We compare an analytic model for the evolution of supernova-driven superbubbles with observations of local and high-redshift galaxies, and the properties of intact HI shells in local star-forming galaxies. Our model correctly predicts the…

Feedback is indispensable in galaxy formation. However, lacking resolutions, cosmological simulations often use ad hoc feedback parameters. Conversely, small-box simulations, while better resolving the feedback, cannot capture gas evolution…

We use a disk galaxy evolution model to investigate the impact of mass outflows (a.k.a. feedback) on disk galaxy scaling relations. Our model follows the accretion, cooling, star formation and ejection of baryonic mass inside growing dark…

Effective stellar feedback is used in models of galaxy formation to drive realistic galaxy evolution. Models typically include energy injection from supernovae as the dominant form of stellar feedback, often in some form of sub-grid recipe.…

A model of supernovae feedback during disc galaxy formation is developed. The model incorporates infall of cooling gas from a halo and outflow of hot gas from a multiphase interstellar medium and a self-regulated model for star formation.…
