The evolution of the oxygen abundance gradients in star-forming galaxies in the eagle simulations (2021)
Journal Article
Tissera, P. B., Rosas-Guevara, Y., Sillero, E., Pedrosa, S. E., Theuns, T., & Bignone, L. (2022). The evolution of the oxygen abundance gradients in star-forming galaxies in the eagle simulations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 511(2), 1667-1684. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab3644

We analyse the evolution of the oxygen abundance gradient of star-forming galaxies with stellar mass M∗≥109M⊙ in the EAGLE simulation over the redshift range z = [0, 2.5]. We find that the median metallicity gradient of the simulated galaxies is clos... Read More about The evolution of the oxygen abundance gradients in star-forming galaxies in the eagle simulations.

Metal-enriched halo gas across galaxy overdensities over the last 10 billion years (2021)
Journal Article
Dutta, R., Fumagalli, M., Fossati, M., Bielby, R. M., Stott, J. P., Lofthouse, E. K., Cantalupo, S., Cullen, F., Crain, R. A., Tripp, T. M., Prochaska, J. X., Arrigoni Battaia, F., Burchett, J. N., Fynbo, J. P., Murphy, M. T., Schaye, J., Tejos, N., & Theuns, T. (2021). Metal-enriched halo gas across galaxy overdensities over the last 10 billion years. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 508(3), 4573-4599. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab2752

We present a study of metal-enriched halo gas traced by Mg II and C IV absorption at z < 2 in the MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies survey and the Quasar Sightline and Galaxy Evolution survey. Using these large and complete galaxy surveys in quasa... Read More about Metal-enriched halo gas across galaxy overdensities over the last 10 billion years.

Smoothed particle radiation hydrodynamics: two-moment method with local Eddington tensor closure (2021)
Journal Article
Chan, T., Theuns, T., Bower, R., & Frenk, C. (2021). Smoothed particle radiation hydrodynamics: two-moment method with local Eddington tensor closure. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 505(4), 5784-5814. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab1686

We present a new smoothed particle hydrodynamics-radiative transfer method (SPH-M1RT) that is coupled dynamically with SPH. We implement it in the (task-based parallel) SWIFT galaxy simulation code but it can be straightforwardly implemented in other...

MUSE analysis of gas around galaxies (MAGG) – III. The gas and galaxy environment of z = 3–4.5 quasars (2021)
Journal Article
Fossati, M., Fumagalli, M., Lofthouse, E., Dutta, R., Cantalupo, S., Arrigoni Battaia, F., Fynbo, J., Lusso, E., Murphy, M., Prochaska, J., Theuns, T., & Cooke, R. (2021). MUSE analysis of gas around galaxies (MAGG) – III. The gas and galaxy environment of z = 3–4.5 quasars. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 503(2), 3044-3064. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab660

We present a study of the environment of 27 z = 3–4.5 bright quasars from the MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) survey. With medium-depth Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) observations (4 h on target per field), we characterize the e... Read More about MUSE analysis of gas around galaxies (MAGG) – III.
