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 …
