QWIND3: UV line-driven accretion disc wind models for AGN feedback (2022)
Journal Article
Quera-Bofarull, A., Done, C., Lacey, C. G., Nomura, M., & Ohsuga, K. (2023). QWIND3: UV line-driven accretion disc wind models for AGN feedback. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(2), 2693-2711. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3171

The ultraviolet (UV) bright accretion disc in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) should give rise to line driving, producing a powerful wind that may play an important role in AGN feedback as well as in producing structures like the broad-line region. How... Read More about QWIND3: UV line-driven accretion disc wind models for AGN feedback.

The buildup of galaxies and their spheroids: The contributions of mergers, disc instabilities, and star formation (2022)
Journal Article
Huško, F., Lacey, C. G., & Baugh, C. M. (2023). The buildup of galaxies and their spheroids: The contributions of mergers, disc instabilities, and star formation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(4), 5323-5339. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3152

We use the GALFORM semi-analytical model of galaxy formation and the Planck-Millennium simulation to investigate the origins of stellar mass in galaxies and their spheroids. We compare the importance of mergers and disc instabilities, as well as the...

Spin-driven jet feedback in idealized simulations of galaxy groups and clusters (2022)
Journal Article
Huško, F., Lacey, C. G., Schaye, J., Schaller, M., & Nobels, F. S. (2022). Spin-driven jet feedback in idealized simulations of galaxy groups and clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 516(3), 3750 - 3772. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2278

We implement a black hole spin evolution and jet feedback model into SWIFT, a smoothed particle hydrodynamics code. The jet power is determined self-consistently assuming that the black hole accretion rate is equal to the Bondi rate (i.e. the accreti...

The spatial distribution of satellites in galaxy clusters (2022)
Journal Article
Gu, Q., Guo, Q., Zhang, T., Cautun, M., Lacey, C., Frenk, C. S., & Shao, S. (2022). The spatial distribution of satellites in galaxy clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 514(1), 390-402. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac1292

The planar distributions of satellite galaxies around the Milky Way and Andromeda have been extensively studied as potential challenges to the standard cosmological model. Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Millennium simulation, we extend su... Read More about The spatial distribution of satellites in galaxy clusters.
