It has recently become possible to zoom-in from cosmological sub-pc scales in galaxy simulations follow accretion onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs). However, at some point the approximations used on ISM (e.g. optically-thin cooling and stellar-population-integrated star formation [SF] feedback [FB]) break down. We therefore present first radiation-magnetohydrodynamic (RMHD) simulation which self-consistently combines FIRE physics (relevant galactic/ISM where SF/FB are ensemble-averaged)...

ABSTRACT ‘Runaway stars’ might play a role in driving galactic outflows and enriching the circumgalactic medium with metals. To study this effect, we carry out high-resolution dwarf galaxy simulations that include velocity ‘kicks’ to massive stars above eigth solar masses. We consider two scenarios, one adopts power law distribution for kick velocities, resulting more high-velocity kicks, moderate scenario Maxwellian distribution. explicitly resolve multiphase interstellar (ISM)...
