Thesis
On the importance of feedback in the stream-fed high redshift universe
- Abstract:
-
Cosmological hydrodynamic simulations have shown that galaxies are fed by dense, cold gas streams at high redshift. However, the presence of such gas has never been observationally confirmed.
Using the Horizon- MareNostrum simulation, I examined whether cold flows are detectable with low-ionisation metal absorption lines, such as C II 1334. It is concluded that due to their low metallicity and density, it is extremely difficult to prove/disprove the presence of cold flows using the ...
