Making Galaxies In a Cosmological Context: the need for early stellar feedback
Abstract
We introduce the Making Galaxies In a Cosmological Context (MAGICC) programme of smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations. We describe a parameter study of galaxy formation simulations of an L* galaxy that uses early stellar feedback combined with supernova feedback to match the stellar mass–halo mass relationship. While supernova feedback alone can reduce star formation enough to match the stellar mass–halo mass relationship, the galaxy …
