Several studies have suggested that energy injection by time-variable stellar feedback can significantly affect the inner profiles of dark matter halos, especially in dwarf galaxies. …
One of the key aspects of the FIRE simulations is that the explicit implementation of stellar feedback processes (photoionization, radiation pressure, stellar winds, and supernovae) …
The FIRE simulations are uniquely well suited for studies of the circum-galactic medium (CGM), where the cosmological inflows and galactic winds that regulate star formation …
On July 24-26, CIERA hosted a workshop for the FIRE project at Northwestern University. This workshop brought together FIRE collaborators and enabled us to make …
In a new paper (van de Voort et al.), available on the arXiv, we use simulations of a Milky Way-mass galaxy from the FIRE project …
