On the minimum number of radiation field parameters to specify gas cooling and heating functions

Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: David Robinson, Camille Avestruz, Nickolay Y. Gnedin, , | Summary: Fast and accurate approximations of gas cooling and heating functions are needed for hydrodynamic galaxy simulations. We use machine learning to analyze atomic gas cooling and heating functions in the presence of a generalized incident local […]

On the dark matter content of ultra-diffuse galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Andrey Kravtsov, , , , | Summary: I compare the dark matter content within stellar half-mass radius expected in a $Lambda$CDM-based galaxy formation model with existing observational estimates for the observed dwarf satellites of the Milky Way and ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). The model reproduces the main properties […]
