MUGS2: 18 L* Galaxies

  • Cosmological zoom-in simulations, run using

GASOLINE2 (Wadsley+ 2017), in a WMAP3 cosmology

  • Initial conditions identical to MUGS (Stinson+ 2010),

run with “classic” SPH and blast-wave feedback

  • Virial Masses range from 3.7x1011 to 2.1x1012Msun
  • Variety of merger histories, spin parameters
  • 320pc softening, baryon mass resolution of

2.2x105Msun

Feedback Models Matter!

– No Feedback – Blastwave (Stinson+ 2006)

– Superbubble Feedback – Superbubble Feedback 2X Energy

  • g1536

– 8x1011 Msun virial mass – Last major merger at z=4 – Equal SN energy for Blastwave

and Superbubble

– Details in Keller+ 2015

Superbubble Feedback

  • Hot bubble is heated

by multiple SN

  • As bubble expands,

forms a cold & radiative shell

  • Shell is evaporated by

thermal conduction

Mass loading has universal scaling

  • Mass-loading begins to fall

from ~10 when disc is ~1010Msun, halo is ~2x1011Msun to << 1 in halos above ~1012Msun

  • SDSS observations fjnd

powerful AGN kick in here!

  • Dubois+ 2015 simulations

found AGN regulation began at 280 km/s bulge vesc at high z

How Gas Moves Through the CGM

  • Do outfmows escape

the halo?

– Wind vs. Fountain

  • Are they driven by

energy, momentum, or something else?

  • How does accreted

material interact with

  • utfmowing material?

What Governs CGM Flow?

  • Physics at work

– Energy/Momentum

injected by FB

– Gravity/Accretion Shock – Hydrodynamic Drag – Radiative Cooling – Buoyancy

  • Buoyancy can add OR

remove radial momentum!

  • Critical Timescales

– Cooling tcool – Gravitational Freefall tf – Brunt-Väisälä tbuouy Feedback Gravity Drag Cooling

Conclusions

  • Highly mass-loaded outfmows, especially at high-z, are

essential to forming realistic L* galaxies

– These outfmows cannot be driven by SN alone in halos more

massive than 1012 Msun

  • Entropy-driven winds, driven by buoyancy, behave quite

diferently than ballistic outfmows

– Gentle acceleration, low velocities – Long recycling times – Halo entropy exceeds superbubble entropy near 1012 Msun,

halting outfmows

  • Galaxy evolution involves chaotic physics: small-scale

stochasticity can pump large-scale changes
