Swift: A modern highly-parallel gravity and smoothed particle hydrodynamics solver for astrophysical and cosmological applications. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 530(2), 2378–2419. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae922

Numerical simulations have become one of the key tools used by theorists in all the fields of astrophysics and cosmology. The development of modern tools that target the largest existing computing systems and exploit state-of-the-art numerical method...

Winds versus jets: a comparison between black hole feedback modes in simulations of idealized galaxy groups and clusters (2023)
Journal Article
Huško, F., Lacey, C. G., Schaye, J., Nobels, F. S. J., & Schaller, M. (2024). Winds versus jets: a comparison between black hole feedback modes in simulations of idealized galaxy groups and clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 527(3), 5988–6020. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad3548

Using the SWIFT simulation code, we compare the effects of different forms of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) feedback in idealized galaxy groups and clusters. We first present a physically motivated model of black hole (BH) spin evolution and a numeri...

The FLAMINGO project: cosmological hydrodynamical simulations for large-scale structure and galaxy cluster surveys (2023)
Journal Article
Schaye, J., Kugel, R., Schaller, M., Helly, . J. C., Braspenning, J., Elbers, W., …Nobels, F. S. J. (2023). The FLAMINGO project: cosmological hydrodynamical simulations for large-scale structure and galaxy cluster surveys. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 526(4), 4978–5020. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad2419

We introduce the Virgo Consortium’s FLAMINGO suite of hydrodynamical simulations for cosmology and galaxy cluster physics. To ensure the simulations are sufficiently realistic for studies of large-scale structure, the subgrid prescriptions for stella...

The complex interplay of AGN jet-inflated bubbles and the intracluster medium (2023)
Journal Article
Huško, F., & Lacey, C. G. (2023). The complex interplay of AGN jet-inflated bubbles and the intracluster medium. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 521(3), 4375-4394. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad793

We use SWIFT, a smoothed particle hydrodynamics code, to simulate the evolution of bubbles inflated by active galactic nuclei (AGNs) jets, as well as their interactions with the ambient intracluster medium (ICM). These jets inflate lobes that turn in... Read More about The complex interplay of AGN jet-inflated bubbles and the intracluster medium.

Active galactic nuclei jets simulated with smoothed particle hydrodynamics (2023)
Journal Article
Huško, F., & Lacey, C. G. (2023). Active galactic nuclei jets simulated with smoothed particle hydrodynamics. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 520(4), 5090-5109. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad450

Simulations of active galactic nuclei (AGN) jets have thus far been performed almost exclusively using grid-based codes. We present the first results from hydrodynamical tests of AGN jets, and their interaction with the intracluster medium (ICM), usi...

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

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...

Statistics of galaxy mergers: bridging the gap between theory and observation (2021)
Journal Article

We present a study of galaxy mergers up to z = 10 using the Planck Millennium cosmological dark matter simulation and the GALFORM semi-analytical model of galaxy formation. Utilizing the full 800 Mpc3 volume of the simulation, we studied the statisti... Read More about Statistics of galaxy mergers: bridging the gap between theory and observation.
