Title: Chemodynamical simulations of disc galaxies
Speaker: Awat Rahimi (NAOC)
Time: Monday ,10:00am,Dec. 23, 2013
Location: the small conference room
Abstract:
I will give a brief overview of our new Galactic Chemodynamical evolution code GCD+, which is a powerful tool for studies of galaxy formation and evolution. GCD+ includes self-consistently almost all of the important processes in galaxy formation, such as self-gravity, hydrodynamics, radiative cooling, star formation, SNe feedback and metal enrichment. I will present analysis of the chemodynamical properties of stars found in both the bulge and disc regions of our simulated disc galaxies and show the importance of these results in terms of Galactic Archaeology and observations of the Milky Way. Running several isolated simulations of the late-type disc galaxy M33, we show the importance of higher energy feedback from supernovae and stellar winds in recovering observations of spiral galaxies.
I will also outline some other interesting work I am carrying out on Galactic Habitable Orbits and Visualisation of simulated data and finish with some current and planned future work.
