Annual Review of …, 2012 - annualreviews.org
Galactic halo gas traces inflowing star-formation fuel and feedback from a galaxy's disk and
is therefore crucial to our understanding of galaxy evolution. In this review, we summarize …

How cold gas continuously entrains mass and momentum from a hot wind

M Gronke, SP Oh - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
The existence of fast moving, cold gas ubiquitously observed in galactic winds is
theoretically puzzling, since the destruction time of cold gas is much smaller than its …

The launching of cold clouds by galaxy outflows. I. Hydrodynamic interactions with radiative cooling

E Scannapieco, M Brüggen - The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
To better understand the nature of the multiphase material found in outflowing galaxies, we
study the evolution of cold clouds embedded in flows of hot and fast material. Using a suite …
