Effects of cosmological parameters and star formation models on the cosmic star formation history in ΛCDM cosmological simulations
We investigate the effects of cosmological parameters and star formation (SF) models on the cosmic SF history using cosmological smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations based on the cold dark matter (CDM) model. We vary the cosmological parameters within 1-σ error from the WMAP5 best-fit parameters, and find that such changes in cosmological parameters mostly affect the amplitude of t...
متن کاملStar Formation History of Dwarf Galaxies in Cosmological Hydrodynamic Simulations
We examine the past and current work on the star formation (SF) histories of dwarf galaxies in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. The results obtained from different numerical methods are still somewhat mixed, but the differences are understandable if we consider the numerical and resolution effects. It remains a challenge to simulate the episodic nature of SF history in dwarf galaxies at l...
متن کاملCosmic Star-Formation History
I review some recent progress made in our understanding of galaxy evolution and the cosmic history of star formation. Like bookends, the results obtained from deep ground-based spectroscopy and from the Hubble Deep Field imaging survey put brackets around the intermediate redshift interval, 1 < z < 2, where starbirth probably peaked at a rate 10 times higher than today. The steady decline obser...
متن کاملModeling Molecular Hydrogen and Star Formation in Cosmological Simulations
We describe a phenomenological model for molecular hydrogen formation suited for applications in galaxy formation simulations, which includes non-equilibrium formation of H2 on dust and approximate treatment of both its self-shielding and shielding by dust from the dissociating UV radiation. The model is applicable in simulations in which individual star forming regions – the giant molecular co...
متن کاملNumerical simulations of the cosmic star formation history
The cosmic star formation history in Cold Dark Matter dominated cosmological scenarios is studied by means of hydrodynamical numerical simulations. In particular, we explore a low density model with a Λ-term and two high density models with different power spectra, all of them being spatially flat. Our simulations employ a fully nonlinear N-body and Eulerian hydrodynamics algorithm with a model...
