The circumgalactic medium

J Tumlinson, MS Peeples… - Annual Review of …, 2017 - annualreviews.org
The gas surrounding galaxies outside their disks or interstellar medium and inside their virial
radii is known as the circumgalactic medium (CGM). In recent years this component of …

The Magellanic stream: circumnavigating the galaxy

E D'Onghia, AJ Fox - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2016 - annualreviews.org

The circumgalactic medium of Milky Way-like galaxies in the TNG50 simulation–II. Cold, dense gas clouds and high-velocity cloud analogs

R Ramesh, D Nelson, A Pillepich - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We use the TNG50 simulation of the IllustrisTNG project to study cold, dense clouds of gas in
the circumgalactic media (CGM) of Milky Way-like galaxies. We find that their CGM is …

Gas accretion via condensation and fountains

F Fraternali - Gas Accretion onto Galaxies, 2017 - Springer
For most of their lives, galaxies are surrounded by large and massive coronae of hot gas,
which constitute vast reservoirs for gas accretion. This chapter describes a mechanism that …
