We present the modules for stellar nucleosynthesis, stellar mass loss, and turbulent diffusion of the new COLIBRE subgrid model for cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation. COLIBRE models the thermal evolution of the…

We study the effects of Supernova (SN) feedback on the formation of galaxies using hydrodynamical simulations in a Lambda-CDM cosmology. We use an extended version of the code GADGET-2 which includes chemical enrichment and energy feedback…

One of the complexities in modelling integrated spectra of stellar populations is the effect of interacting binary stars besides type Ia supernovae (SNeIa). These include common envelope systems, CVs, novae, and are usually ignored in…
