We use hydrodynamical simulations of two Milky Way-mass galaxies to demonstrate the impact of cosmic-ray pressure on the kinematics of cool and warm circumgalactic gas. Consistent with previous studies, we find that cosmic-ray pressure can…
Flux limited X-ray surveys of galaxy clusters show that clusters come in two roughly equally proportioned varieties: "cool core" clusters (CCs) and non-"cool core" clusters (NCCs). In previous work, we have demonstrated using cosmological…
Self-consistently modeling baryonic effects in survey-scale cosmological simulations has become increasingly important as the diversity, precision, and statistical reach of modern observations continue to improve. The advent of exascale…

We study gas mixing in a simulated Milky Way-mass galaxy's circumgalactic medium (CGM) using cosmological `zoom-in' simulations. We insert tracer dyes in the CGM with different gas flows (shearing, coherent, and static) and diverse physical…
We analyse the properties of circumgalactic gas around simulated galaxies in the redshift range z >= 3, utilising a new sample of cosmological zoom simulations. These simulations are intended to be representative of the observed samples of…
The impact of AGN feedback on the hot gas content of galaxy groups remains a key uncertainty in galaxy formation and its connection to the large scale structure of the Universe. We aim to compare the XMM-Newton Group AGN Project (X-GAP)…
